All these demonstrators are doing is breeding hatred into the white population of Muslims. Most Muslims want to get on with their lives in peace and now they are most likely to become targets for aggression.
I would like to have seen the Poles demonstrating like that in Germany in 1941, you can imagine the outcome.
the reason why these idealists can protest like that is because Britain has earned that right in blood, those soldiers have earned us that right.
The line that most fittingly slots into place is the one out of a few good men,
Son, we live in a world that has walls and those walls need to be guarded by men with guns. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Lieutenant Weinberg? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Santiago and curse the Marines; you have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know: that Santiago's death, while tragic, probably saved lives and that my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives. You don't want the truth because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties you want me on that wall, you need me on that wall. We use words like honor, code, loyalty. We use then as the backbone of a life trying to defend something. You use them as a punchline.
I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom I provide and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said "thank you," and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest that you pick up a weapon and stand a post. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you are entitled to.
This is the most memorable scene from any film ever IMO

This makes you think....
I hold our soldiers with the highest regard, they ought to be treated as heroes.
War is ugly, they are out there to protect our interests, even if this war were only over oil, would any of us give up our right to drive our cars in protest? I think not.
You can bet the protestors eat food and wear clothes transported by road vehicles, drive road vehicles and own products derived from oil.
If they felt that strongly maybe they ought to give those up.
At least our boys are there to fight combatants, those on the tube train and in the twin towers did not have that choice.
We didn't go there to kill innocents, thats where the difference lies
