    Default A disturbing slightly heavy topic - Official Secrets act

    Sorry, but I thought I'd discuss a heavy but significant story in the news. If you've got 10 mins, grab a cuppa and think about this story.

    Two men have been convicted of breaking the Official Secrets Act by leaking a confidential memo between President Bush and Tony Blair. The content of the memo has never officially been made public.

    The memo at the heart of the trial in Court Five of the Old Bailey will remain secret for many years to come.

    One day, perhaps 30, 50 or 100 years in the future, the contents will be revealed and British and American historians and journalists will pore over it at the Public Records Office.
    I think we should actually be studying this document now.

    This inspired me to dig deeper and find out the contents of the memo and found this...

    In domestic reporting of this case it seems our MSM is going to ***** foot around the case, David Keogh and Leo O’Connor leaked a memo that showed Bush wanting to bomb the Al Jazeera TV stations HQ (in Qatar, not in Iraq, ie. he wanted to attack a civilian target in a whole other country) and discussion of the blitz on Fallujah. In other words they leaked evidence of the planning of war crimes:-

    It's one of those stories that kind of makes you wonder about the people running the world.

    It's terrible that Alan Johnson, the BBC reporter, was kidnapped in Gaza.

    But the thought that Bush can seriously consider Bombing and killing innocents working for Al Jazeera, is absolutely shocking.

    What else has he been capable of doing?

    Nothing really surprises me anymore. A corrupt person is power is just the norm nowadays, unfortunately.
