THE words of Dr Harold Agnew, a major collaborator in the world's worst act of 'terrorism,' the bombing of Hiroshima, show well the mind set of the Tube bombers or the non-suicide bomber who have devastated Iraq for over 14 years: "My honest feeling at the time was that they deserved it... and that is still how I feel... there are no innocent civilians in war, everyone is doing something, contributing to the war effort, building bombs."
This 60 years later, knowing that 200,000 civilians died in a city with no military function!
Every man, woman and child was slaughtered with the same dumb indifference, and still sections of the right wing press in this country justify this war crime.
