Just a guess.
Then perhaps they should have better considered the results of actually going to war, which the majority of Britons seemed to have supported at the time, rather than just jumping on the jingoistic band wagon? Buyers' remorse?

Just a guess

You realize that you are talking about England right?

I know you want to blame all the world's woes on Iraq and the cops but you are talking about a Kingdom that has been waging wars for centuries.

Read what nhgunnut wrote.

Wars may be costly but entitlement programs will break you.

There's a bunch of them that were involved in the protests that are members of the Rogan Board. I'm just relaying what they're talking about.

That's not fair.

You said you were guessing.

Fair shmair. Do I believe governments or interested parties plant troublemakers in the midst of protesters so those protesters can be shut down? Yes, I believe that happens.

Supposedly happened in Quebec City, back in '01.

They also claimed it happened at the recent Toronto G20 meetings, but that was a load of shit.
