I have just been watching the most apalling images of our "allies" whooping and screaming like deranged sports fans when a building was taken out in Um Qasr.

But if you are ferocious in battle remember to be magnanimous in victory...... "It is a big step to take another human life. It is not to be done lightly.
Perhaps we are operating by a different set of values?
