Some of the British still cling to the idea that the UK military are somehow different from the Nazis? (Daily Mail: rumours swell that the government staged 7/7.)

On 1 January 2010, The Independent (UK) revealed how the UK military had a Secret Army squad which 'abused Iraqis'

Iraqis have reported being tortured after being sent to the Joint Forward Intelligence Team (JFIT) based at the Army's Shaibah Logistics Base, 13 miles from Basra, between 2004 and 2007.

The British military are accused of having photos of a man sexually abusing a child.

In one account the interrogators made an image which had a suspect's head superimposed on the body of the man who is sexually abusing the child.

"The photographs were of Western faces and the people looked to be around 15 to 16 years old."

Reportedly the military threatening to spread the image throughout Basra.

One detainee says that interrogators threatened to rape his wife and kill his children.

Detainees' witness statements appear to corroborate each other by referring to named soldiers responsible for their torture.

Iraqi lawyers claim that the interrogators were a mix of soldiers, MI5 and civilian staff and that they took their orders directly from London.
