Re: Chilcot Report
One persons terrorist is much like another persons terrorist .When you blow up a restaurant or shopping centre as is the favoured target of cowardly terrorist groups such as Hamas or the IRA take your pick it does not advance the cause of 'freedom' in any way.

As Julie says it is unfortunately true that one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter. It all depends whether you win or not. The winners tend to write history in their own favour.

Do your comments also include the Stern gang, whose leader (Begum) later became Israeli Prime Minister, but who in 1948, led the gang that blew up King David's hotel in Jerusalem, killing a number of British personnel???

Re: Chilcot Report
Anyway, the Chilcot Report, no doubt there will be a few copies around collecting dust on some barristers bookshelf next year at this time and that will be the end of it.....Unless of course we have another inquiry...If this country spent as much time looking forward as it does looking back what a great nation it would be....

The 7 year delay has already allowed all the guilty perpetrators to line up their alibis and evidence to protect themselves.
It's a white wash, cover up, brush under the carpet affair.
