Purely fascist, was the actual term.

You will find it was gunit who used the term purely fascist...

Please may I have an apology from The General who has yet again accused me of deleting comments when I didn't done it.

Or do I have to take the weight of every deleted comment on my shoulders?

I have to say that I don't really care.

[The General]

I find gunits attitude odd... Even my post Re the British army and it's role in saving people from the tyranny of hitler  didn't seem to deserve any credit from her

I think it's more to do with the general tone of animosity creating a defence response.
So we have this curious dynamic whereby a number of supporters seem bent on besmirching the whole Portuguese nation and it's 20th century history, simply to bolster this regressive, barbaric, despotic state narrative, which apparently, ultimately led to the disappearance of Madeleine. I mean, of course, now you see it in text, it's obvious.

I was referring to the question posed by the original comment.

Such a pity that The PJ and some of The Judges haven't caught up either.

If you remember correctly, this alleged 'debate' started because the GNR separated two drunken Brit groups in Albufeira.

Much like I see the Brit cops doing on The Force : Essex.

And more drunken Brits on The Force : North East.

So what is the common denominator?  Fascist police? Or drunken Brits?

What do you want from me? Utter and complete worship of anything 'British' and utter and complete condemnation of anything Portuguese? Sorry, that's not going to happen. The British Army's role is and always has been to do as ordered. Sometimes the results are good, sometimes not.

Lusophobia is the word you're looking for.

Lack of drink seems to be a problem here,must have been johnny foreigner our lads wouldn't engage.

One onlooker told MailOnline about a number of other violent incidents that led to at least a dozen people being thrown out of the popular Christmas attraction.

They said: 'The first big fight happened while people were queuing to get into the main beer hall in the Bavarian Village. 'It had shut for an hour and was re-opening and a huge queue had formed outside. Security were saying it would take two hours to get in and people started getting agitated and pushing to get to the top.

'Then two men started fighting and throwing punches and everyone was getting pushed back but there was nowhere to go. Security had to move back a barrier to stop people getting trampled, it was quite scary and it's really lucky nobody was hurt.

What is disrespectful about the truth? The Army's job is to go where it's told and fight who it's told when it's told. The only choice it's members have is to obey or disobey their orders. They may be the Queen's soldiers, but it's the politicans who decide where they go and what they do.

I find that extremely disrespectful... Soldiers fight and die for ours and others freedom... They deserve some appreciation.

Give us an example of something in which you think the British excel or lead the world.

Invading Iraq & toppling Saddam worked out well didn't it.
Great move by our glorious armed forces.
Remind us, have they found the WMD's yet?

Soldiers fight and die because they are trained to do so on command. They're trained to obey orders without question. Some have a higher purpose in mind, others don't.
