Reblogged: A shocking tale of torture and indifference. UK diplomat Craig Murray.

A shocking tale of torture and indifference. UK diplomat Craig Murray.

Audio Interview: http://batemanbroadcasting.com/episode-26-shocking-tale-torture-indifference/ (approx. 43mins)

Lifelong diplomat Craig Murray had a career-ending experience as “Our Man in Tashkent” when he reported widespread use of torture and other malpractice by the ruling authorities in Uzbekistan.

He came unstuck when he sought support from his bosses in London, and particularly the then Foreign Secretary, Jack Straw.

Murray’s tale is not for the weak-hearted or for people who support the actions of those whistle-blowers who speak out when they see wrong-doing, expecting to be backed by their bosses.

Here the former UK Ambassador recounts his experience to Derek Bateman, examining the legacy of New Labour legacy in a week when revelations about state-sanctioned torture by the CIA under Bush /Cheney further threatens the reputation of the Blair government.

Former Ambassador of the UK to Ukraine makes jaw dropping statement about UK & US foreign policy we already secretly believed

Craig Murray, former UK Ambassador to Uzbekistan. Speaking at “English Scots For YES”.

He tells us why he is YES and reveals some horrendous truths about the UK/Westminster establishment.

Seriously, listen to the man! A jaw dropping 4 minute deconstruction of British foreign policy http://youtu.be/CIQ8VVn8AJA

This is no crackpot conspiracy theorist, this man is a former UK ambassador. 

This is an outstanding view of the unbelievably dirty realities that go on constantly behind the dark curtain of our shameful main stream media.

“the UK is a psychologically flawed, pathological state which is a danger in the world…”

He unveils the UK and USA policy of shipping prisoners for torture, some to death.

WMD Weapons of Mass Destruction “They knew for CERTAIN WMD did not exist.”

We did to the United Nations (over the IRAQ invasion) what Hitler and Mussolini did to the League of Nations.
