SAS murdered Jean Charles

The truth will out | 03.09.2007 00:57 | Analysis | London

The incompetent MI5 group ordered the killing of an innocent man by armed killers.

The truth will never come out because all MI5 and SAS related material is strictly confidential.

Like the murder of Diana, you know where it's been orchestrated from.

But what do you think?

So hard to argue with such comprehensive analysis.

Occam’s razor

03.09.2007 07:15

The problem with conspiracy theorists is that they will always claim there is a deeper hidden truth and that anyone who says there isn’t is also part of that conspiracy. The simple fact is that in most cases the simplest explanation that is consistent with the facts is usually the correct one. This principle is called Occam’s razor – formulated by the medieval English philosopher and Franciscan monk William of Ockham (ca. 1285-1349):
"Pluralitas non est ponenda sine neccesitate" or "plurality should not be posited without necessity."

In the case of the Menezes killing, the simplest explanation that is consistent with the facts is that he was killed by accident. What is also obvious is that police went to extreme lengths to confuse the issue and protect those police officers involved.

Where is the evidence to suggest an “incompetent MI5 group ordered the killing” or indeed that the SAS was involved? It was probably the case that members of the Special Reconnaissance Regiment may have been involved in the surveillance and it may have even been their mistake – as some anonymous police sources suggested.

Accidents happen and perhaps some police officers should have been held responsible. The real scandal is the way in which the police dealt with the matter after he had been shot.
