still a devious weightlifting bastard Member 43, 14374 posts | GB - massive cuts in spending including defence as it's announced that Argentina has doubled their military budget. Wonder if they'll be buying any guns and stuff off the UK? Pffft. | ||

My opinions have run their course Member 694, 3112 posts | Post Edited: 26.10.2010 @ 10:48 AM by Pompy All it will take is another military junta in power and it will happen.The people of Argentina believe the Falklands belong to them, they support invasion. The military might have increased spending but they are still relatively unskilled. Given how stretched the Royal Marines are in Afghan and the state of the Navy (trust me I can see half the surface fleet out of my window as I type!), we could be in the s**t. By the start of the year there will be no working UK capability to deliver aircraft strike anywhere, at all. HMS Illustrious is in refit and doesn't even come out until February (never mind working up), HMS Ark Royal is being mothballed immediately. We could maybe drop a few thousand Royals on the Falklands but given how important the air/sea battle was last time, we might be f**ked. | ||

I don't know that there is much evidence of HM Forces raping afghan/iraqi civilians. I'd agree it might be likely to have happened at some point I don't think it's viewed as a routine occurence by British soldiers/marines. Soldiers don't believe they are fighting for a cause, they just fight for each other there is a massive difference (and obviously I'm generalising). But I don't believe a soldier 4 week into a patrol in Afghan is thinking about British foreign policy, more about keeping himself and his comrades alive. 9/11 wasn't a load of bo***cks.... but the war on Afghanistan was rushed afterwards and we are seeing the results or lack of now. And to GATES there are 4 or 5 naval air squadrons in afghanistan now and yes I think the royal marines are winding down now. | ||
