I can't find anything about this on the BBC web site. Considering their hatred of the US, this must be wildly false on its face for them to completely ignore it.

Perhaps Katrina vanden Heuvel can reprint it over here. On second thought, even she's probably rolling her eyes at this.

The Guardian/Observer has lost ALL credibility for the rest of human time.

Right.

Here's the pattern:

1. On a Saturday night, there opens a FR thread repeating a trashy British Sunday newspaper headline accusing the US of some militaristic crime.

2. People here who want a more militarily assertive US start celebrating that we are doing whatever awful thing the Guardian, Scotsman, etc., just accused us of.

3. Other posters wake up to the baseline truth pointed out by Dont Mention the War.

Next time, let's consider the source from the get-go.
