Putting up named soldiers from MOD press releases is easier to report than elderly dying alone in their homes/youngsters dying of overdoses/homeless dying on the streets.........you are what you read/view with the media

That was not the original question and nobody would disagree with your thought of respect. I believe the point of the question is whether 2 killed in Afghanistan doing their chosen profession should merit a headline rather than 23 died from neglect/inadequate NHS funding last night

okay i get your point there both in the same lege i gess but thats the gorvements falt about the NHS funding these men have died out of respect taking a risk on there on their life and dieing trying to make this world a better place and when people die from neglect then it would be on the news to so and i was going to join the army/RAF so thats why im so ******ed of with people on here disrecpecting but i carnt join becuse of my car acdident so knowing that i could have gone out there fighting for people out there and their not bothered and being disrespectful pissses me of !

Please be assured that almost everyone respects the guys and gals putting their life on the line and some losing them. I still think the original question is whether there are more serious problems back here in UK for a daily head-count as the headline. It is easy 'news' for the media if Jordan hasn't married another mug that day.

I guess when the media stop putting the latest deaths from Arghanistan on TV it becomes a forgotten 'war' which we got involved in for no reason other than Tony Blair suking up George Bush's ass

ok there might be more sirous storys but arnt they pu ton as well os its equal news really

In the Hague for War Crimes/Crimes Against Humanity contrary to international law and the UN Conventions?

He clearly led his country to attack another which was posing no offensive threat and caused countless deaths on both sides for no valid reason. He also did this in the knowledge that Iraq posed no offensive threat to the UK, and purveyed the obvious lies fed to him by another warmongering nation simply because we are defensive allies.
