"DNA might be difficult.
There is no body or grave or even proof that anyone died."

Oddly enough Keith those are the FACTS that utterly amazed me. The British Government in their haste to prove that all was being done above board engage in an investigation into the alleged murder of an Iraqi teenager - AND THERE ISN'T EVEN A BODY OR A POST MORTEM

This cost the British taxpayer somewhere in the region of between £8m and £10m.

Even the Judge Advocate stated that the charges should never have been brought.

To all those who might disagree with what I have said above, I will ask you one question. How many of you would be prepared to stand trial as the accused in a murder trial where there is:
1. No body
2. No postmortem to establish cause of death
3. A wide range of witnesses who are only there to testify against you because they are personally profiting from the exercise.
4. Where none of the witnesses appearing for the prosecution can identify YOU as the perpetrator of the crime.
5. Where this wide range of witnesses openly admit that they lied.

Now come on dianavan, I want to hear that you'd be prepared to put yourself in the dock and accept the judgement handed down under such circumstances - I don't think for one second that you would.

Damn sure I wouldn't - Thankfully, neither did a British Court Martial trying British Soldiers - Good for them - Now ACCEPT tyhe ruling of a legally constituted court - or are willing to demonstrate to all on this forum that you support kangaroo, drumhead courts where the outcome is set before the trial ever takes place.
