vicious way to treat out hero families
brian | 15.04.2003 23:14
'Every British serviceman who died in the conflict in Iraq is a hero......'did i read that right???? i would call them invaders and murderers, whose should be properly be chatrged wiht war crimes. However, the dumb soldiers dont know their leaders will relegate them to oblivion.
Every British serviceman who died in the conflict in Iraq is a hero.
Just as important are their families - every single mother, father, wife, and child. Their lives will be blighted forever by the loss of their loved ones.
So the treatment meted out to widow Lianne Seymour, whose commando husband Ian was killed in a helicopter crash as the war started, is disgusting.
Callous officials at Ministry of Defence are demanding the return of an "overpaid" ?00 of her dead husband's wages.
She's also been told she has just months to get out of the married quarters where she and Ian's toddler son live.
What world do these insensitive bureaucrats live in?
Do they have no sympathy, no compassion, for a young mum whose husband made the supreme sacrifice for his country?
It beggars belief that this demand for cash was made just days after Ian Seymour was buried with full military honours.
It makes a total mockery of his funeral. It's also an insult to every single member of his grieving family.
If Defence Secretary Geoff Hoon does not realise this and deal with the blundering incompetents responsible for this appalling decision, he deserves to be kicked out of his job.
It's no good his officials hiding behind rules and regulations.
Lianne Seymour - and every other wife tragically widowed by the Iraqi war - should be treated with consideration, sympathy, and full honour.
Not hounded for money.

ONLY CHANCE
There is hope after all.
America has agreed to airlift crippled Iraqi boy Ali Abbas out of Baghdad.
The daily agony of this youngster sums up the suffering of all the war's civilian victims. He touched the hearts of Mirror readers and millions around the world.
Yesterday Tony Blair responded to Ali's plight, ordering our forces to do everything they could to assist.
We rejoice that Ali is being helped at last.
But the hundreds of others like him must also become a priority for our government.
The rescue mission is fraught with danger. Ali is terribly burned and might yet die. But what chance has he staying in lawless, crumbling Baghdad?
The airlift is his only hope.

Note that this figure(100,000!!) is the widely quoted figure for the chasing of Saddam's conscript army from kuwait and southern Iraq.
The sources are the most reliable one can get and not many dispute the figures anymore. The only trick was that this astonishing figure was released to the western braindead idiots so slowly that they remian oblivious to the fact that they continue to be murderers for the thier greedy way of life.
Now I wonder whether all these Iraqi conscripts were cloned from pigs, and did not have families and children!!!
I wonder how many were killed off like flies this time?
After the most brutal sanction regime in recent times they (USA and UK this time) nurtued the kill (Inocent human in the form of Iraqi conscripts) for twelve years.
Honeslty! how on earth is that these baric bloodthirsty braindead idiots remain so braindead I do not know...
