Let the Yanks walk over mines and their fucking vehicles set off the IEDs Don't be so fucking ridiculous. We can't just abandon the Afghanistan effort, just like that. We have got a disproportionate number of troops out there though. The US/other NATO countries need to start pulling their weight. -- Posted by Seanee at 4:04 am on Nov. 13, 2008 Quote: from Rollo Tomasi at 12:04 pm on Nov. 13, 2008 at least they served the country they loved Hear hear. -- Posted by Rollo Tomasi at 4:04 am on Nov. 13, 2008 i mean, it would be better if they served the country they loved and also didn't die, but you know what i mean -- Posted by ElephantStone at 4:05 am on Nov. 13, 2008 Quote: from Reece Dodsworth at 12:03 pm on Nov. 13, 2008 OK this might seem mean, but its not if you think about it. 128 people dead since that we been over there, but how many people die on the roads a year. about 4 times the amount of the people that been killed at war..   anyways its still sad about that =[ what has that got to do with this.

I agree, but it's not humvees thata re the problem, American vehicles are fine now, with the panther etc. It's the British snatch that's a problem, hence SAS officers resigning. -- Posted by immoraldan at 4:22 am on Nov. 13, 2008 Sucks, sucks to report those kind things too I'm sure.
