We certainly should debate this sort of thing. We certainly should campaign about this. You are citizens as well - if there is one thing we can be certain of it is that the enemy will already know! I am (as already posted) a civilian, but I am horrified by the turn defence policy has taken. It's not just the policy, but the contradiction to the govt.'s announced policy. This shows a dangerous irrationality. I am convinced that only activism will affect any changes - if you don't like the government, you have to make yourself loud and clear. Therefore, as I can be as nasty to the Govt as I want, whereas members of HM Forces are constrained by discipline, I will be as nasty and awkward as I can.
