I'm not going to discuss the recent protest at a parade by a British regiment returning from Iraq. As far as I'm concerned, it's tasteless, but it's allowed. We need to stop championing the tabloid line that our military personnel are sacrosant and immune from criticism, that anyone arguing whether 'our boys' are doing the right thing is guilty of near treason and should move somewhere else.
However, I was particularly amused by a placard at the protest bearing the message "Illegal War on Islam's Muslims". Does that count as a double negative?
