• NZ Defence Force admits it was wrong - again!

    From Rich80105@3:770/3 to All on Saturday, May 13, 2017 08:18:44
    The NZDF denied that there were any photographs taken, then when it
    was pointed out they had released some themselves, had to admit there
    were more - most of which have still not been released . . .

    http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=11854727

    which finishes with:
    " "The photographs are forensic evidence. It would be standard
    procedure to photograph the dead guys to make positive IDs.

    "In this case, they say they killed insurgents but provide no evidence
    other than their assertions."

    He said it was standard practice to photograph, fingerprint and take
    DNA or dental impressions from those killed to match up with
    intelligence reports.

    Asked what he made of the claim there were no photographs, Buchanan
    said: "That may be because they didn't kill any insurgents and the
    people they did kill, they didn't want to photograph." "

    But of course this is the necessary few weeks after it was a media
    issue, and after Bill English decided that there was no need for an
    enquiry . . . .

    The Nats, and the Defence FOrce, are trying to cover the issue with
    bullshit - there should be an investigation!

    Several years ago you accused me of telling lies. I asked you to cite three examples and you could not come up with one.
    So you were wrong about calling me a liar but you are too chicken to admit it as it might deflate your ego.

    I may well have accused you of lying in relatin to a previous thread,
    peterwn, but I do not understand the refeence to three examples - do
    you believe that a person is not a liar unless they have lied three
    times? Or is it some religious superstition? I certainy don't regard
    you as an habitual liar, and while I do not remember the exchange or
    thread involved, your post does not seem to be relevant to the thread
    above.

    Yet another comprehension fail from the ever lying Rich. You have made
    the same accusations about others Rich and have NEVER been able to
    provide examples. Your support of a lying turd like Hager and his
    fictional account of an SAS raid only proves you're just a trolling
    snowflake blindly supporting losers like angry Andy.

    Pooh
