Re: Middle East Crisis
There was a man from Blackburn on the local TV news last night. I don't know his ethnic background but he looked Arabic and had an Arabic name.
He'd recently returned from Lebanon, leaving his wife and children there still on holiday.
He said that if the British Government didn't evacuate his wife and children immediately, he would hold them personally responsible if anything happened to them.
Whilst it's understandable that he's worried about his family, unless the British Government paid for and forced him to take his family to a highly unstable part of the world for their holidays, he has to shoulder the responsibility for his actions, not anyone else.
