SasGuru was right all along. Apologies

[sasguru]

I accept your retraction, now bugger off and annoy somebody else

I think you're confusing a retraction with an accusation of making things up.
Lady argument tactics
Think I'll hang around. After all the thread has my name in it.

I suspect the absence of a Saddam like figure allowing your entire family to be fed live through a mincing machine for daring to contemplate a change of administration at the next General Election might weigh heavy in the minds of many Iraqis. But can that really be classed as progress when one considers the fact that it is now perhaps more advisable to drink bottled water? All depends on your priorities I suppose.

Plus I wonder what sort of ally he would have made against the Taliban, if we had gotten friendly with him again

Sigh, I remember this argument the first time round.

Here's the proof sas.

thanks for pointing out it wasn't me who talked about retreating and enfilading.
I still think Iraq was a waste of time though.

The British will be forced to retreat from Iraq, they will suffer not a few casualties during the retreat , they will be enfiladed and they will have to launch an armoured diversion - SasGuru (or one of his sockies)

He confused it with The Battle of Arnhem.

One would have thought that after extremely expensive paradrops of Luftwaffe in 1941 (Crete) such mass scale operations involving paratroopers won't be done - Axis certainly avoided it.

Think it was Diver who 'predicted' this.

I remember him using the term 'enfiladed'.

I suggest finding someone who has had an account for ages, but never comes here now. That person is the most intelligent of the lot.

Didn't SasGuru 'come out' and claim that diver was his sockie ?
