As a Canadian soldier once said to me: "The safest place to be when fighting alongside the Americans is standing directly in front of them. They shoot everyone BUT the enemy."
BRING OUR LADS BACK HOME B-LIAR YOU TOSSER!!!!

Mr Air Force Man: You are the epitome of the loud, arrogant, ignorant yank who the world HATES. Your comments are what I'd expect from a typical jingoistic America a***shole. Want proof? Read the papers.

It is interesting to watch the British rush to judgment.
Ever notice that the British seem to blame everything on somebody else?

The soldier in question was killed in 2003... seems a little late to start crying about him now.
What I mean is you had 4 years to mourn the man, and it took you 4 years to realize he was dead? wtf?
In one friendly fire Incident a British tank commander shot a tank in his own unit, killing 1 and wounding 3!
where is the out rage there?
seems to me you are one of those far left fanatics that only lets out his outrage when there is media attention.
Every loss of life is tragic, but you know what accidents happen. Was it right for the investigation to take this long? no of course not, I am am very sorry for the loss of every soldier.
But I was upset when it happened and am now concentrating on what's happening now.
Either catch up with the times or keep your made up outrage over a past incident to your self.
and I only see on "Tosser" here. and guess what? he is the guy hiding behind the anonymity of the Internet, asking idiotic, biased and ignorant question, pretending he cares about something other than his own self gratification or his imagined moral superiority.

Many Americans feel bad about the friendly fire incident. Don't label us in a bad way. I know we get a lot of bad rep due to our president. The fact of the matter is many Americans like the UK. The friendly fire was during 2003 invasion. Considering how large an operation this was, it's actually was a low number of friendly fire casualties. If you look back to WW2 many man Americans and Brits died as a result of friendly fire. That's just part of war.

See, I honestly see our Army (I'm English btw) as a "Peace Keeper Army" .... I cant say anything for sure because im not a military man nor a politcian ... but this is how I see it.
If it wasnt for us I think the war would have been a lot lot worse for the Iraqis / Afgans etc because the Americans would walk all over the country taking what they want before claiming its not in a fit enough state to take care of itself and claming it as American soil.
Obviously im not talking short term there, but I hope you get my drift. I don't think that Blair is the puppet we take him for, I think he is very clued up on what is goin on and keepin an eye on Bush at all times.
Anyway - thats my two pennyworth .... *sits and awaits the back lash*

See the problem is , is your not seeing the root of the issue . The truth is is that the United States is fighting in Iraq for your queen . The royals are still secretly in charge, and the USA does thier bidding . Do you really think the American Revolution was actualy a revolution . So I want to know is why must the USA fight a war for the Queen . Think about it

ww2 was a diffrent matter there was no tech. i think u need to ask urself one question in the number of conflicts we have had since ww2 how many americans have died by the hands of the brits. none how many brits have died by the americans. over 100 so please lets pull our troops out or ask the yanks to hand over the trigger happy troops.

Blair is so far up Georges @rse that's why. Every time we go to war with them another British soldier dies and its another oh dam God bless them. That does not help them at all. All they do is kill us so I think we should bring our Army lads back there they are far away from the Americans.
Enough is enough now.

The problem with the yanks is that they accept ANYBODY with two legs and a pulse into their military. There are entire towns they keep depressed just so their youth join the military. What happens when you do this is that you get entire U.S. platoons with a combined IQ of about 95 made up of kids from the ghetto operating hi-tech weaponry.

Absolutely correct.
FACT.In the first Gulf War,more members of the British military were killed by the yanks than by the enemy.
and they think they are good.
one on one i wouldn't bet on a yank against a pygmy
