defuse the fact that Britain sold bullets to Syria

Do not be silly Jim.
I said I did not believe it in spite of the licence, because we do not make their bullets.

You blamed the statement on Jack Straw

No I did not.
I said I believed the statement because a number of people from within the community, or like Jack straw having long and intimate knowledge of the community, said it was so.

leave me alone
Gladly Jim. Stop theses stupid personal attacks and I will.
