World War Two just as pointless and self-defeating as Iraq
20 04 08 - 06:16 The people who sold us Iraq did so as if they were today's Churchills. They were wrong.In that case, how can we be sure that Churchill's war was a good war?
What if the Men of Glory didn't need to die or risk their lives? What if the whole thing was a miscalculated waste of life and wealth that destroyed Britain as a major power and turned her into a bankrupt pensioner of the USA?
The other is one I hear from an ever-growing number of war veterans contemplating modern Britain's landscape of loutishness and disorder and recalling the sacrifices they made for it: "Why did we bother?"

My grandfather certainly is one who thinks Britain today is not what he fought for and the Germans would have made a better job of it!
