Thank you for answering ABIW’s post # 2472!
That is why I appealed to peoples values – it is a big ask to put the common good above one’s own welfare - look what happened to Dr David Kelly – BUT if he had stopped the UK going into Iraq, his sacrifice would have been worth it, in terms of Brit lives saved alone.
In this case, if an individual revealed information that established something different to the official line, he would indeed be risking his career, etc but surely worthwhile to get real justice for 29 people whose careers ended that day.
I feel sure that the members of that team aboard ZD576 must have known that they were risking their careers etc when taking a different strategic direction in their anti terrorism campaign to what the Westminster politicians wanted but they were doing what they thought was best for the British people.
What is needed is for anyone with significant information to have their courage and self sacrifice – we owe it to them.
Hopefully, this is such a high profile case that anyone falling foul of the “mandarins” would get much public support and perhaps also support from their colleagues.
