Don't argue over me folks, I've done a lot of job's over the years in a lot of locations I maybe hadn't bargained on. There's a lot more drop into these locations than just army regiments and as pointed out whe you add in Nato components like the Allied Rapid Reaction Corp,you find lots of people from lots of locations and jobs you might not expect

For the opposite reason that *you* chuck your hat in ring. Move along the bus please.

I'm sure you thought that made sense when you typed it....

Don't worry ninefingers, we're not arguing over you. Some people just like to snipe for the sake of it. :o)

[Togo]

9fin some of us would be more than happy to hear your views. I note that you are fairly new to AB. Belated welcome. Another time perhaps.

[retrocop]

Yes. Hans remarked on that earlier on CB. Wasn't directed at me either!!!

@islay

i dont come on here to waste hour after hour debating, especially with you bleeding heart liberals and your "rose tinted bubble world" outlook on things...

you made your position pretty clear...Brit soldier gets rid of enemy filth who we can be pretty sure based on evidence has no interest in the Geneva convention or any other for that matter but in good old leftie liberal bleeding heart tradition you want to tie his and the other soldiers hands behind their backs and are no doubt extremely happy action was taken against the soldier...

lets hope you never need our soldiers to help you out directly...still its ok youre in your nice comfy chair, so you can criticize the soldier all you like, cant you....

When you get so bent out of shape by being called names for your 'out-of-step' views, baz, why do you think it is acceptable to insult other contributors who are 'out-of-step' with you?

Freudian? Parapraxis?

"rose tinted bubble world"

I did like that though. Stop being so self conscious baz, it fosters self entitlement and low self esteem.

[Islay]

Baz oh please stop my sides are splitting from laughing so much!!

You have no idea of my background or what I base my opinions on, but go ahead and carry on making an idiot of yourself.

///Freudian? Parapraxis? ///

Tautological.....?

[Togo]

Maybe periphrasic brevity.

[jackthehat]

PeriphrasTic ....? LoL

//Maybe periphrasic //

OOO matron. Miriam Webster in disguise.

// It would be very hard for someone who has no military background to have a true opinion. //

oh no it isnt - soldiers dont have a carte blanche to kill anyone anywhere

once we have agreed that they have to obey (some) law along with the rest of us we can then discuss what they have to obey

like shooting unarmed POWs - nope - google Wormhout and Malmedy
rape on the battlefield ?
shooting the wounded of the other side

anyway there are various things they cant do

and I fear that Sgt Blackman's video - the one where someone ends up dead - does show something that should have been investigated

[ disarmed wounded combattant who was dragged out of the all-seeing eye of the battlefield CCTV ( oops wait a minute was there one ? ) before he ended up dead ]

[Peter Pedant]

well parapraxis wikis as Freudian Slip

not so much periphrastic brevity as reduplication
oo-er Mrs !

"but go ahead and carry on making an idiot of yourself. "

well youve excelled in that field with your show and degree of naivety..in fact youve elevated it to an art form...
