He founded the War Studies Department at Kings College. https://twitter.com/LawDavF/status/1200740434504343553 The above is a link to a tribute from Sir Lawrence Freedman (they all get gongs), who was one of those chosen for the Iraq Inquiry who whitewashed the UK involvement in Bush's and BLiar's war on Iraq in 2003. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iraq_Inquiry ir John Chilcot (chairman) Sir Lawrence Freedman Sir Martin Gilbert Sir Roderic Lyne Baroness Prashar How they all love war, studying it, talking about it, writing about it and earning their crusts from it. To their own Hell I say. Never mind about Ali Abbas and the other millions, either killed, shredded or burned. Ali lost his arms - the bones were burned to white ash. Burns to his thorax too. https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/orphan-who-lost-both-arms-12112166 |
