Bombe Surprise

    You couldn’t make it up…..the BBC happily giving Muslim terrorists and their supporters free propaganda. A programme that was supposed to investigate a conspiracy theory that the British government planned the 7/7 bombings, fronted by Irish comedian Andrew Maxwell, was haphazard in its approach and patchy in its ‘evidence’, not looking too deeply at issues raised.
