Re: [OT] Furthering the rant Re: Headgear

British forces have had a long time
administrating an Empire with dissident forces
that didn't really want them there. All that time
they had to keep an uneasy peace to keep things
calm and they've been at it for centuries with
out really pissing off the locals. They left the
colonies in much better states than when they
claimed them and they still keep good relations
with most of them with in the Commonwealth.

No argument; in fact, my point. Mesopotamia may count as a less than a
shining example, though.
