You mention 'war criminals'; surely regimes that finance, promote & encourage UK terrorist attacks are the same then. Islamic (or any other) extremists are not bound by conventional rules so firepower, speed & agression are the only ways to respond to the threat posed.

    The one surviving terrorist was released from Prison and is now an approved refugee living in LONDON on full benefits and Council housed. This was revealed on Piers Morgans Good Morning Britain, when Piers interviewed Mr Curry who is one of the SAS team in this video, he was at the time HOMELESS and living on charity given to him by his old regiment, Piers kicked up a huge stink about this and Hereford Council bosses had to give in under huge public pressure. But thats not the end of it Hereford Council attempted to get Piers Morgan sacked from his job for calling them out! its all here on youtube Good Morning Britain! That in truth is how the British military are treated by authorities after they have left our services. its only those good volunteer groups who do their very best to help our old soldiers sailors and airmen. I reply to this in their honour. ( Veteran myself)

He is the main “actor”, and yet in other videos his face is blacked out. I get why, though. In the earlier videos it can’t be that long after they left the regiment, whereas in the later ones they’ve been out for a while and have probably spoken about their experiences, so more people know them.

Their decent treatment of the hostages and their statements that they had no argument with the UK government ,, Were ignored ! SAS who abseiled from roof top ended up hanging upside down in full view of the "terrorist " who chose to throw their arms down and not engage the SAS .. Despite that SAS searched the embassy and "nutted " non resisting "terrorist " Horrified hostage's seeing what was happening smuggled the surviving man out of the Embassy and resisted attempts by the death squad to drag him to a "nut job " within the Embassy .. So how legends are invented !

      AR The man the hostage takers killed was an Iranian rep,of the Ayatollah regime who hanged gays etc . They made it plain they had no grudge with British ,who were hostile themselves against Iran after the notorious US UK backed Shah regime with its murderous CIA trained SAVAK death squads were overthrown who liked to torture opponents of the Shah SAS men were not facing a life or death situation in the Iranian Embassy .. Hostages had witnessed the men throw down their guns ,offer no resistance ,once the SAS made entry .They could have easily killed sas man who ended tangled up in his abseiling gear outside the embassy window .. ISIS terrorist would have not hesitated to kill the helpless soldier .. US / UK bombers had bombed residential Iraq cities after 12 yrs of cruel sanctions against its people .According to HARVARD PUBLIC HEATH GROUP who visited bombed cities ,Kids were playing in streets awash with raw sewerage . Bombers had destroyed sewer works -water -gas -electricity--food depots-civic buildings ,police /fire stations -homes .communications.,roads etc An estimated million civilians died inc 500,000 children under five ,of malnutrition & disease THE LANCER . previously Iraqis had enjoyed decent health services etc. COLIN POWELL whose impassioned speech to the UN Security Council urging war ,later admitted he had lied lied on behalf of the BUSH OIL DYNASTY . and was very angry that he now had a BLACK MARK ON HIS RECORD but NOT A WORD OF REGRET IN REGARDS TO THE MANY INNOCENT CIVILIANS WHO PERISHED .. Or the aftermath on western civilians ..In NEW YORK Saudi s seeking revenge ,used the same tactics as US attackers ie Destroy ECONOMIC -MILITARY --POLITICAL targets Two out of three aint bad ..

      How many “fraggings”” do you think actually occurred? It may surprise you that
      documented and suspected fragging incidents totaled nearly nine hundred from 1969 to 1972.!!!

James G Zumwalt was deeply moved at the death of his brother Elmo from cancer ,after exposure to orange agent during his time as a Swift Boat Commander on Vietnam's waterways . His father Vice Admiral Elmo R . Zumwalt served as (Commander Naval Forces Vietnam ) had ordered the spraying of Vietnam's Inland waterways with deadly Dioxins . Still taking lives of Vietnamese & USA .vets . The Zumwalt family had always been deeply committed to the expansion of American Imperialism & a family member had engaged in every war since Independence ... full of enmity for the Vietnamese victors . he arrived in postwar Vietnam to study the ongoing effect of Orange Agent on humans & farmland .. Soon after arriving he was impressed how sophisticated English speaking former enemy officers were . The Vietnamese are a forgiving people ,part of their centuries old culture as shown by their humility in victory ---even seeking forgiveness from those they had vanquished . James realizes that many locals he came close to ,also had lost loved ones . He travels all over Vietnam .& after seeing the ingenuity of the people who had constructed 6/7 trails ,not just the Ho Chi Minh linking N & S . US could not have won a peoples war in Vietnam .was his opinion .

      david livingstone David, why are you trying to tell all this bullshit?
      I know him mate and I can assure you that's him narrating.
      Also, secondly he was most definitely at the Embassy, he famously dumped a full mag into a tango at the bottom of the stairs, the guy had a Russian grenade(allegedly) so I don't know who the fuck your on about.
      If you don't know facts keep your mouth shut in future, I know what I'm on about ffs!!
      I'm sure Peter or Snapper as I called him was finishing up in the early nineties, he as in Bosnia snatching war criminals so when that finished he semi retired from the camp.
      Where you've got 1969 from I'll never know.
      If you were indeed a friend of his and knew the family then you would know it's him.

    I understand that US forces (talking about SEAL #6 or DEVGRU, I think that they have changed name again, whatever) are a lot of levels better than 90's have close, similar level to the SAS but ... I think the SAS are more "pure", how else can I say it ...
    The SAS guys with the help of let's say, the classified military technology of the USA (and not all of of them, just some of the stuff the Americans have and could be used and we don't have a clue about it, we'll know about it if -of course not- will be used.. we're talking about some things that we can't even realize) would be the 101% PERFECT soldier.
    I mean soldier as human, cause I understand most of all that the technology matters most in these days and in a little time SFs will not be capable to deal with (if they're not already dealing with it) the technology. Specially to deal with classified above top secret technology that US and Russian have (but others too...) is impossible for a human, even a trained to perfection soldier.
    LOT of respect for the UK's SAS, the guys are simply amazing, real heroes
