“Cowper-Coles said there was “no truth to the suggestion” that anyone asked the U.S. forces to leave the officer’s area, but added, “as in any war … when troops are fighting alongside each other, there are occasional tensions below the surface, and somebody under pressure spouts off.”

What, the NYT caught in a lie. I just cant fucking believe it, whats the world coming to?

During a visit to the United States late last month, Brown called Afghanistan “the front line against terrorism,” in contrast to President Bush’s common refrain that Iraq is the central front in the war on terror.

Me: this is kind of a strange statement to make considering a global war has more than one front. And at the moment I believe Iraq is the central front, which doesnt contrast with saying Afghanistan is also the front lines..World War 2 had front lines all over the place.

But anyways, thanks to the Brits for helping us out. Some say they could do a little more but I just thank them for helping at all. Much better than the other Isolationist countries we used to think were our allies

“On the military front, a report in The New York Times last week quoted an unidentified British military officer as saying he had asked U.S. special forces to leave his area of operations because they were causing civilian deaths.”

A report in the NY Slime? And he puts credence in that report? What a fucking dipshit. Go pour yourself another ale you fucking lyme twit.

Any British commander that PC needs to go back to Britain and find himself a good metrosexual job, cause he’s too much of a fag to be a member of the British military.

I wish they helped in Iraq more, but I’m thankful they helped out in Iraq at all. =)

“help a little more”? They completely screwed up Basrah, which is now a gang/warlord/militia playground for every variety of Shia under the sun, with Iran prominently represented. With help like that, who needs goldbrickers and wankers?

Last chance for the Brit forces not to end up slinking home in shame like the Spanish. Which many of them already feel, BTW.
