But when it has a direct effect on our service personnel, who've been sent off at the behest of the Government to "Defend our liberty". there is no way these lies can be tolerated as it bears a direct effect on the troops morale, safety & well being. They're risking their lives daily & as such should be given everything they need, not half the story !
These Men & Women are doing what is asked of them whether they agree with it or not, they at least are being true & honest to their creed, unlike the cowards who sent them !

Do you know Dave? I'd agree with all of the above, except, we still have lads and lasses volunteering to join the forces.
Is this because they have some sort of patriotic feeling? No other job available? Like the idea of adventure & what the Hell? We only live once!
