Reply #14: It's amazing to me that the brits are getting more credit.

They're not over there slaughtering people, they're taking great care of their own troops, they've kept Basra very peaceful.

What they have doen seems to be the ideal. And despite what people say, it's not like Bush is getting mileage out of the Brits being there. In fact, they could be used as huge indictment of Bush. Why do we suck and the British make it look easy? If the British were the only people there, maybe they'd have had REAL democratic elections by now and everyone would be gone. Maybe if we left the whole thing to Europe, there wouldn't have had to been an invasion.

See how easy that is?
