Strange report, and could result in more trouble if the British truly attacked the local authorities. Why couldn't they just quietly ask for these guys to be handed over?
That kind of depends on who is holding them, real police or terrorists in police uniforms ?
Here we go again. We must be the bad guys, huh? So undercover agents trying to infiltrate the SADR supported milita and renegade police end up being caught and threatened with torture in an outlaw police station. What would you have the Brits do? Wait for the men to have their intestines wrapped around a crowbar to force them to talk? Good grief.
This new thread may shed some light on what's going on down there:

It seems that this area has been overrun by Islamists.
The Democratic Party is missing their town idiot.
British always accusing our troops of Rambo tactics. Not saying this attack was unjustified, just their use of tactics they deplore when it's American.
