Let Us Praise Our Soldiers

As we so often criticise the media, let us at least acknowledge that various newspaper campaigns, and ITV programmes – but not BBC, have played their part in raising the public’s awareness of the shoddy treatment our armed services personnel have received in New Labour’s wars. At a time when our dead in Afghanistan has passed the 100 mark, also let our servicemen and women know that it was the BNP who campaigned for better treatment and acknowledgement of their value to our nation several years ago when it was not so fashionable to do so.

The BNP has continually campaigned for better equipment, yet it is a disgrace that our soldiers in Afghanistan and Iraq, fighting two wars that serve no British interests, are still partly dependent on the ubiquitous Land Rover as a battle vehicle. Many have been destroyed in both Iraq and Afghanistan by ambush with Iran-made roadside bombs, leaving the occupants either dead or crippled for life. It is the pure fighting ability of our troops in Afghanistan overcoming the handicap of shortages of helicopters and other equipment that has enabled them to claim that they have defeated the Taliban militarily: politically is another matter outside the scope of this article.

Our service troops do all this for a salary that is less than that of a traffic warden. But it is not only their pay that should be increased but the medical treatment back home that still does not live up to the promises made. According to a recent British Medical Association report thousands of injured soldiers are not getting the health care they were promised. Many are still on hospital waiting lists despite a pledge over a year ago that they would receive “fast-track” treatment and “priority” health care for conditions likely to have resulted from their service.

Dr Brendan McKeating, chairman of the BMA’s Armed Forces committee, said recently: “Only a minority of veterans are actually receiving priority care. The situation is disgraceful. If we are going to ask people to go out there and put their lives at risk then we have to offer them the best health care when they come back.”

The above appears in John Bean’s Nationalist Notebook in the July issue of Identity.

Righteous anger & political action:

The British National Party believes in telling the truth, even if it is sometimes uncomfortable to hear or offensive to those who would rather bury their heads in the sand than face real problems in our society. But while we often pass quite critical comment on the impact of immigration, multi-culturalism and alien religions on the indigenous people of our lands, we have no animosity towards immigrants, their descendants or the followers of non-native religions. Nor do we intend to encourage others to feel such animosity, or believe that anything we have to say is likely to 'stir up hatred' against anyone.

In fact, we believe that by providing a peaceful and Constitutional outlet for the anger and the frustration felt by millions of our people over the undemocratic transformation of our country by our political masters, the BNP actually defuses tensions. Where there is 'hate' we seek to turn it into righteous anger and political action against the only people who deserve to be hated - the politicians who use our taxes to turn our country into a place where we often feel like strangers in our own land.

    God Bless our brave boys - curse their immoral commanders (NuLabour).

    While the Lib-Lab-Con-EUSSR traitors have for decades provided overwhelming proof of their total lack of foresight or analytical intellect and are, hence, abysmally ignorant, they seem to be over-endowed with low animal cunning. This attribute has served them well in that, like a dog stealing the Sunday joint off the kitchen table, they know full well that they are doing wrong and must take evasive action in order to avoid the threat of retributive punishment.

    For the thieving dog, the threat is his angry master wielding a leather belt. For the LibLabCon
    traitors, the threat is the British armed forces.
    The gangsters programme therefore is to get our soldiers out of the country to fight two unwinnable, endless wars using equipment whose inadequacy is deliberately intended to increase casualties.

    Meanwhile, back in Blighty, slum accommodation, derisory rates of pay, and treatment in hospitals now predominantly staffed by hostile and abusive Muslim medics and auxiliaries are confidently expected to discourage recruitment. Potential recruits who are not put off will find themselves having to travel many miles to the nearest army base, thanks to the closure of so many local ones following the now long-established policy of disbanding county regiments.

    The LibLabCon organised crime gang is waging war not only against the indigenous, civilian population but also against those who must defend the civilian population when the time comes, as it will.
    Their latest move is to try to infiltrate the armed services by establishing Muslim fifth columns within their ranks. Muslims, as we all know, have no loyalty to this or any other nation state but only to the Ummah.

    In any future armed conflict between the indigenous people and the Muslim colonists, to take place when the latter believe themselves to be at a numerical advantage, such Muslim infiltrators would immediately switch sides, taking their weapons with them. The traitors must be lawfully arrested for treason and their place taken by a BNP government, preferably before the Muslims believe there are enough of them to start a civil war.

