There is nothing more dangerous in the world than a man who thinks he is doing good. Such men are capable of the most dreadful horrors.

And it was such men who allowed and carried out the shameful torture which we now know for certain was inflicted by ‘our’ side in the great unending battle against ‘Al Qaeda’ or ‘ISIS’ that we are constantly told we are fighting.

This is why – as a patriotic Christian conservative from a Service family – I strive so hard to puncture and mock the ridiculous rhetoric of the ‘war on terror’.

If we continue to believe this self-righteous anti-terror rubbish, we will in the end be destroyed by our own hypocrisy.
