Kitchener gave the order that Boers in Khaki could be treated as spies and shot.

He also signed the execution warrants for both Morant and Handcock and he was under no obligation to do so - he could have commuted their sentences as he commuted Wittons.

Was there any vicinity on earth which that blunderer did not defile?