    Every now and again, it is right to give credit to the BBC and other media. Saying that however, it is all too rare we have to. We must always be the first to raise issues, with proof of date etc etc, then, when the masses need proof we were always correct, our job will be so much easier. Our armed forces deserve better, but we should know this more than any other party, as many of us were members.

    Our armed forces are underfunded and now McBroon has pledged £1bn to pay off the developing world’s foreign debt bill.

    “Brown said Britain would agree to pay 10% of Tanzania’s repayments to the World Bank and the Africa Development Bank, which amounts to about £3.5m a year.”

    We’ve been funding these countries for decades and it still hasn’t helped them. What places like Tanzania need is to stand on their own two feet and help themselves, not get hand-outs from the UK.

    The money saved would go some way to properly equipping our armed forces or providing adequate accommodation for them at home.

    May God bless the brave boys & girls in the British army, whatever their rank may be!

    Iraq is useless. We only went in because America told us to.

    However I personally feel that Afghanistan is a ‘little’ more just. As ‘Nick Griffin’ mentioned on Newsnight a few weeks ago, Muslims are a problem for the drug culture here in the U.K. He is right. Part of Military Annual Training Tests (MATTS) is drug misuse and I quote the video clip.
    “For £5 of drugs you may spend over here could kill one of your mates in the middle-east.” Speaks for itself.
    In Afghanistan the terrorists grow opium (heroin). They come over here (illegally), sell the heroin on the black market. The money is then sent back to the Middle East where they buy weapons and armour and use them to kill coalition troops and 1000s of innocent people across the globe.
    As you know terrorism is a global threat. Bali, New York, Washington, London, Glasgow, Madrid, Kenya… I could go on. I feel that we need a presence there as I would rather kill the terrorists in the Middle-East than have them rain fire and death over here.

    If we are to stop the drug culture here in the U.K. (or at least lower it). We need to win Afghanistan.

    Summary:
    Afghan is not serving British interests? Drugs (You mentioned yourselves) Terrorism - Global Threat! (You have mentioned it Yourselves). Iraq on the other hand - waste of time, money, men and resources.

    -
    Do remember that heroin production and trafficking has escalated massively SINCE the Invasion of Afghanistan. The horrifying truth about Afghanistan and the Opium trade:

    Getting our wounded troops the best possible medical care is right and proper and should always be at the forefront of BNP policy. But army medical care in Britain has had its back broken by years of mis-management, and caring for the worlds population, that it had no right to do!

    So as an add-on I believe that our troops deserve the best care the world can provide. No matter the cost. They deserve nothing less. Until a BNP government when NHS which will be the best. If we cannot do it send them anywhere that the best is at!!

    In 1917 the Russian revolution went off pop. The Russian troops at the front heard about it, thought “sod this for a game of soldiers” and went home where there were more important things to do.

    I wish our troops would have a “sod this …” moment and come home. We are going to need them.

    I cannot believe some of the stuff I have read on your website so far!
    This is completely maddening. Where I’m from, our troops are treated like heroes once they return home!
    I really cannot believe the state of Britain …..

    I’m sorry if I upset anyone here but I see things very differently to some other BNP members,

    1) I do NOT believe our gov. is trying very hard at all to stop drugs coming into our country, or that western govs. are trying very hard either. They lie and say they are but it actually suits them to have us high, stoned or drunken and off our face. They can get away with more. And they are. They actually want our next generation to be dumbed down, brain and liver damaged muppets.

    2) The BBC is not the organisation it once was - it no longer strives for excellence, and can no longer be trusted to be impartial. The BBC no longer broadcasts unbiased info. It is trading off its wonderful past reputation, but now has a dishonest Common Purpose agenda and is spreading mis-information to suit the Government. Nothing it puts out can be taken at face value any more.

    3) Drug Barons may very well be making big money from drugs but in whose employ are they? Something much much bigger is at work here. Who is really making the money from drugs? The money involved is multi-billions! Our poor troops are being used and abused - and I believe NuLabour and the American Gov. are war criminals.

    It is exactly like the Contras and Panama, Columbia, etc. in South America with the cocaine trade in the 80s. And the Bush family and the Clintons etc. were heavily involved with that. Vietnam was just a vicious bun-fight over drugs too.
