I know that this will be a derivative post, but it goes without saying that the remarkable incompetence in the affair of Jean Charles de Menezes verges upon criminal negligence if it is not, in fact, that already. Killing Menezes may have been a plausible decision with the information that they had. The problem, I fear, is that the information that they had on hand was so globally flawed as to be lethal.
