    Is that your position? ISAF are there to help increase heroin production?
    Again with the twisted propaganda - are you saying the British/US coalition and their puppets in the Afghanistan government are the only way that peace can be allowed in that region?

    I wonder did his relatives fight the Talebs during the 19th century wars in Afghanistan, As they said in that historical classic Braveheart.

    "send in the Irish"

    Groan, what a waste of a life.

    Can you?

    RIP.

    Can I ask that psycho nationalists repect the dead this time and not say that he deserved it for being in the British Army? Thank you.
