Likely Hrolf is not even aware that about 400,000 muslims served in our armed forces in WW1 and more than half a million enlisted in WW2. Edited by legaleagle (06 Jun 2017 7.47pm)

Originally posted by Cucking Funt Pivotal and defining moment in our history. Up there with 1066, Agincourt, Trafalgar and Waterloo. To be fair; also in other countries' history, particularly the USA. I visited numerous D-Day sites a couple of years ago and they are all poignant and moving, but the US cemetery at Omaha has to be seen to be believed in terms of impact. There's a small chapel there, and as I recall it, the walls and ceiling are painted with scenes of fallen soldiers being coaxed up to heaven by merciful angels. I'm not religious but I found it so moving that I weep every time I think about it. Such as now. I almost wish it were true for those soldiers' sakes.

Edited by legaleagle (06 Jun 2017 7.47pm) So bloody what? What would you expect in a bleeding world war? Hey guess what, rapists and murderers enlisted as well. I'm not comparing them but It illustrates how ridiculous the point is. Someone fighting on the same side as you means nothing more than you share the same enemy or self interest. Plenty fought against us in the first world war. Most people fighting IS are still Muslims. I would still make a distinction between what type of Muslim they were before deciding whether them living here was a good idea or not.
