as an ex british soldier, i don't take pleasure from the fact i forecast that the war in iraq would lead to western coaltion winnng the ground with major problems before and after- I said at the time that the iraquis would conduct a guerilla warfare campaign similar to vietnam, that is exactly what is happening.
Now the truth is being revealed. my son is still in the army and this is ONE OF THE FIRST newspaper reporst that reveals the truth.

I feel sorry for USA soldiers who are now losing their lives at the rate of 2 per day in Iraq, more than was killed in the war Proper.


P.S
I served as a member of the british army years ago -Royal Signals seconded to the Royal Miltary Police and I would be very grateful if those people on bon jovi, who were from countries not involved in the first and second world wars and would normally ignore this occasion, took at least a moments silence on armistice day (nov 11) to remember that the ultimate sacifrice was paid , by not only british, french and belgium troops and also german and usa (last year of the 5 year war)=but also russian and turkish ottoman etc troops. it was the last world war fought with honour-(except for when the germans started using poison gas but i accept that they only used it first before we did......... jim bon jOVI AND mONGOOSE have links to thebritish poppy memorial sites, please remember those who fought for freedom.
