youre missing the point alan. The poem is about the politicians that send soldiers to war. And my point is that it is the same now as it was then - political manipulation of foreign countries ,using british soldiers' lives to pay for it. And in turn it was backing up what Dave Wilson said about TE Lawrence and British activities in the area. The fact that then they were drafted and now they are volunteers is neither here nor there. Blair is playing in 2005 the same game as his predecessors played in 1917 and it is equally shameful now
