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.

British soldiers aren't conscripts. They are proactively making a choice when they join up.

So the hundreds of thousands who fought a died to save Europe from nazi tyranny deserve no respect or thanks... Disgraceful

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

I don't understand why you think excelling or leading the world are important. I love my country unconditionally just as I love my children unconditionally.

They are these days, but the reasons for joining up are many.

Let me be absolutely clear. I haven't said any of that, you have. It's disgraceful in my opinion that you are trying to suggest that those are my thoughts.

I think the world would be a better place had the Nazis won.

Perhaps you could point to where I used the word “important”.  Perhaps you could answer my question now?

Jew [ censored word ] are you?  That censored word is a word used to describe someone who hates.

What a waste of space you are.

I think you have just invoked Godwin's law and totally destroyed yourself in the process.

Only a sceptic would write something as idiotic and offensive as that IMO.

In my opinion your question was pointless.

I think our exchange has made my point very well actually.  You have nothing positive to say about the country you profess to love.

I don't get the connection I'm afraid. Love involves acceptance not admiration in my opinion.

How utterly odd imo, that love does not also include admiration, nor inspire positivity in you.  How strange to love something or someone but not be able to say what qualities in it or them that you admire above those things and people you do not love.
