Amos needs to read David Anderson's "Histories of the Hanged" before sounding off any more of that Mau-Mau-were-nigger-demons bollocks.

I saw the Pakistan and Kenya news by channel-flipping in a Turkish hotel. It was a good way to see how crap the BBC is. Their world bulletins focused exclusively on those two stories, when they weren't showing interminable trailers for their own shows later in the week. Did they even mention in passing that both Dagestan and Indonesia were being devastated by floods at the same time, as reported by the Russian news and al-Jazeera respectively? Did they hell. When the BBC World Service isn't pretending that it's still reporting on an empire, it's refighting Stalin with interminable rehashes of Cold War propaganda. We're *paying* for these fuckwits?
