Flippant Hague angers peace campaigners
Warmongering Tory denies systematic abuse
Tory warmonger William Hague riled campaigners once again yesterday after insisting hundreds of Iraqis' torture and murder cases have been "dealt with already."
The Foreign Secretary sought to pooh-pooh reports that the International Criminal Court could prosecute high-ranking British army officers following the submission of an explosive new dossier.
Filed by Public Interest Lawyers, the brief recounts the allegations of more than 400 different Iraqis entailing thousands of acts of abuse at British soldiers' hands between 2003 and 2008.
