[quote="Fuchs66, post: 12873931, member: 16274So it's an either/or answer you're looking for? A nice black or white world view you have there!
Otherwise I will accept that the team of 3 top international prosecutors in war crimes trials and 3 leading forensics specialists are pretty damn sure that the evidence indicates there has been systematic torture and murder carried out by the Syrian government regardless of the source of funding for the report and the politically convenient timing of the release. Or do you only pay attention to such people if the findings suit you? [/QUOTE]
Youre repeatedly making a massive deal out of the credentials and background of these 3 experts hired by Carter Ruck on behalf of the Qatari intelligence services who are funding the case . Youve done that in a number of your posts in an attempt to convince people as to the the integrity of the Qtari intelligence services conveniently timed accusations . So lets just have a look at them for a minute .
Firstly Im well...extremely.. familiar with the track record of Sir Desmond Lorenz De Silva . Afterall he was the chap commissioned by David Cameron to produce a report into the state sanctioned murder of Irish Human Rights lawyer Pat Finucane in Belfast . Finucane was murdered in front of his family by a group of British military intelligence agents on the orders of their handlers,shortly after hed been pretty much marked for death in a statement made in the British house of commons by a British cabinet minister .
The Finucane family slammed this report by the eminent Lord De Silva as a state sanctioned
whitewash and a
sham
"It's a report into which we have had no input....The British government has engineered a suppression of the truth behind the murder of my husband. At every turn it is clear that this report has done exactly what was required – to give the benefit of the doubt to the state, its cabinet and ministers, to the army, to the intelligence services and to itself.....This report ...De Silvas..is a sham, this report is a whitewash, this report is a confidence trick dressed up as independent scrutiny and given invisible clothes of reliability.
Pat Finucanes widow Geraldine Finucane on Sir Desmond Lorenz De Silvas highly paid shilling for the British state.

read that Fuchs. Its very important to whats going on here. Simply put Lord De Silva has a track record of producing reports for British military intelligence services which flagrantly ignore the glaring truth. which ignore established facts and simply say exactly what the British military intelligence services want his report to say . No matter how obviously at variance with the facts that is . Hes whats known as a shill . And a highly paid one .
The next one, dear oh dear...David Crane . The same David Crane who has spent 30 years of his career working for the CIA and US military intelligence at the highest level ?
Interesting memo here
http://abcnews.go.com/US/story?id=95308&page=2
the guy is CIA to his backbone. The CIA work very closely with Qatari intelligence, the sponsors of the report and the providers of the evidence .
And finally Sir Geoffrey Nice . The guy who gained international notoriety as the cheif prosecutor of Serbian president Slobodan Milosevic . And who over the course of a 2 year trial spectacularly failed to prove a single instance of his culpability in crimes against humanity . And whos legal blushes ..and those of Tony Blair, Bill Clinton and NATO..were finally spared by the defendant being posioned in custody and conveniently dying . That Sir Geoffrey Nice .
The finest mouthpieces for western imperialist interests that money can buy . Thats who your eminent experts are . Shilling for Carter Ruck, who are shilling for Qatari intellgence, who are shills for western intelligence agencies . I wouldnt disgrace my backside by wiping it with any report those 3 stuck their names on .
