I have a feeling that Robert Fox is about to do just that. He was pretty scathing about the shabbiness of the whole thing when interviewed on Radio 2 this lunch time, and made a few interesting remarks about attempts to destroy evidence in A-10 incident. He also made some fairly pithy references to shooting PWs as well.

The Beeb News 24 review of the front pages for today showed that only the Grauniad and Indy weren't giving this prominence; all those that were have gone with the 'Colonel Tim stitched up by small-minded yank officer' approach - including the Mirror.

Suspect that the jealous little toad who started this off (assuming that the media haven't made that up...) may have cunningly ensured that the British media are about to declare open season on the US Army and USMC...

May I join you in seething?
