Noel hits out at 'moaning' troops'
Oasis star Noel Gallagher has told soldiers wounded in Iraq to stop moaning about it.
In an interview in The Sun the singer said Prime Minister Tony Blair's decision to go to war was an "almighty cock-up".
But he blasted troops who claim compensation for injuries suffered on the frontline.
"You get a million people walking through Hyde Park - 'Don't send the troops and all that'," he said.
"The troops want to go, all they want to do is fight! They're soldiers. They're loving it, until they get shot - then they're claiming compensation. If you're bothered about getting shot - here's a thing - don't join the Army.
