Hillary Clinton made security help 'threat' to David Miliband over Binyam Mohamed case - Telegraph
But if Miliband has an IQ even just slightly larger than his shoe size he’ll realise that a cut in security cooperation would hurt the US just as much, if not more than the UK. If there is one country on Earth more paranoid about security than the UK it’s the US. Any threat to withhold security data would probably be reciprocated, which would possibly leave US security services wondering what they might have missed. It would drive them mad!
Mrs Clinton personally told the Foreign Secretary that the US government would consider the dramatic step if a short summary of the treatment of Binyam Mohamed is placed in the public domain, the High Court was told.
A hearing was told that the move could cause “serious harm” to Britain’s national security and potentially put the lives of British citizens at risk.
