"What gives you the right to dismiss eye-witness accounts of soldiers experiances and opinions as "lies""

1: How do you know for a fact that they were soldiers? Just taken their word for it?

2: IF soldiers how do you know for a fact that they were where they claimed to be? I believe one of your sources was the one that came out with seeing hundreds of his "mates" being shot by MPs - Well we know that that didn't happen so how much else of his "recollections" were utter codswallop? Did you check units against battle order? Or once again did you just take their word for it?

Any unsubstantiated account of anything I will regard with suspicion. I mean look at what not doing that gets you into believing. There are people in the USA and in the UK who believe that the invasion of Iraq in 2003 was all about Saddam Hussein having WMD and that Tony Blair said that within 45 minutes Iraq could "nuke" Great Britain.
