I was very much against the invasion of Iraq.

Yeah, but Leo was quite keen on it at the time.

And not being smart, but he's going to be making the decisions and you're not.

Good find LaurelEye. Certainly gives more weight to lawnseed's initial post.

bullshit mayo they had their hands tied by their sheer effn cowardice. they knew exactly what was going to happen and they bottled it all they had to do was stand up for the innocent young men most of them under 10 years of age. sure they were outnumbered but they are soldiers- you know what you sign up for when you put on the uniform. we've have had it nice and cushy and have no idea what its like to be in a war, this 'rapid reaction force' sounds very grande we just parachute in and kick ass and get out. war is not rapid nowadays its guerrilla roadside landmines and blue on blue get a grip of yourself man why should we start a war with anyone. why do you think Brits want Irish passports when travelling to any of the countries listed one Nallys post plus many more. its because they have baggage. this whole thing is laughable we've no money to treat patients on trolleys but we have money to fight another country's war. fuk europe let them fight their own wars

I'm confused are you for or against European troops on these type missons. You are berating the Dutch, but by your reckoning they shouldn't be there in the first place. Mixed messages. It's not bullshit Lawnseed and I am entitiled to my opinion.

yes you are entitled to your opinion and if any irishman dies in a theatre of war it should be defending ireland and your right to your opinion not imposing european christian values to situations that are none of our business. irish troops are highly thought of for their fighting skills but most of all for their courage over centuries eg the san patricios of mexico city who fought to the last man. why should a proud nation of legends align ourselves with countries whose reputations are stained and who have ex colonial problems world wide. there is no confusion we can travel freely throughout the world because we have not engaged in imposing our will on others watch how this will change when we start sending armed soldiers abroad to do europes dirty work

Lawseed, don't get me wrong I understand what you are saying, but should Ireland stand back and pontificate when thousands are being macheted in a conflict in the tropics, or innocents hijacked from ships off the coast of the horn of Africa or mass executions, ethnic cleansings and land grabs worldwide. I want Europe to have a strong muscle to support our economic and diplomatic interactions in cases of crimes against humanity. We cannot let the Yanks, Chineese, resurgent Russia etc. bully the world. Europe has for several decades been the sane voice in the crazy house.

In this european force, which troops go in first? Is it based on historical relevance or who has the weakest economy? Will this "fodder" be fed by national service or similar?
