Much as it boils my p1ss to hear a foreigner denigrating our country and armed forces, much as this cowboy needs a slap for his comments about Basra etc, much as his 'correct response' would get our lads executed pronto, he makes the point that thanks to Tony we're fighting with one hand tied behind our backs by being so overstretched and under-resourced. Yes, previous great leaders would turn in their graves at seeing what Tony has done to our forces.

However, I am pleased that our people are not exactly like the yanks. I am pleased that we do not rush in gung-ho to try and kick off a third war in the region (yet).

He should be careful about drawing any parallels to 1979 given the results of that Op. I'd like to see how this tosser would bear up to captivity by a hostile power.

So, yes, a grain of truth, but the guy is still a cock. And are you really allowed to use the word w@nker in American newspapers?
