There is one, true and only cosmic truth: Catholicism.

@volcaholic1 A gold cup? More likely it was an earthenware cup, you know, in keeping with Jesus and the Apostles’ lifestyle. They weren’t rich.

@3AngelsWatchman @ChristopherHale Do you know anything about anything? You seem so ignorant. Read a book or two if you can read. Take your meds and relax.

@MaryandLupe @Sachinettiyil Blame the Catholics who stopped attending church. When numbers fall too far the church becomes impossible to support.

WHO SILENCED DR DAVID KELLY

Most people scrolling past this have never heard the name Dr David Kelly. They should.

He was one of the world's leading weapons inspectors, a quiet Ministry of Defence scientist who spent years checking Iraq's chemical and biological arsenal for the United Nations. Nobody understood that file better than he did.

In 2003 Tony Blair's (@InstituteGC) government published a dossier claiming Saddam Hussein could deploy chemical weapons within 45 minutes. That one line helped justify sending Britain to war, a war that ended up killing hundreds of thousands of people.

Kelly knew the intelligence behind that claim had been stretched. He said so privately, off the record, to BBC (@BBCNews) journalist Andrew Gilligan (@mragilligan). Nothing more than a conversation.

Somebody in government made sure his name reached the press anyway. Within days a respected scientist with decades of service was dragged in front of 2 parliamentary committees and questioned like a suspect on live television. His wife later said he came home a broken man.

On 17 July 2003 he left his house in Oxfordshire for a walk. He was 59. He never came home. His body was found the next morning in nearby woodland, a knife beside him and a shallow cut to his wrist.

Now here is where the story stops making sense.

Instead of letting the standard coroner's inquest run its course, Tony Blair's government suspended it before it properly began and replaced it with a private inquiry led by a judge the government appointed, Lord Hutton.

It was never resumed.

To this day Dr David Kelly is the only person in England and Wales in living memory to die in unexplained circumstances without a full coroner's inquest ever taking place.

Hutton concluded suicide within months. Officially, that was that.

Unofficially, a group of senior doctors reviewed the medical evidence and said the conclusion was unsafe. In letters to The Times (@thetimes) and The Guardian (@guardian) they explained that the artery involved is so small that cutting it rarely causes fatal blood loss in a healthy person, that the painkiller level found in his body was well under a lethal dose, and that the amount of blood at the scene was too small to account for the death recorded.

In 2011 those doctors formally asked the government to finally allow a proper inquest. Attorney General Dominic Grieve (@dominicgrieve_) reviewed it and refused. Hutton's inquiry was declared sufficient. The matter was closed, again, by the people who opened it.

Think about what actually happened here. A civil servant quietly raised concerns about the most consequential political deception in modern British history. He was exposed, humiliated and found dead days later, and the same government that needed answers made sure a proper, independent investigation never happened.

Tony Blair went on to become a Middle East peace envoy. He was later knighted.

Dr David Kelly got a rushed private inquiry, a sealed post mortem report kept from public view for years, and a grave that campaigners are still fighting over more than 2 decades on.

Nobody has ever been held accountable. Not for the dossier, not for the leak, not for what happened next.

This story deserves to be told every single year, not forgotten. If you think that too, share it.
