"Thank you very much for admitting that so why the fuck did you make the comparison?? Totally irrelevant."

No - you make yourself sound thick when you say things like that, as if you don't understand the point.

Why the fuck don't you stop wriggling out of it?

Maybe you are that thick.

Are you that thick Teribus?


No - here's the truth!

Your son is in afghanistan, and you think that by admitting that there is any wrongdoing by "our" side that you are letting him down.

You will back up every move by "our side" so as to show solidarity with him, and you will pour hate, scorn and derision at anyone who points out the fucking obvious.

In this case that a bloodthirsty scumbag with a whole range of options available to him, chose to blow a load of people away without first making any effort to find out who they were or what they were doing - from 5km away.

You're backing him up because it could just as easily be your son at the controls.

I'm refusing to back him up because it could just as easily be anyones kids, including yours, in the van.

The van drove into a square, with no knowledge of what had happened there, and no knowledge of any apache gunshipsbuzzing on the horizon.

It saw devastation, and the people on board, who were civilians and knew NOTHING of military procedure, risk or hardware, saw a wounded journmalist probably screaming in pain and begging for help.

They stopped and helped.

But You say its somehow their fault?

"I take it then Don T that your reference to the two children who were wounded in the attack on the van indicates that you as a parent would have done exactly the same as the driver of that van? I know for an absolute bloody certainty that I would not have done had they been my children."

Yes - that is what you are saying!

Do you know why they were drining that way teribus?

Do you know where they were going?

NO!

YOU HAVE NO CLUE!

So are you in a position to make any judgement about them?

NO!

They were civilians trying to live their lives normally.

There was no air-raid, nor any sign of aircraft as they were 5km away.


I do NOT blame the dad.

I blame the bloodthirsty helicopter crews.

Only an idiot would blame an innocent passer by.
