Love to see a hostile government in Dublin with a few nukes to spare and an agenda. A record of rhetoric that included wiping the UK off the map and a soon to be capability to do so and your lot would be a helluva lot more receptive. Thankfully your level of hypocracy and ignorance is based on the reletive peace the majority of your citizens have grown up to enjoy.
Hmmmm.....and also remember there are plenty of British ex-servicemen, including my late Father, and two Uncles, that spent a great deal of time being shot at and blown up by the Irgun/Stern Gang..........

Thanks for the insults.

I'm no fan of OBL.............unlike you Americans who built him right up when he was your big pal shooting your Stingers and other weapons off at the Russkiesfor you !

What goes round comes round.....as you lot will never learn.

What IS it with you guys and Israel anyway? Anyone would think they've got something on you.

"they have never said that they are going to attack Isreal"

If a leader of a country said of your country that it needed to be wiped off the map, what would you say of its intentions, hostile perhaps? If you choose to find wiggle room between saying your country needed to be wiped off the map and saying it would attack, I at least hope you see how one might interpert it as a threat of violence.

Gee,

How many Irgun attacks against yer Gramps and Dad were perpetrated in Blighty?

I can understand yer concern over your family getting the boot out of Palestine and all....but gee whiz....its been years since that happened.

Of course with all the agro "Spams" get here....the Irgun boys have another century and a half to go to get to our current status now.

You guys sure take offense to getting shown the door.

I suppose 60 or so years is only a long time if your country has only been around for a couple of hundred itself. Get some time in...

You however haven't. The UK for the majority of its citizens has only known peace on its shores.

Apart from the Blitz and the constant threat of IRA attacks for many decades.

As opposed to the US....

And of course, there's no "the British are coming" hangover in the US either. What nationality are Hollywood bogeymen traditionally? But it's been years since that happened...

Art imitates life...

Having criticised me as a fan of OBL rather unfairly IMHO, why won't you respond to my post reminding you who built him up?
