Iraq abuse claims: 'Inadequate response' by UK government

BBC News - Iraq abuse claims: 'Inadequate response' by UK government:

"The British government's response to claims that British troops abused and unlawfully killed civilians in Iraq was inadequate, the High Court has ruled.
Lawyers representing 180 Iraqi civilians had called for a full public inquiry in Britain.

The court stopped short of ordering such an inquiry, but said there should be a series of further investigations into the allegations.
It said "a new approach" to the inquiry into the allegations was needed."
