So now, a sniper in the Parachute regiment ventures forward from his platoon's position in order to get a clearer shot at his targets, but because the maps he's been given don't highlight the fact that the area he's entering is a mine field, he gets his leg blown off when he steps on one of them. His platoon don't realise it's a minefield either cause they have the same maps and set off to rescue him and a couple of them get blown up too.
Now they realise they're all marooned in a minefield they radio for a helicopter to winch them the fuck out of there, but none of the UK forces helicopters are equipped with such fancy things as winches so they send a fuck off huge Chinnock instead which they intended to land in the minefield and recover their soldiers. A plan with no flaws. Except for how they'd all have died had it been able to land.
As it happens, the downwash from the rotors was powerful enough to set off more mines and kill one of the Para's - Cpl Mark Wright. Eventually three hours later a US Blackhawk helicopter with a winch rescues the rest of the party who by this point have no more than 5 or 6 limbs between them.
Now whoever laid those mines is ultimately responsible for the carnage and for the death of that soldier, but our own MoD and Gordon Brown's habitually incompetent and negligent Government can surely be awarded an assist each.
Meanwhile, this same Government who assisted in the death of Mark Wright and countless other soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan by not issuing them with proper equipment, are fixing to press criminal charges against the parents of a guy who they helped travel to an assisted suicide clinic in Switzerland.
After being paralysed from the chest down in a rugby accident he decided he didn't want to live his life imprisoned in his own body and made his decision to end his life such as it was. As this isn't legal here our Government think it right and proper that they charge the guys parents who have essentially lost their son twice now and wanted to see an end to his suffering. Although what the fuck it's got to do with the Government they are yet to explain.
So while Daniel James' parents will be held accountable for an incredible act of mercy, Gordon Brown remains completely unaccountable for any of his collection of fuck ups from this past ten years which have cost thousands of lives in two wars and will soon see people starving to death in the affluent home counties cause no one has an money - and Tony Blair also remains immune from prosecution and is busy hiding in America and collecting about £250,000 a year from Yale University for teaching courses on faith and globalisation.
This sort of hypocrisy bothers me. It keeps me awake at night. It's no wonder that poor bloke decided his daily fight to remain motivated enough to stay alive wasn't worth it when you have people running the planet who are pathological liars, not responsible for the consequences of their actions and completely remorseless anyway.
The fight in Afghanistan is even more futile because there never was a reward at the end of it for those doing the fighting, which makes Gordon Brown and the MoD even more culpable and their decisions wholly indefensible. Unfortunately they know they'll never have to defend them or any other decisions they make and since we're on the brink of a depression there's any number of opportunities for them to saddle us all with even more immeasurable hardship and suffering while they exist in their own little world feasting on dolphin cutlets and baby seal hearts stuffed with dove pate and blame everything on the Americans.
