Ben Griffin speaking out about extraordinary rendition

by FoolBritannia @ 2008-03-26 - 00:54:26

2 years ago, the newspapers in the UK ran the story of Ben Griffin, the Ex-SAS trooper who left the service after refusing to return to Iraq to fight alongside US soldiers after witnessing dozens of illegal acts.

2 years on and Mr Griffin now finds himself gagged by an injunction after speaking out at the "World Against War" rally about the British collaboration with the US over rendition, torture and other alleged breaches of the Geneva convention.

Take a look at the video below; I think this is an incredibly brave statement given the accusations that he is making. Shame the UK media havent picked up on it to the same degree as less trivial matters such as how much our MP's are spending on their expenses!
