Most of the text content is pointless, but the video shows troops opening fire on unarmed civilians who weren't really doing much of anything except being noisy. To say the actions of the soldiers was cowardly and disgusting is an understatement. It's one thing to charge protestors, but to shoot them in cold blood? These guys aren't soldiers in my eyes.

I presume they were wise enough to have control over any filming.
Tbh if he was ex-SAS he might have been sent nuts by the crazy amount of shit we may or may not have made him do.
Because as we saw with the South African reporter being attacked and sexually assaulted and some of the stuff coming out of Libya about lynchings and supporters of Gaddaffi being hung and beaten to death, on the ground these things aren't as simple as goodies and baddies.
Good to see the FCO living up to their reputation too
International experts will argue that he hasn't really ever controlled that region of Libya and certainly not in the past few years. Libya is still, very much, a tribally controlled country.
It's worth noting that Banghazi is the region where this happened.
So, frying pan and fire spring to mind.
Once again they show how useless they are when people are dying.
