ppl may not like it but he has a point about the "poor soilders" attitude.
bigley was at work, so were these soilders, as were the ppl in the WTC and so was Bob the trucker who crashed his van today on the M1.
if you start making political choices based on keeping ppl out of harms way then its all over.

Editted to add: How can you bring the WTC attack into this? So office workers have signed up to be the victims of terrorist attacks now?

Your shouting is embarasing, seriously. Please grow up and learn to debate rather than rant.

10 people die on the roads EVERY day!!
1 person is murdered
AT LEAST 3 people die while doing their job
Its sad that 3 Soldiers died ..... 3 may have died in Basra ..... a soldier probably died in this country on excerise ..... its sad and I feel for their families ................... but all this fake hysteria is vomit inducing crap!!
SO STOP IT NOW!

Blair didnt need to send them, it was a tiny number to send, and would make no REAL differnce in the war.
IT WAS DONE TO WIN VOTES.

"Right, so tragic accidents are being compared to a cynical political maneouvre that has lead to the needless deaths of 4 Black Watch troops?"
they were not moved there so they could die.

Do you understand what compassion means Pete?
3 families have lost loved ones and you have shown no compassion what so ever. You come across all smug and like you dont give a damn.

People dying on the roads or at work are accidents.
A suicide bomber blowing you to pieces is no accident.
I wonder what your feelings would be when a suicide bomber decides to hit britain....old trafford/wembley etc?
That just an accident too?

glad you called it a discussion and not a debate.
seems the thread was intended as a place to chat about dead soilders as opposed to the bigger picture and allow an oppertunity for differing views.

why were they moved?

I genuinely wish you would stop being so intentionaly abnoxious, your "style" destroys the posibility of people contributing, most of the time i just look at the threads like this and walk away, because there is no chance of decent discusions taking place as you shout people down.

No, I am not having a laugh! There's far too many cases of this sort of thing lately. It's not what SN is about, one person causing disruption and thus inviting insults to be the main content of a thread and I don't just mean Pete.
