I can see this turning into a can of worms. These soldiers have put their lives on the line. It’s seems to me that this is just judicial sport by an uncaring profession.

The SAS - very much the pride of Britain - are amongst the bravest and most dedicated people you could find anywhere in the world. They have made sacrifices beyond the imagination, let alone capability, of the majority of readers.

It's disgraceful that they are being treated in this manner, with a suggestion that they committed war crimes, to be judged by people who have probably never experienced the theatre of war or seen their comrades, their brothers, die next to them.

Meanwhile I see no inquiry into the possibility of a war crime having been committed by starting a war with Iraq, on the basis of WMDs that were never found, and countless other lies!

And illegal immigrants get housing priority over our brave veterans, people who have dedicated their lives to serving our country, the bureaucracy of which now turns against them in this disgusting manner.

These brave men have risked their lives to fight for their country. They should not now have to fight their country for their freedom.

I have signed the petition and I hope others will too.

The special forces of this nation exist to operate at the very sharp end and at the behest of politicians if and when they have the courage and the will to give a ‘green light’ to specialist operations.

Accusations levelled against those who follow such instructions in very challenging and dangerous environments are disingenuous and are perhaps politically motivated.

No government of this nation must ever allow any such law fare to undermine our specialist defence capabilities.

Cicero had it right - between arms, the law is silent.

You can't judge in war.

Unless it is naked murder pure and simple but the vast majority of serving Army officers and soldiers must be presumed to act with honesty.

Sorry, David, it is the way SubStack works. If we can we will figure out how to stop asking for subscriptions, since we are more accepting them.

We are small group of SAS veterans pushing for justice on behalf of Op Banner veterans.

We are not a charity. Not an organisation. We are not looking for funding.

We just want to spread the word of the injustice being done to fellow veterans — who are being hounded to their graves by lawfare — and raise awareness of the impact not only on them but on the nation’s future security.

This is sinister! Who in their right mind would join the UK armed forces when in 30yrs later you could get a knock on the door for killing an enemy in battle. Outrageous! A betrayal and this is an absolute disgrace and it's lawfare made up and used to attack white British men pure and simple! We have to vote Reform! Labour & Conservative politicians, Cowardly & Corrupt Home Office civil servant's have destroyed this country! The anger and hate I have towards them burns hot. This is what the British State does to it's own people. This is a sinister MUSLIM & ISLAM Policy I bet my life on it!
