Yes. The question is why our Government is doing nothing, not even reporting that slaughter on 29 October, in the circumstances I have just described. Second, why did the US ambassador to Ireland not respond in any shape or form to that letter on my headed paper, which warned them of the impending attack that killed 23 people and injured more than 20? The British Parliamentary Committee for Iran Freedom warned the US Secretary of State, the US assistant secretary for Iraq and Iran, the US deputy assistant secretary and the US ambassador about this attack, also in writing. This is not good enough-----
