Terrorist-sympathising coroner attacks Jesus!

[Brother Temperance]

Coroner encourages terrorists, betrays freedom.

The first British soldier to die in combat in Iraq was killed by friendly fire because of the Army's "unforgiveable and inexcusable" failure to equip him with body armour, an inquest has found.
Sgt Steven Roberts went into battle lacking "the most basic piece of equipment", the coroner examining his death concluded. "To send soldiers into a combat zone without the appropriate basic equipment is, in my view, unforgivable and inexcusable and represents a breach of trust that the soldiers have in those in government," concluded Andrew Walker, Oxfordshire's assistant deputy coroner, at the end of an inquest which uncovered a litany of flaws in Britain's preparations for the 2003 Iraq invasion.
Mr Walker's damning conclusions further expose a British military struggling desperately to equip its forces to deal with the occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan.
Scores of troops have been killed in aged Land Rover vehicles which offer inadequate protection against roadside bombs, while there is a shortage of helicopters and doubts about the effectiveness of the SA80 rifle.
The Army is experiencing major recruitment problems - its size has fallen below 100,000 for the first time since the Victorian era - and ministers face criticism over the poor salaries of troops serving overseas.
At Oxford Coroner's Court, Mr Walker said he had heard "justification and excuse" during six days of evidence about Sgt Roberts' death, which has centred on the army's decision to take back the soldier's enhanced combat body armour (ECBA) three days before he died because there were not enough of the sets to go around. "I put these to one side as I remind myself that Sgt Roberts lost his life because he did not have that basic piece of equipment," he said.
When he died just after dawn on 24 March, 2003, Sgt Roberts, 33, from Shipley, west Yorkshire was clad in makeshift armour which he had made by stuffing pieces of padding into his fatigues and sticking them together with black masking tape. After leaving one of three British Challenger tanks patrolling a vehicle checkpoint east of Az Zubayr, in southern Iraq, he came under attack from a stone throwing insurgent wearing white face paint, which seemed to mark him out as a martyr.
Sgt Roberts'Browning pistol jammed in the dust - as have many others carried by the British forces. Then, a machine gun in a tank also failed, so the co-axial machine gun was turned on the Iraqi instead. But the young gunner who fired the fateful round had not been trained in the use of co-axial. He did not know it was a long-range weapon which, at short range, hit objects to the left of the sights - where Sgt Roberts happened to be.
The coroner last week asked former Defence Secretary Geoff Hoon to appear before him after hearing how the minister delayed for eight weeks before approving a request for extra ECBA kits in 2002. An MoD director, David Williams, appeared in the minister's place yesterday and gave evidence which revealed why military staff working for a Board of Inquiry into Sgt Roberts' death, earlier this year, had failed to unearth answers about the eight-week delay.
The lack of equipment was exacerbated by the coalition's decision, in January 2003, to invade Iraq from the south, rather than the north. Though an additional 4,000 troops were needed for the southern approach, the combat gear order had not been increased accordingly. A total of 2,200 troops lacked ECBA kits.

As ever, it's worth turning to the Bible to see what God has to say about this:
Ephesians 6:13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. 17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.

Psalm 144:1 Blessed be the LORD my strength which teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to fight:
2 My goodness, and my fortress; my high tower, and my deliverer; my shield, and he in whom I trust; who subdueth my people under me.

Time and again in the Bible, GOD tells us to trust only in Him. It is perfectly clear that the armour of righteousness will protect anyone better than any amount of enhanced combat body armour. If this soldier didn't trust in Jesus enough to be protected, that's very sad, but it's no excuse for this communist coroner to go around attacking the War on Evil.

I think you might have missed the point Brother.

He was just jealous of the Faithful US Servicemen whom the GOOD LORD through HIS appointed servant GWB sent to fight the heathens shielded IN FAITH, FULL BODY ARMOUR, PROPER TANKS and trusting THE LORD and overwhelming AIR AND GROUND FIREPOWER.

Those brits haven't gotten over being second rate in everything nowadays.
