He actually said that? I wonder if it happened to his children or grand children if he would feel the same way. I think not.
Defence Secretary Hoon said it BBC Radio 4 live, so he can't deny his words.
He continued his thought:
Quote:When put to him that the Iraqi mother of a child killed by cluster bombs would not thank British forces for their actions, Mr Hoon replied: "One day they might. I accept that in the short term the consequences are terrible."
In the short term, these children are DEAD.
