UK Defence Secretary blasts Fisk for his irresponsible, unsupported claims
Not "a shred of corroborating evidence", other than that "supplied by Saddam Hussein's regime", that American forces were responsible for the two marketplace tragedies.
It's pathetic how this war is being covered by the press in the Middle-east and much of Europe. One big pack of lies and fairy tales told by the likes of Fisk. Despite the most accurate precision bombing ever in history, and extremely low civilian casualties, every ridiculous lie told by Saddam's regime is parroted as if gospel truth, and US and UK forces are demonized as if they were the ones who caused a million and a half deaths in Iraq.
