Looks like those photos were faked after all
Mirror editor sacked over hoax
The Daily Mirror said in a statement that it would be inappropriate for Morgan to continue as editor and acknowledged the damage it had done to the reputation of the British army.

"The Daily Mirror published in good faith photographs which it absolutely believed were genuine images of British soldiers abusing an Iraqi prisoner," the newspaper said.

"However there is now sufficient evidence to suggest that these pictures are fakes and that the Daily Mirror has been the subject of a calculated and malicious hoax. The Daily Mirror therefore apologises unreservedly for publishing the pictures and deeply regrets the reputational damage done to the QLR and the army in Iraq."

What galls me is that this wanker dares say ""All I want to say is we published the truth. We have revealed a can of worms. If the government chooses to ignore that, it is entirely a matter for them." even after it's been proved that the pictures were faked.
