My father and grandfather both served in the British army in the days when
you had to be born in the UK to join.
Does an Afro-American call himself White? And he has been there
something like 10 generations. Nope he is proud of his Black heritage
and makes no apologies about it. Even Obama who is half White has
identified with the Blacks and he has a good shot at being the next US
President, the most powerful man on this planet.
you are confusing an ethnic background with citizenship/nationality
silly but typical

Exactly. Being a Parsi is an ethnic designation. Born into it and
can't hide it. Nothing to be ashamed of and much to br proud of. I
had never made any crass allusions to his being Parsi as undesirable
or inferior. But it seems terribly important to Wee Willy to be
identified as being British (a citizenship/nationality status) as a
valid ethnic group that subsumes his Parsi(nicity). When Willie
launches one of his not very smart posts this "I can pass off as a
White any day " is a very easy chain to yank to bring Willie back to
reality.
By the way, before the original thread gets lost, Bush will not bomb
Iraq by August.
That's true, but then again, the U.S. has been fighting there for
years. Remember Saddam Hussein?
