What is your point?

BRITAIN has offered an amnesty and refuge to one of Iraq’s top military commanders in exchange for the secrets he has passed on about Saddam Hussein’s regime, senior military sources said yesterday.

The imprisoned brigadier-general, who studied at the Army Staff College at Sandhurst and speaks good English, was described by a British official yesterday as “a prize capture”.


Good for all in question. The guy and his family defect and are henceforth protected by Britain. US/UK forces get to have the secrets he tells them. Everybody is happy.
