    Well he's nailed his colours to the mast... the only time he uses his head. I notice he plaintively cites "Battle of Berlin… Srebrenica or Rwanda.”

    Interesting. While O'Neill was chief political writer, his former entryist employer was bankrupted in court, for claiming atrocities around Srebrenica were a hoax. (O'Neill was present in support)

    "Living Marxism (LM) was at the centre of controversy for a 1997 article titled "The Picture That Fooled the World," which claimed that ITN's famous footage of an emaciated, caged Muslim man at the Trnopolje concentration camp during the Bosnian War was a deliberate misrepresentation. LM lost a libel case brought by ITN and journalist Ed Vulliamy, resulting in the journal's closure. Critics accused LM of engaging in disinformation and propaganda to downplay atrocities by Serb forces and to stifle debate about the Bosnian situation."
