Donald Trump has sparked fresh outrage in the UK after saying Nato troops stayed “a little off the front lines” during the war in Afghanistan.
Labour MP Emily Thornberry, the chair of the foreign affairs committee, called it an “absolute insult” to the 457 British service personnel killed in the conflict, while Liberal Democrat leader Sir Ed Davey said: “How dare he question their sacrifice?”
Conservative MP Ben Obese-Jecty, who served in Afghanistan, said it was “sad to see our nation’s sacrifice, and that of our Nato partners, held so cheaply”.
The UK was among several allies to join the US in Afghanistan from 2001, after it invoked Nato’s collective security clause following the 9/11 terror attacks.
Listen to this Treasonous Chicken Hawk draft-dodger, criticizing someone else’s wartime service.
Dodging the Vietnam Draft is probably one of the more honourable things Trump’s done to be fair.
I also agree the Vietnam war was an unjust one, but let’s not pretend that he dodged the draft for any reason other than being a complete fucking coward
Of course
That doesn’t take away that he is a draft dodger and should shut the fuck up about anything military because he’s a coward (amongst hundreds of other bad things)
