I wasn't even aware he written about it- and I'm not going to bother checking what he wrote because it will be garbage . Safe to say, IF he claims hundreds then I would divide by a factor of ten at least just on the principle that he is, as you say, a serial liar. <br /><br />As far as I know no serious historian disputes the HH rapes took place, the question is who did most of raping -was it mainly Brit troops or 'freed slave labourers' and was it with or without the connivance/blind eye turned of the British military authority. <br /> jack ketchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07921268825653615322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1537213245172078183.post-37286172808733541242018-01-18T23:06:45.231+00:002018-01-18T23:06:45.231+00:00jack ketch:
