It was in the 1960s that the British Tommy tortured, burnt people alive, rammed broken bottles up men's and women's ar*es and women's vaginas etc. All blessed by the Christian Chaplain.
And the British army has been involved in widespread torture and killing, of civilians, in Iraq and Afghanistan.
The Sunni greater Empire 'war' is being armed and enforced by the pro British Saudi Royals, without whose money, the City of London would be in sh*t street and therefore the British economy.
What appears strange bedfellows - savage Islamic Saudi Arabia and peace loving Christian Britain is actually the driving force behind the conflict in Syria - are mutually supportive because they both want 'friendly' governments that will protect the interests of British capital and Saudi Arabia economic interests.
