David Cameron: UK lost some ‘moral authority’ after 9/11
Britain and the US lost some of their moral authority after making mistakes in the wake of the 9/11 attacks, David Cameron admitted on Friday. In an interview with to David Frost on al-Jazeera TV to mark the 10th anniversary of the attacks, the prime minister cited the establishment of the Guantánamo Bay prison camp as one of the main mistakes. “Yes of course mistakes were made and of course you know what happened at Guantánamo Bay, there were mistakes made,” Cameron said told Frost on al-Jazeera TV.
“Yes, we can certainly see with hindsight, and in some ways at the time, mistakes were made in that we lost some of our moral authority, which is vital to keep when you’re trying to make your case in the world.”
I don’t believe “moral authority” means what he thinks it means.
Are you frikken kidding me?
