    If my grandad was alive today he would slap the s*it out of you. Four years in the trenches in WW1 without a scratch, watched all his friends die, came home from that horror with a box of medals but it ruined him for the rest of his life.

    I hope one day soon you say that to someone who has served in the military or stood on a battlefield, i really do.

    God bless that poor man who died and sympathy to his family.

    By your reasoning any civilian target is justifiable, MTR, Train stations, bus stops, concert halls, schools?

    Even in the 18th century, there were rules of engagements.
    Chivalry is dead, it died long ago along with the traditional definition of battlefield. The battlefield is everywhere....

    Judging from his accent listening to the radio this morning, I think it might have been his father, grandfather or great grandfather that was "let in". Not the killer.

    Any British person can decide to go crazy. No matter what ethnic lineage.

    BTW, my father has served 2 years in WW2, he didn't like the killing, so he decided to run away from the troops.

    and there wasn't any God around either.

    so you want to say that if you are a authorized government killer then you are brave, hero etc...? when someone refuse to be a killer is a coward? i am not surprised you live on a boat.

    Yep, I did. Opened the link you provided and didn't see it. (The link took me to the same article I was referring to.)

    sadly there is a big difference between WWI and WWII and present military campaigns.

    for me the current fetish for 'our troops' is not in any way admirable, although that is an entirely separate argument.

    so of course, sympathy to the dead man. And sympathy also to the families of countless citizens that have died as a result of recent misguided military campaigns,

    If this is not a "facepalm" moment, i don't know what is.

    Troll alert! Back under the bridge with you.
