On Tuesday 3 UK soldiers were killed by a rogue Afghan soldier.
On Thursday, the BBC is proud to announce it's exclusive interview with the man responsible (they think, since they can't actually confirm anything, that'd require actual proper journalism). Read how the BBC becomes the mouthpiece for the Taliban, and accusations of the slaughter of children and civilians, thereby justifying his very act.
Way to go BBC, truly you have plumbed the depths this time, bravo, you must be proud.

I suspect it is the line of thought that says giving terrorists airtime is justifying their actions. *NM*
