Hail Britannia!

During the American Revolutionary War, the British hired Hessian soldiers as fodder for the American troops. Today, returning the favor, the Americans are using British troops in the same capacity in Iraq. While the most of the world shamelessly refused to invade and occupy a country for no reason, the British were more than willing to sacrifice their youth.

So, it came as no surprise when Americans recently ordered the British on a fun suicide mission, Mr Blair obediently accepted the challenge. It also came as no surprise when six British soldiers were killed and eight injured during the mission. It's okay, though, as none of the soldiers were named Blair. In fact, they weren't even Britons, but only Scots. And Scotsmen can always be counted to vote Labour.

G-d bless the Union Jack.
