I still think he or one of his aides googled 'Taliban' and got a hit on MoH or something. Political ****storm ensues for the sake of being political, or coming across as patriotic and winning some favors that way.

yea I'm aware of that.
It's not even about me being a gamer or one which play first person shooter similar to MOH . . . . what the man is attempting is putting too much control on what is actually happening in our own mind. He assumed the effect of playing certain game to the mind of its gamers. Nobody is going to be a terrorist because they played certain game. Terrorist may play the game or even liked it but if a British minister wants to control what game can and cannot be played by some terrorists who live some thousand miles away then he must be out of his mind . . .because he must first joined them to be effective at enforcing that.
Today I virtually killed 19 Takistan army soldiers and Takiban insurgents in one single engagement all sniped with the M107 Barret 0.5 cal from about a click away expending 4 magazines for those(Gosh that rifle is some rifle) and without me getting killed at all...it was GREAT FUN but that doesn't mean I'm now a US Army soldier or blindly identifying myself with it.
Nor it's the other way around.
Chill out, breathe some fresh air, go to a vacation, have some good sex with loved one then come to senses...life is easy as 1,2,3 why make it so hard?
