You must have missed the dictionary explanation of genocide , by killing Large group of people from a particular nation as a campaign of genocide. Indeed you probably are aware that many historians have written about the genocidal campaign perpetrated on us Irish by Britain. So I think genocide is u...

Re: Anyone still glued to this?

I see we have descended into abusing and insulting posters, instead of engaging in comment, and proving or disproving factual sources, with factual sources. Where ever they are, as its impossible to know which was which. It seems to be the case that Pureisle is the target on this and other threads. ...

Re: Israel and Palestine

All I can say is that this was big news at the time. There was much made of Nixon's intervention but I can't ever remember(and I was in my thirties at the time) an official pardon. There is also documentary evidence, that Calley was still before the Courts in 1976, and given that Nixon resigned in ...

Yep, like I said no justice served on any body at all, as he was pardoned by Nixon, and the people called for leniency for this atrocity with over 5000 telegrams to the white house . One person found guilty of bigger atrocities and murders in that instance than this one. My personal view is that any...

The Courts didn't see it that way. I'm not really interested in starting another thread to defend or decry the media, it'll be done as it occurs in other threads anyway. It seems the BBC paid significant damages over their misdeeds related to the interview https://www.reuters.com/world/uk/bbc-agree...

Actually kadman I think you have gotten this backwards to a degree.
