We can't expect them to be able to do the job they are meant to do while the government are stripping them down to the bone.

Under that note, I totally agree. Jesus, I didn't realise our army was so small... I thought we had a good advantage. I don't agree with all these cuts to the army at all. It's scary to think we're being left with such a small army.
When I say 'send our troops in' I never, ever would wish to send them in on their own. It needs to be a world effort to get rid of these terrorists. Not just the UK.
