Reuters: London police review move to excuse Muslim officer at Israeli embassy
Talkback
Title:A policeman has a duty to uphold law - cannot refuse lawful order
Name:Jake
City: State:
As long as the order is lawful a policeman cannot refuse the order or be insabordinate. This officer should be posted to guard a legitimate representative of a nation. If he refuses - discipline him. What happend is an Israeli is a victim of a crime? Will he refuse to help or take a report? What if the suspect is Muslim? Where do you stop with these excuses? The Police Union should protest the cowardly respons of the MET. Are they running a police agency or a boys scout troup?
Pathetic!
