Bloody Sunday

The truth is finally out:

Quote:
The inquiry into Bloody Sunday has found the killing of civilians by members of the British army was "unjustified and unjustifiable".

Revealing the findings in a statement to the House of Commons, David Cameron said the soldiers were acting under an order they should not have been given.

The first shot was fired by the British Army, he said, but none of the casualities had had a firearm and there was absolutely no justification for the shooting of civilians.
"There are no ambiguities - it was unjustified and unjustifiable," he said.
"In no case was any warning given by soldiers before opening fire.
"They lost self control and forgot, or ignored, their instructions and training."

The Inquiry found many of the soldiers gave false accounts of what happened in order to justifiy their actions.

We've known this all along anyway. At least now, the ones denying it can deny no longer...
