The worst kind of soldier's death

If you think you are joining up for the fun of killing a "Paki" http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2010/03/06/article-1256021-08886781000005DC-791_233x423.jpg when you sign up for Afghanistan, think again.

If you are signing up for the excitement of battle think again.

Most of the soldiers who die in Afghanistan die of being blown up by an IED usually, while they are looking for it.

It means having a job like road sweeping - hardly the most exciting job in the world - and then getting blown up.

None of the excitement of battle of running around shooting at people, running for cover, like in the movies.

Boring job, and then you get blown up, for Bush, Blair and Brown.

The Afghans have more fun, as you can see from the clip.
