I edited my post and stated the following information:

7 July 2005 - London bombings
29 June 2007 - London
30 June 2007 - Glasgow Internal Airport

(Not all bombs though)

If you know information that terrorists wait every 5 years for another bomb to go off in the United Kingdom. Surely you know too much information and you should give this information to the Anti-Terrorism units maybe? Of course you don't. Unless you actually have inside knowledge of this at all, no one has said they wait every five years to do something.

So I was right, over 4 years ago, so we're fighting a war that hasn't affected us for about 4 years.

How are you correct? You said:

Where the heck do you get every 5 years from? Just because London was back in 2005. <_<

I was reffering to the bombings in 2005 and anyway, it's almost 4 years since we were bombed in '07

You said 5 years, all the other ones don't count now do they not? Just the London one? I don't even see the point in this argument over something so little as a little girls Daddy being a hero, it's just sick. If your dad died and you where 6 would you not say he was a hero? For going out in a war? It's just so ridiculous. Grow up and see the things that's happening around you.

Also, we was bombed twice in '07. So, that was 4 years ago too! wow. You've had no recent ones either?

Now I wouldn't say he was a hero, my granddad died in WW2 but he wasn't a hero.

I'll explain the three dates to you even more.

7 July 2005 London bombings:
56+ people died and over 700 was injured. (Yes that was caused by terrorists with bombs)

That is 5 years, 5 months and 4 days ago.

London 2007
On 29 June 2007, two unexploded car bombs were discovered in London.


I thought they did this every five years? Oh wait that is only: 1 year, 11 months and 22 days

Glasgow Airport 2007

On 30 June 2007 a Jeep Cherokee drives into the glass doors of the main terminal. A suspected car bomb failed to detonate.

These are not even five years apart. So are you saying the next one is within the next few years or so when it is actually 5 years from 2007? Shall we also include the plots that have took place? Such as the liquid bombs or even the bombs that were found in the printer inks.

Did he take part in the world war? Was in the armed services? Did he help out? If so, then he is a hero.

That girl/boy didn't ask me if you thought he was a hero, she asked me whether I'd call my family hero's if they took part in wars and thinking about it now, possibly I would, but fighting in a war that we brought on ourselves doesn't make you a hero.

These people sign up to the armed services because they want to fight for their country and they want to feel proud to be British and so on. They do not control what wars they are sent to, they are given orders and they follow them. They do their best to complete the missions and objectives and so on to ensure peace and safety is carried out. I may not agree with the full Afghan war but every single person who is over there fighting from this country or any other country such as the USA are heros and their family and friends should be proud of them.

So everyone that is in the army is a hero, Hitler took part in many wars, is he a hero? He was proud to be Austrian and he tried to complete objectives too.
