seriessix   10 #61 Posted April 8, 2007 I disagree. It is the amercians fault that everyone hates them because they voted bush in again just as it also our fault thatwe arent liked much as we had the chance to show the world where we stand. Unfortunatly we did and voted the other warmonger in too.  So people in glass houses..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
cgksheff   44 #62 Posted April 8, 2007 Just to go back to the original posts.  The first clip would appear to be of US military, but there is considerable doubt about the second clip. It may well have been from private security agents that were probably South African. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
upinwath   10 #63 Posted April 8, 2007 I agree with you about the title change and what it should read, but I disagree with you thinking poppins is as respectful as other U.S forummers. I think in the past she has been guilty of posting some offensive stuff on SF towards muslims in Britain.  I think it stinks when some forummers think everyone should think as they do.  I've had a look for these posts and can't find them. The nearest I can come up with is this and it's not really anti muslim but does the same thing about these muslim clerics that I'm being accused of here.  Anybody who draws attention to themselves the way these guys did and thinks nothing will come of it is, well, I don't know what to say except that I don't think this is going to go they way they think it will.  About the same as the americans I've met in the UK and in other countries don't you agree ?  salaam.  That's looked after sierra but poppins says. http://www.sheffieldforum.co.uk/showpost.php?p=1910127&postcount=150  Islamaphobia on a stick. I will be a muslim in a few weeks and that's seriously offensive to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Jabberwocky   46 #64 Posted April 8, 2007 I wonder where these soldiers come from...?  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xnyjH5wusqs  Its a disgrace.

ohhshurrup   10 #65 Posted April 8, 2007 The original post showed young vandals at work. There are vandals among testosterone-charged youths in any country. This is why it's important that when the British go abroad they don't behave like mindless yobs. When they do they let down their country as these soldiers did.  Right now, the world views the British military as a bunch of spineless hairdressers, because a few couldn't stand up to being kept in a room on their own for a few days without totally capitulating to their captors. But I wouldn't say all British are cowards just as the video being used here shouldn't be used to condemn all Americans. There are bad apples in every barrel.

upinwath   10 #67 Posted April 8, 2007 I can't blame Rich and the others for hateing Yanks though, they would be put to work the minute he stepped on dry land over here, that would be enough the scare any lot on the dole:hihi:   Easy to see why. http://www.sheffieldforum.co.uk/showpost.php?p=1910127&postcount=150  I find comments like yours a good reason to dislike americans who make them.

Well Davy Crockett and Co. were 'aving problems for 12 days when "our" poppins rode into the Fort on her pinto pony.  She got the beaver heads sorted, organised, victualled and pinched the only working rifle left between them.  On the final day of the struggle (the 13th day of battle), she cooked the blokes a good breakfast, settled them into the hairdressing salon and went to the highest part of the Alamo walls....and blew the Mexicans back to the Border with her vicious tongue and the occasional bullet from the Winchester rifle.  They don't make wimmen like that these days!  The weasel film makers wrote her part out of the script, poor lass.....and John Wayne never looked back.  Shame on them.
