Lest we Forget

And you would care if you weren't 'free' to be able to call me a **** in an internet forum without being stamped on.
<b>With most modern wars there can be a variety of agendas</b> some of these are far removed from the need to promote or maintain 'freedom' - but the paramount point must be that freedom.

Oppressed by who btw?
The Romans, the Vikings, the Normans. Long time ago but the oppression was all the more brutal as a result.

And my point was that just because we've oppressed in the past doesn't mean we can't argue against it now. If some new terrorist organisation started bombing Belfast, would you be barred from criticising it because you're an IRA sympathist? Of course not.

There's bombs in Belfast nearly every other day.

Britain is oppressing now in the ME along with the good ole USA.
