Wounded Solider Forced To Sleep In Car

It's terrible, they didn't even offer an explanation to why. I bet people will avoid that hotel from now on.

I get a:
"404 Error

when trying to go to the article.

Found it.

Now let's see who actually READS the responses.

The news goes on to mention the backlash that the hotel is getting, with the switchboard being swamped with angry phonecalls ... I think the particular employee who turned down the soldier should be forced to be that switchboard operator for a week, instead of letting the actual person take the brunt of that barrage.

I think that was harsh myself, but for those of us here in the U.S., overseas in Europe, they don't take kindly to the war in Iraq or Afghanistan for that matter kindly. Tony Blair, the former British PM, sided with Bush to put British troops over there, but after a while due to pressure, he had to scale back on his troops and I don't believe there is as much of them there as we are. When we went into Iraq, it would have been only the US over there. And we caught a lot of flak behind it especially from European nations. sadly, it caused attitudes like the one this young soldier encountered and it wasn't right.However,more than an apology is due. just my two cents though.
