What If

What if this country was under attack - who could we count on?

You may say "what a question", but just look at the abuse that was thrown at the troops as they marched through Luton!

The people who come to this country receive all the benefits, but having not contributed, yes I know there are a lot who have and actually mix in the community's in which they live.

The insults hurled during this march, makes me angry to the point of saying, if you are saying these thing why are you here, not back working with your own people.

What proof is there in the accusations where it was reported that our troops have killed maimed and raped thousands of innocent people.

If these people feel they have been insulted they should return to Iraq and Afghanistan and build their Utopia.

Why does this government not pull all our troops back, and all these people who support the Taliban leave this country?

As for calling the troops cowards, I wonder how they would defuse bombs, and save local children lives. It's all very well making these devices but to find and make safe is another thing.

Why with my hard earned money support such venomous people, when we have troops returning home who are badly injured having lost limbs and having to go through the awful affects of combat stress disorder, not being able to remove the noise and sights of seeing their comrades blown to bits.

I have said in previous blogs I worry about the state of this country, and the killing that is taking place on our streets.

What will happen when the unemployment rises, just take a look at history
