Re: UK Withdraws Troops From Iraq
I really don't know what to think. I dislike the idea of Britain posing as if they were drifting away from the United States. They are one and the same and, quite honestly, it is preferable to have them outright in front of you showing their hostility than next to you posing as the friend that they are not.
