Right and what exactly does a principle sending some kids home for an afternoon as they were pouring cold water on some fellow classmates national celebrations have to do with those who died in Iraq and Afghanistan?

But I am grateful to the US for invading Iraq and other countries in the Middle East and signing up my little Island country to assist them. I feel safer now knowing that the Arabs hate us Brits as much as you yanks and that after we joined up with you Americans in your brave and gallant efforts they have so far only bombed us once in London.

Although to be fair your guys have killed more of us in friendly fire than the terrorists did on that day.
