Winston Churchill is throwing up in his grave.
The word “hero” is misused in the media on a daily basis. Football players, however good they may be, are not heroes; actors, however dashing, are not heroes; politicians, however bold they may be, are not heroes. Bob Curry, 64, known as “Backdoor Bob” after being first to storm the Iranian Embassy in London during the 1980 siege, put his life on the line to save others — he is a hero.
He is also homeless.

Meanwhile, the only terrorist to survive the SAS raid to free the hostages, Fowzi Nejad, 61, now lives at the British taxpayers’ expense in a London apartment. More here.
This is how the the twisted “Human Rights” ideology of the left pans out. The wrongdoers, the law breakers, those who seek to destroy our culture, or civilization — they get the plaudits and the treasure. The heroes are left by the wayside. If we in the West are going to survive and pass on our heritage to our descendants, we have to learn to put ourselves first — period. All cultures are not equal, all Faiths do not embrace the same ideals; we should not tolerate, let alone pander to those who bring us nothing but death and hate.
Iranian Embassy SAS hero who is now homeless says terrorist in 1980 siege ‘should still be in prison’ and NOT in a council house
- SAS hero Bob Curry, 64, became homeless after the collapse of his business
- Known as ‘Backdoor Bob’ after being first to storm Iranian embassy during siege
- He approached Herefordshire Council but it failed to provide accommodation
- But one of terrorists, Fowzi Nejad, 61, currently enjoys a ‘playboy’ life on benefits
By Keiligh Baker for MailOnline, 22 January 2018:
A former SAS soldier who became a national hero following the 1980 Iranian Embassy siege said today the only terrorist to survive the raid should still be in prison – as he slammed his local council for leaving him homeless.
Bob Curry, 64, who became known as ‘Backdoor Bob’ after being photographed storming the embassy, served for 16 years in the Special Air Service and had a 17-year military career.
But despite his service to his country he is now forced to sleep on his daughter’s sofa and in a B&B paid for by his old regiment after he lost his home.
Bob Curry, who became known as ‘Backdoor Bob’ after being photographed storming the embassy, served for 16 years in the Special Air Service and had a 17-year military career
Mr Curry, who appeared on Good Morning Britain today, revealed how he has been forced to sell off his medals and says he has been stuck in a constant battle with Herefordshire Council after becoming homeless.
Meanwhile Fowzi Nejad, 61, the only terrorist to survive the siege in 1980, cannot be sent back to Iran because of human rights laws so instead lives in Peckham, south London.
The 61-year-old has a plush flat with its own balcony, and as of May was living rent-free. The chain-smoker became eligible for parole three years ago after serving 28 years in jail and his application was approved in October 2008.
Mr Curry, a former sergeant, who has had two heart attacks and is registered disabled and a diabetic, saw action during the Falklands War and also served in Northern Ireland.
He became penniless after the breakdown of his marriage and the loss of his home following the collapse of his business, which taught veterans to become locksmiths, in July.
When asked about Nejad today, he replied: ‘As far as I’m concerned he should still be in prison. He murdered people in this country.’
Mr Curry, circled, used a sledgehammer to break a window in the central London building to free the staff there being held by gunmen. The the n 27-year-old special forces soldier was called upon to carry out the potentially deadly mission when an explosive that was meant to blow a ground floor window in failed to explode. He ran forward, kicked the charge out of the way, smashed the window with a single blow and was the first to climb insideMr Curry, who helped to save 19 hostages during the embassy siege, said: ‘If it wasn’t for the legion, I would be sleeping in my car or on a park bench.
He also revealed that in one of the B&Bs he has stayed in since he became homeless he had to ask permission to go to the toilet.
He said: ‘I had limited company from 1989 to last year, but when the MoD pulled the contract it all snowballed from there. I was left homeless on the streets and it went form bad to worse.
‘I got £20,000 for medals but it all went into the business.
‘It was heartbreaking because I was awarded them by this great country we live in. And it’s not just me. It’s the other veterans – the 13,00 of them living on the street.
‘They were normal people when they went into the military. We owe them a debt of gratitude.’

britaninstan, though your ingratitude and outright stupidity, when you need the support of patriots, you will find they are not there. All your borrowed money, snivelling and grovelling will not save britanistan from becoming rotted carrion for muslim colonists.

Agree. A country that treats its security personnel this shabbily and supports and gives freebies to terrorists . immigrants has no future. same story in sweden today.
swedish police is so overworked, outnumbered that the Police chief is begging for help from his own govt http://bit.ly/2s75qAn
But they are too busy bringing in more jihadis and dumb Left/liberal women I heard are allowing themselves be their sex slaves so they won’t be killed !

Sad but true, it has been, and is getting worse every day…
When the most popular name for babies, is Mohummad, your not even a country anymore, so yeah….but at least the muslims are getting what THEY want…a stealth takeover….but what they don’t realize, is that, by the time that country totally belongs to them, they’ve inherited a sh*thole….but maybe they like living in sh*t!

