I allowed many hundreds of comments to be left on this video but due to some people leaving very hate filled messages i have now locked comments, sorry to anyone who wants to comment but i must draw the line regarding hate speech being left on videos and my channel, dont blame me, blame the haters.

Fundermental Islamic protesters sparked fury today after they burned a model of a poppy and deliberately broke the silence at Armistice Day commemorations in central London. As millions of Britons fell silent to remember those who have died in war, members of a group called Muslims Against Crusades clashed with police during an 'emergency demonstration' in Kensington, west London. As the clock struck 11am, the Islamic protesters burned a model of a poppy and chanted 'British soldiers burn in hell. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5MUAFuo9yr4

Laurence Binyon's 'For the Fallen' 1918
With proud thanksgiving, a mother for her children,
England mourns for her dead across the sea.
Flesh of her flesh they were, spirit of spirit,
Fallen in the cause of the free.

Solemn the drums thrill: Death august and royal
Sings sorrow up into immortal spheres.
There is music in the midst of desolation
And a glory that shines upon our tears.

They went with songs to the battle, they were young,
Straight of limb, true of eye, steady and aglow.
They were staunch to the end against odds uncounted,
They fell with their faces to the foe.

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old;
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

They mingle not with laughing comrades again;
They sit no more at familiar tables of home;
They have no lot in our labour of the day-time;
They sleep beyond England's foam.

But where our desires are and our hopes profound,
Felt as a well-spring that is hidden from sight,
To the innermost heart of their own land they are known
As the stars are known to the Night;

As the stars that shall be bright when we are dust,
Moving in marches upon the heavenly plain,
As the stars that are starry in the time of our darkness,
To the end, to the end, they remain.
The date of 11th November has now however become synonymous with death and sacrifice of comtemporary service personnel, it is no longer just about 1918 and has not been for decades in fact.
So just reflect on current times too, and even though it is a somber affair, give thanks and praise for the sacrifices those make to safe guard our peace and prosperity.
