Quote: Durham Giant "Yes it does.
It was a war . In a war targets are legitimate. It all depends on which side you are on.
Was Saddam Hussein a legitimate target, was Gaddafi a legitimate target'"
As government leaders, policy makers and the actual commanders of their armed forces, of course they were. The Queen is none of those. She's simply a figurehead. Attacking the Queen wouldn't be an act of war, it would just be an attack intended to cause nothing but fear and distress - that's known as terrorism.
And banging on about 'legitimate targets' is pretty irrelevant when they thought nothing of blowing up innocent people in any number of 'illegitimate' attacks. You can't ignore those crimes and support the attacks you decide you approve of according to your f*cked up moral compass.
Oh and I must have missed the bit where war was declared by both sides.
