Re: How to lose allies ...
ok , had time to reflect on things , no way do I think we (the USofA) are the best thing since sliced bread, lots of things need fixing , but a lot fewer than many places in the world .

present numbers indicate the US has about 68,000 compared with the UKs 9000. No need for me to comment about the other Nato countries miserable contributions Quote:

my friend is a flagstone layer and when at work one day an american tourist stopped to talk to him and said that in america they had a machine that could lay flagstones acurate to 1 millionth of a tenth acuracy to which my mate replied " thats no good to me i need to be spot on " :)
in america bigger is better and it even goes to the extent of potatos been 4 x larger than UK grown pototoes but we dont need to grow them as big for our mouths :D |

But seriously, the problem I see is post #4. Here, we are asked to accept not only the courage of the American soldier ... and American service personel are as brave, and as patriotic, and as dedicated as any ... but also, the altruism of American foreign policy. America doesn't have any foreign policy other than self-interest. |

The British Army, full time numbers as of 2009 stand at 106,000 approx this also includes LTR (Long term reserves),so we're a bit pushed for numbers considering all our other commitments.

Re: How to lose allies ...
Ooh and look another red DOT :rolleyes: I do seem to be ruffling somebodies feathers :) all entitled to our opinions, but at least have the backbone to say who you are when you slag me down so I'll know to avoid you should we meet, because if you don't like my comments you'll probably not like me.
Also your spineless ways made me wrongly accuse as it happens a very pleasant bloke, so if you're a fella? grow some eh! Lets see how far down this sinks me :D:D |

And I just heard on the news that we are commiting more resources to Haiti. (Canada, particularly Quebec, has a large number of Canadians of Haitian origin. Our Govenor General came from Haiti as an immigrant.) Two ships, HMCS Halifax and HMCS Ville de Quebec, carrying troops and supplies will soon arrive. DART (Disaster Assistance Respone Team) teams from Kingston have been flown out of Trenton with mobile hospitals and water purification plants. It might not seem like much, compared to what the US is doing; but in terms of our available resources, stretched to the limit in Afghanistan, it is all we can do. I know it's a wander mentioning Haiti; but that star crossed country needs as much help as those of us more fortunate can give. |
