bah.. like you can tell from the title uk/us relations - besides if you bothered to read it's about the effect of a Generals words on the morale of his soldiers, which has fuck all to do with US / UK relations

Are you a general?  Do you believe that you can say that because you think you know what being a general is about?  Or maybe because his views vary from traditional military thinking? 

So generals shouldn't be generals, if they happen to hold different political/tactical views of the situation?  When was the last time you were a general in southern Iraq, ATG?

Oh yes, because there's no crossover between military and politics in the US.........................
