More Iraq Photographs.
War In Iraq, HGV Driving in Iraq with a war going on around you. Can you use a rifle, are you trained ex forces. This could be you on good pay, better than uk rates, no tachograph’s needed, no log books, no records, all mainly long distance runs, some road driving, some desert driving, being used to sand a distinct advantage, easy going disposition also an advantage, not easily alarmed, steady hand, adventurous types could have success, gritty dispositions useful, not worried by loud noises at times, not phobic about fire, or open spaces, or bullets.
This driver has what it takes, why not have a change of scenery, green can get boring and sandy colours can be quite calming when not disturbed. Delivering chips across the desert can be better than getting them, even if they are good quality. Of course this is no laughing matter, it can be deadly serious.
As an ex member of the British Forces of yesteryear, I pay the most serious tribute to all those who are in Iraq, or lost their lives in Iraq, trying to make it a better place, civilian or armed forces, they all play their part.
To those who think the war or action should not have taken place, you should consider that this planet is a small place, and when a part of it gets on its trolley and starts killing people because it has a dispute with them or grievance, then some action has to be taken, its a world with various types of technology, some types would be a disaster for this planet, every where, make no mistake, sitting back and hoping that extremists will go away, vanish, leave you alone if you look the other way, or do nothing, or placate them is not the case, its a tough choice, and lines have to be drawn past which action has to be taken,, but do nothing and a terrible price would eventually be paid by all of us,,, and it would be to late to say, "I told you so". Prime Minister Blair knows that, and he knows more than he can tell us all, of that you can be sure, he is the boss around here, we have to trust him, I am comfortable with that, and if you are not or don’t, I respectfully suggest you have to, or consider your view would not allow trusting any boss who is M.D Great Britain, if he or she makes a decision you personally don’t agree with. Before you can make any decision you need to furnish your self with all the facts, even the boss cannot do that 100%, but he can do it many times better than we can. You may think the security services are stupid, unknowledgeable, but that would be an arrogance from the unknowing
