About Colvin and his claims

h/t: Blazing Cat Fur     Terry Glavin has nailed it just right.

A closer look at Richard Colvin's claims about the lies of his lying bosses and their lies.
As I noted here, Richard Colvin has quite clearly insinuated that his one-time boss, Arif Lalani, Canada's former ambassador to Afghanistan, is both a coward and a liar. Turns out there is rather more going on here (or less, if you like) than that, and I suspect it betrays a lot about this preposterous affair that will, sadly, take a lot of the fun out of it too

  1. You should read all the testimony. It is quite informative. Here are the results from a webpoll I ran.

    WHAT IS THE MOST INFORMATIVE STATEMENT IN THE COLVIN TESTIMONY?

    "I have to say that I've never seen a prisoner in a cell" (39%)

    "I didn't witness any acts of torture" (35%)

    "I wasn't really following this quite as closely as I should have." (7%)

    "That's a good question, Mr. Rae" (7%)

    "it took me a while to really understand the nature of our detainee system" (5%)
