If a soldier signs up to kill people the presumably a police officer joining S019 is doing the same Peter... or perhaps you are wrong. The members of my family currently serving would have no desire to kill anyone. If they were forced into a situation where they had to then I presume they would. That is the difference. You presume that because of your encounter with a supposed soldier the other week that all soldiers act in this way. This, as I'm sure you know, is not the truth. It sems to me that you are very much akin to the French and Russians; you hurl abuse at the British government and the members of our armed forces while you are on your farcical 'moral high ground' and when business has been done you are straight in there looking for business opportunities to line your own pocket. How much do the Chines companies that you trade with, and export goods for, pay their employees. Presumably, certainly morally, they are on the minimum wage... or are they just exploited for business!
