Although I'm using stronger language and exaggerating a little on here, for the most part I am not being sarcastic.

The way the British have handled Basra has been first rate, and i am not just saying that because i am british. They immeadiately set about winning over the people and working together with them. Within a few days of being there they even got a game of football going with the local team. |
I fully agree and I read similar stories about American liberations, But that was during the initial war. During this second part of the war things are different. We are now fighting the real enemy, not saddam, but the real terrorists.

The US on the other hand try to rule by shooting whatever they can, and it doesn't seem to be working. |
Sorry, but if my country is fighting a war I'm not going to disable my army and require that they can't fire until they've already been shot. This is a real war, not a game played by paintballers. These are my friends and family getting shot at over there.
Also, on the contrary it looks like it has been working. After the US has killed about 700 terrorist they come forward and are trying to negotiate a cease-fire. I really doubt that they would have done that if we didn't keep the pressure on them.

You don't believe that my freedom and way of life are at stake here? How about if terrorists flew 757's into your bigben, would you still feel that way?