Sharia Law… It is ETHICAL in Islam for a Muslim male to discriminate, subjugate, enslave a Kafir. Kafir = any one who is NOT a Muslim. Get used to it, UK…. war hero needs to convert to Islam for “fair” treatment.

This is an appalling story. What do the leaders of that country have to say for themselves? Are they not ridden with shame. Is this how they treat their brave heroes?
I am left saddened and speechless by these actions. Are they just concerned about royal goings on, why don’t they fix themselves?

The BRITISH have for many years treated their Veterans with utter CONTEMPT from the Time of Elizabeth the FIRST & on to RUDYARD KIPLING & NOW !
What is different NOW is that the ENEMY is in our home & we are not only paying for this accommodation but the ABUSE as well!
It remains to be seen just how much longer the ABUSE PAID FOR will be TOLERATED????

One of the great fallacies is that the UK came to greatness on “the playing field of Eton”. That is ABSOLUTE garbage. The UK came to glory on the backs of its little people who have ALWAYS been treated like crap by the aristocracy and now the plutocracy. In fact the UK treated its OWN people far worse than ANY colonial, black white, yellow or brown and continue to do so. IMHO that muslim terrorist should be removed (by any means) ASAP and his accomodation given to Bob.

It was not JUST elite’s treatment of Britain’s brave fighting men, it was the citizenry from the bottom up, First stanza of Tommy, by Rudyard Kipling:
“I went into a public-‘ouse to get a pint o’ beer,
The publican ‘e up an’ sez, “We serve no red-coats here.”
The girls be’ind the bar they laughed an’ giggled fit to die,
I outs into the street again an’ to myself sez I:
O it’s Tommy this, an’ Tommy that, an’ “Tommy, go away”;
But it’s “Thank you, Mister Atkins”, when the band begins to play,
The band begins to play, my boys, the band begins to play,
O it’s “Thank you, Mister Atkins”, when the band begins to play.”

That was my point totally: the small people through and through, all now corrupted with affluence/decadence and turned into union fearing, reality TV watching couch potatoes who vote as told. The future of the UK is in their hands: will they awaken?

Yes, this is clearly the LEFT doing this in Britain. The government has been over taken by WHACKOS. Always was, really.
Remember that fatherless MORON coming back and saying, “we have peace in our time”. Then Hitler attacked about a year later (I think it was) and never looked back.
Britain almost lost the war because of this leftist fatherless MORON. Now we have the same thing occurring all over again. Some preacher said that Brits have become like doves (as predicted in the Bible). That is they trust too much and will be their undoing.
Brits, these people do not think like you, will never be like you. They have no honor or morals. Being nice to them isn’t going to work and will eventually get your throat SLIT!!
Then your heads mounted on your high fences.

Prior to WWII Great Britain had started to embrace Socialism. Many had begun to question the benefits of capitalism after the crash of 1929. Add to this, a hardcore communist living among them , Karl Marx. Marx could not have survived on the streets of England had it not been for like minded benefactors. Now, flash back to not long ago when retired Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher passed away. There was celebration on the streets by those who embrace Marxism and anarchy….The Brits have lost their way and in doing so have lost their language, culture and reason for existence. They, like the French will cease to exist as a viable people because they haven’t the cohesive guts to stand and fight back. They’ve become a Hollywood back lot with all of the props used to stage a ply of their former selves….Only a civil war can give any of them some kind of chance to take their country back from a group of corrupt compromised body politic. Worse yet, they’ve handed much of their power over to a people intent on over taking them within a few decades. It is all so obvious. I seriously doubt that the sons and daughters of a once great nation will ever rise up again because of a loop continuation of an educational brainwashing upon the next up and coming generation of sheeple. Therefore, the “Fix” is in and most of Europe is gone forever. WWII history has become hollow and tragically irrelevant of which begs the question…Why did all of those men and women die for?…….

It’s sad, when so many people join up with their military, all gung ho, to be a fighter, and are so proud to defend their country, get the bad guys, etc etc…..all to find out, that their nothing but a number, and their government didn’t really care about THEM. (Reminds me of the Michael Jackson song “They Don’t Care About Us”) That’s a hard fall to take! Too bad it doesn’t happen enough, that everyone KNOWS in that country, what will become of them, (that they’ll be thrown in the garbage, as soon as their usefulness runs out) and the government soon doesn’t have enough soldiers signing up…and become desperate! I’d laugh! I know it would be dangerous for the country, but just to see these leaders get nervous, and squirm and get worried…their getting their just deserves!
Until then, all these young men, are brainwashed to serve their ungrateful country…..
And to find out that right is wrong, and wrong is right….just like the good book says….

I began to be ashamed of my country twenty years ago when NuLabour came to power. I am even more ashamed now that May is betraying us to the EU. I hope she dies before she does any more damage to the country I once loved.
