A bit of nuance and understanding helps here, I find - not all Sunnis are extremists and not all Shia are Khomeneist fundies, either.



Slightly wrong. You have the right to defend yourself and your property using reasonable force, which is defined very broadly (for instance, it's not the actual threat that matters legally, but your instantaneous perception of the threat, even if that turns out to be wrong). Don't believe the tabloid rubbish, get the facts. What you aren't allowed to do, and correct me if this is what you're advocating, is premeditated assault or murder. A threat of prosecution in those cases would be in order, I suggest.



No, no no. You have a perfect right to talk uninformed rot, and swear on a forum where the community agrees that this isn't acceptable language, but don't complain if you get pulled up for it. Or don't you believe in accepting the consequences of your actions?

Saddam? Shows how much the Americans and British have lost the Iraq War, to me. I've seen the future and it puts the mental into fundamentalist. Anyone talking about 'stabilising the democratically elected government' and 'backing the Iraqi forces in their struggle against the insurgency' during the next 12 months should have 'liar' shouted at them.

Totally wrong mate! What i` am saying is what i would do basically if you or anyone else came into my house to rob it or cause harm to me or my family, or, caused harm or grief to a member of my family. No premeditation mentioned there is there? You take your chance and you suffer the consequences. Isn`t it the same thing that Law in this country is based upon?
As for the swearing, i have apologised for that so don`t try and get me on one , ok?
I also have a right to talk" uninformed Rot" the same as you have mate.
