Subject: RE: BS: Soldiers Convicted of Crimes in NI
Does this not shock anyone or is it because the ones being robbed, raped and murdered were just a bunch of Paddys.

I'm sure British troops on the mainland have robbed, raped and murdered English, Scots and Welsh civilians too. (As has just about every army since time began). Does anyone know if the figures for Northern Ireland are better or worse than similar data for British forces in UK, Germany, Bosnia, Iraq, Afghanistan, etc? And how do the British figures compare with those for US forces at home and abroad? Or French, or Russian, etc etc.
