"Ah, the famous US talent for geography shines through again...
...If I as an Australian comment on British/US relations over the Falklands, the fact that Australia doesn’t have a battle group in Afghanistan (incidentally, I think we should) is irrelevant to whether or not I should comment."
Geography? I was referring to Australia sending a battlegroup to the FALKLANDS. You think the FALKLANDS so important then convince your government to defend it.
This remains a FALKLANDS thread...
"...Everybody else in the 9/11 attacks were just collateral damage..."
Painfully tacky. Tell that to their families.
"...The British only made themselves targets when they went to war for America..."
Well, if it was only for the ol' U.S.A. and nothing to do with them then the British should have stayed home. I presume most weren't as short-sighted about Al Qaeda as you.
You'll have to ask the Brits. I won't speak for their reason. Nor should you.
