I saw a cyclist riding up a cycle path at the side of the road, instead of swerving around looking for his next gear, full of high visibility shit, holding up traffic, despite it. Which was really weird! :shock: What's weird is... I've read this three times and it makes no sense. :shock: the joys o...

Patriotism;Nationalism;Jingoism: There are so many grey areas that, at least linguistically, they can seem to overlap - at least in the English language they can. I cannot speak for other languages as I am not multilingual (unless talking fair dinkum, true blue Strine counts). Protection of one's o...

As a journalist you should find the shift key, J. Alfred. :wink: Thanks for giving your frank views, SOTWA. I would agree there are many motivations and there is likely a difference in motivations between the professional career soldier and those who volunteered in the two world wars. As noted I am...

You can call me Monty, Prufrock, whether or not we agree on issues. I did agree with you that a country was more than simply land and was a way of life within a defined territory. No one on TW would have much sympathy with a BNP Bolton supporter, indeed people have been banned for uttering racist v...

You are trying to suggest that Black voters vote for him because he is black. Don't try and deny that. :conf: Well they do! Just as some white voters will vote for the white candidate. We may think it is reprehensible that in the year 2008 that racism in civilised society still exits - but unfortun...

Re: Political Ramblings of an Idiot
I still feel things are somewhat misinterpreted. Yes, they would say they fought for their country but their country represents far more than a piece of land. It is culture, ideals, family, friends - a whole way of life which they would defend as well as just territory. My father, who was exempted ...

Re: Political Ramblings of an Idiot
regarding what i thought they fought for, whilst obviously some men fought for Queen and Country, by fighting for queen and country they were fighting for the ideals they represent, which i would argue as freedom and equality. they werent strictly speaking fighting to protect Britain as a landmass ...
