English has treated us like morons over SAS allegationsTrust us: We believe the Defence Force says PM Bill English. In deciding no inquiry is warranted Bill English has dismissed the allegations, after a minimal review, as so much fake news, and treated the public like idiots. To say Keating is independent because he wasn't involved in the operation and that we can't examine every SAS operation is, of course, ridiculous. As an ex-SAS commander, Keating is hardly independent and no-one is asking for every SAS operation to be reviewed. But English has assumed he can treat the public like morons and perhaps he is right.
