> Former Met Top Cop Blames “Foreign Policy and Iraq” for 7/7 Bombings
>A bizarre but perhaps unsurprising intervention from former Met police Assistant Commissioner Neil Basu who tells The Guardian on the twentieth anniversary of the attacks:
>“A driver of the 7/7 attacks was foreign policy and Iraq. That does not excuse in any way what they did. That foreign policy decision has radicalised and made extremists of people who might not have been radicalised or extreme. And if they were on the pathway, it’s pretty much guaranteed… All terrorists will have a freedom fighter story.”
>That’s the same Neil Basu who called British policing institutionally racist, alleged Suella Braverman used “horrific” rhetoric about migrants, and said Farage was giving the EDL “succour.” No wonder British policing is in such a dire state after years of this ‘leadership’…
Why do we allow foreigners to rise up the ranks?
