Rupert Everett Accuses Soldiers Of Being Whining Wimps

After bagging out Americans last week, bitching British actor Rupert Everett has now taken a swipe at British soldiers.
Rupert’s, whose dad was a Major in the British army and who has relatives who earned the Victoria Cross, thinks modern soldiers are pathetic, claiming the whole point of being in the Army is wanting to get killed.
Not quite sure on who he mixes with, but at a wild guess, I would say there would be very few people, past or present who joined the Army hoping to get killed.
He claims that today’s soldiers are always whining about the dangers of being killed and says:
“Oh my God, they are such wimps now!”
“The whole point of being in the Army is wanting to get killed, wanting to test yourself to the limits. Now you have to fly 15,000ft above the war zone to avoid getting hit.”
“I don’t think there is any point in having wars if that’s how you’re going to behave. It’s pathetic. All this whining!”
“The whole point of being in the Army is going to war and getting yourself blown up.”
“That and pissing on prisoners. Yet we all get shocked by Abu Ghraib.”
“But that’s war. If you don’t like that side of it, don’t do it. Of course soldiers are going to piss on the first prisoners they take. It goes with the territory.”
It is worth nothing that the closest Everett has come to serving in any war is working as a rent boy after running away from boarding school at age 15.
This guy just seems very angry at the World, either that, or his career has faltered so far that he is using the age old technique of creating controversy simply to get attention. Maybe a bit of both. Go and suck another sav Rupert.
