Reply #3: I was in England when the changeover happened [View All]

[Lydia Leftcoast]

The most striking image on TV was families of military personnel killed in Iraq standing on the corner near #10 Downing Street booing Blair as he was driven away for the last time.

I didn't hear any,"We've got to stay, because my child died for a noble cause" types of rationalizations that I often hear over here.

Maybe the lack of fervor is due to the fact that there are still people alive in the UK who remember what it's like to be on the receiving end of a military attack.
