So Musharraf has asked the Scotland Yard to investigate Benazir Bhutto's assassination. He was probably trained at Sandhurst and may have friends in the British establishment. More to the point, he knows that the British are past masters at cover up and do it so efficiently that noone seems to question them. Take Iraq. The Americans have charged and punished soldiers for killing civilians and torture of prisoners. But stupidly they charge a soldier with murder and then allow him to plea bargain to a short sentence making them appear soft on crime and increasing the anger and hatred of their enemies. The British on the other hand do it very differently. First they start a propaganda campaign, faithfully reported by the BBC, that there is no evidence and all photographs are fake. Having destroyed all evidence they hold some farcical court case where they find every accused soldier not guilty. Thus they appear to have gone through the motions and the soldiers are protected for ever by the law of double jeopardy. The massacre of Irish Catholics, known as bloody Sunday, has still not been resolved and the millionth enquiry is in progress. IRA activists were shot in the back in cold in Gibralter and nothing happened. Enquiries into the scientist who committed suicide came to nothing and neither did the enquiry into the claim of Iraq being able to launch IMDs within forty five minutes. Recently Lord Levy was cleared of any wrongdoing in the investigation of Peers for cash. Jeffrey Archer was unlucky. Maybe he did not go to the right school. Musharraf has chosen wisely. Had he asked the FBI to investigate skeletons might have rattled out of the cupboard. With the Scotland Yard he can have a wee dram of Scotch and sleep like the proverbial baby. Cheers.
