I dont think so!
Bush/blair have blood on their hands, for all I agree with the hanging of sadam, for all the good it is supposed to do  I feel a lot of hypocrisy going on. |
I will rephrase my question - do you believe that Bush/Blair, or any of the Coalition commanders, have directly ordered the killing of innocent civilians?
Or is it more likely that there have been civilians killed in cross-fire, by accident, by other Iraqis, and sometimes (imho, rarely) on purpose by troops who have been under unrelenting pressure and "lost it"? None of which lessens the death and suffering of the Iraqi civilians who have been killed or injured, but I find it hard to countenance that British troops would willingly breach the Geneva Convention.
