Yet again you're collectively missing the key point of what was said. It matters not a whit to the strength of SAMXXV's argument whether "raghead" is offensive or not.
What DOES matter is the correctness and comparison of the UK forces with those of the Israeli's, and his assessment of just how capable - or otherwise - the UK forces are. From where I'm sitting he looks right on the money.
For what its worth I'm sure most of you have been around the military long enough to be aware that many of our servicemen DO think in terms of ragheads, towelheads, camel jockeys and such like, and no pious whining is going to change that.. You don't need to read more than a couple of military autobiographies to realise that....
