And still silence, for the most part, on this side of the pond, Especially from those who more then supported the policies in Lockstep!!
27 September 2010 - The former Labour government's top legal adviser during the Iraq war has questioned whether the British military justice system is fit for purpose.
Lord Goldsmith told Panorama that some evidence has emerged that queries about the legality of hooding detainees were deliberately not put to him by the MoD.
Hooding detainees for interrogation purposes was banned in 1972.
The MoD denies any systemic attempt to circumvent the law or the Geneva conventions prohibiting hooding.
Lord Goldsmith, the former Attorney General, made his comments as two separate inquiries investigate the deaths of Iraqi civilians while in British army custody.
Reputation suffered {read rest}
