I tend to agree with the sentiments expressed, just like the raping of Belgian nuns by th ’Hun’ during WW 1 was later disproved, and more recently the raping of Kuwaiti air stewardesses prior to the first Gulf war. Such ’atrocities’ mobilise public opinion by their horror to justify state violence. Margaret Hassan could have been killed by Iraqi gangsters who did not receive their ransom, but just as easily by Mossad/CIA. Maybe we will never know.
