    I agree with poppies for those who died in the world wars, but not for those who were in places like Northern Ireland and Iraq or Afghanistan where innocent civilians were murdered by the British Army.

    To commemorate those who died in wars for the British, as a Jewish man I'm on board for the role they played in defeating the Nazis.
