UK - BBC: Claim UK troops 'executed' Iraqis

Is the BBC fabricating yet another war crimes story against coalition troops? Yep.

"Of all the allegations they make, the programme concludes that the evidence is strongest that prisoners were mistreated.

"Panorama has seen no proof that prisoners died at the hands of their captors at or after the Battle of Danny Boy."

But what headline does the BBC run with? "Claim UK troops 'executed' Iraqis" A claim the BBC already admit they have no proof of and admit they spent a year investigating.

"A BBC spokesman said: "Panorama has spent over a year talking to battlefield survivors, medical staff and Iraqi former prisoners in Iraq, Turkey and Jordan. "

I'm betting the BBC didn't spend one hour investigating those behind these false accusations. Take Phil Shiner for example. Here's what he said in the far left wing Guardian newspaper.

"What will it take for our government to face the awful facts of British detention policy in Iraq? Evidence now publicly available proves that UK forces had a systematic policy that led to the execution of scores of Iraqis in detention, and the torture of countless more."

Remember now, the BBC has already said that after more than a year investigaing Shiner's false claims the BBC "...has seen no proof that prisoners died at the hands of their captors ..."

Shouldn't the BBC's report and the Panaroma story be about how they debunked a far left wing anti war activists false claims over Iraq?

Even though the BBC has debunked this story they want to promote the idea that it could be true. Such is the BBC's hatred of Britain and her troops. Just add this the growing list of lies, fabrications and attacks on our troops.
