Our values and our economy and our language are Anglo-Saxon. Stop this wishy-washy anti-war claptrap and support the necessary war against the enemies of Western civilization.
"Our values and our economy and our language are Anglo-Saxon."
But our national anthem says "out yonder waits THE SAXON FOE".
Methinks you are not Irish at all!
It is a bit irrelevant where our roots are or who our national anthem describes as our enemy.
We each make individual decisions whether we support a war against a people who have done us no wrong (in fact they were big customers of our beef industry for many years) or if we go for the expedient angle and say, yeah, whatever, as long as the Yankee dollar keeps rolling in, we don't give a fuck what happens to those dirty, smelly, Iraqi's.
We all make a choice, even if we make no choice at all.
