For a change I am going to defend our Prime Minister Gordon Brown, he is on the receiving end of criticism for authorizing the attack on a Taliban hideout to release a British hostage who was being held captive there.
There are accusations that the British were heavy handed and used excessive force, how can it be deemed excessive force our troops were not up against boy scouts but murderous terrorists who have shown no mercy in the past, and have history of beheading hostages in front of the cameras.
In this action the hostage New York times cameraman Stephen Farrell was rescued but sadly a member of the rescue team, a British special forces soldier was killed alongside Mr Farrell's Afghan translator, on the plus side scores of militants were killed.
It seems that the liberals in the media out there, in their desperation to criticise anything the British do have now deemed hostage rescue as an infringement on terrorists rights, maybe we should have let them know we were coming and given them a sporting chance of either moving the hostages or killing them.
Suicide bombers on a daily basis are killing innocent civilians amongst them children, this is not deemed heavy handed, these are “Freedom Fighters”. It makes me sick, lets forget all the rules smash them to pieces,whenever, and wherever we find them, Gordon Brown should take the gloves of our boys and say do whatever it takes to to win this war and we can worry about the consequences later, after all we are damned if we do and damned if we don’t.
