I really liked EAGLE1, he was a funny guy with good ideas and we both sided here on every topic I remember. He is a British soldier in Afghanistan now.

EAGLE1 got banned from DebatePolitics a few days before he left to Afghanistan for a reason I don't know.

Britons are not right to be there.

This being said, I hope, EAGLE1 comes home well. He is a paramedic, he is not there to kill people. He is a good guy.
