Completely non-historical

The [MI6] report criticises the Bush administration’s approval of practices which would be illegal if carried out by British agents. It shows that in 1998, the year Bin Laden was indicted in the US, Britain insisted that the policy of treating prisoners humanely should include him. But the CIA never gave the assurances.

A two-fer! Bush wasn’t President in 1998, but MI6 doesn’t seem to have a long enough memory to know that. Second, what a bunch of weenies that were more concerned about Bin Laden being safe than his potential victims.
