Ethnic Cleansing and Crimes against Humanity justified by UK Regime and House of Lords

'Thousands of Chagos islanders have had the right to return to their homeland in the Indian Ocean overturned by a House of Lords judgement.'  http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/7683869.stm
'Exiles of the Chagos Islands will not be able to return to their homeland, the House of Lords has ruled.'  http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/7683726.stm

international law...

well, since Diego Garcia, the main island in the Chagos Archipelago, has been used to attack Iraq and Afghanistan in illegal wars, has housed an offshore "torture prison ship" and has been used to refuel torture flights...and that it took the government almost 5 years of incessant lies and misrepresentations to admit even to a fraction of that, I doubt international law will do any more for the Chagossians at this point. A multi-billion pound bail-out for the bankers but it's far too costly to rehouse people we forced into homelessness in the first place. I wonder if the Americans pay as much "rent" for DG as they do for GTMO...
It's one rule for us and one rule for them...oh, and business as usual...
