Investigations by UK intelligence, and independent groups, says that the tabeloid photos of British soldiers abusing prisoners in a truck was a fake - the vehicle, they say, is one that's never been anywhere near Iraq, and the photos were a set-up.

I'm pretty sure they wouldn't be stupid enough to attempt a cover-up or denial at a time like this, so they likely feel that they have good reasons for doubting these images. The same can't be said for the records of abuses by US guards, though, unfortunately. It'd be nice if it was all a huge terrorist propoganda scam, but that seems impossible now.
