The British way of going about war, in 10 easy steps.
1) Have a war declared on us.
2) Sit around, not really give much of a toss until push came to shove.
3) Absolutely wipe the floor with anyone who tries to f**k with us on our own turf.
4) Sit around a bit more. Have some tea, maybe a crumpet.
5) Come up with some astonishingly clever bomb and drop it on the enemy.
6) Make a film about said bomb and come up with some catchy music for it.
7) Let the SAS, SBS, Marines etc perform some daring raids which again will be turned into films.
9) Invade enemy country. Kick some ass, take some names.
10) Win war. Get home for tea and medals.
The Belgian way:
1) Scream: There come the Germans...
2) Wait until the allied troops free the country
3) Become the center of the European Union

Nowadays it is more along the lines of this.
1) Get told by Uncle Bush that we are coming to some godforsaken part of the Middle East for a few more gallons of the finest gasoline. If we dont Uncle Bush will be awfully angry.
2) Argue, lie, piss and moan, f**k the public about, and generally piss the UN off about a resolution which happens to be as illegal as murder.
3) Go to war without said resolution, claiming that God told you to go find the invisible nukes, nasty gases and some bad bacteria. Consider lobbing large quantities of Yakult over the border to sort the "bad bacteria" thing.
4) Capture oil fields first. (Primary objectives, naturally)
5) Finish off the country, ceremoniously ripping down any pictures of local dictator. Wait a few months then capture the dictator in question. Fail to find any form of nuke, chemical weapon, biological agent, nerve agent or sharp stick.
6) Sit in said country getting our lads blown apart by IEDs, Mortars, etc etc.
7) Have the home media slate the squaddies for being "heavy handed" with local grenade-throwing rioters. Said rioters get away with cuts and bruises.Still sit in said country with the locals sh*tting over our boys whilst they try and get the nation back on its feet.
9) Look for the earliest chance to get our boys out. Realise its years away.
10) Apologise on national TV and blame MI6 for "False intelligence" that led to the invasion.
