Christian Voice Explains Hamish de Bretton-Gordon & Doctors Under Fire
QUOTE
BBC television news ran a piece bemoaning the bombardment of the
rebel-held East Ghouta area of Damascus on Tuesday morning 20/02/2018.
They interviewed Hamish de Bretton-Gordon, supposedly representing ‘Doctors
Under Fire’. What he said could have been scripted by the UK’s Foreign
Office.
The Syrian army is trying to recapture the jihadist-controlled enclave. De Bretton-Gordon appeared to be arguing for injured and sick children to be allowed to leave.
For De Bretton-Gordon, everything bad happening in East Ghouta seemed to be the fault of ‘Assad’ and ‘Putin’. The Al-Qaeda offshoot Jabhat al Nusra [ See Al-Nusra Front ex Wiki ] which holds the area held for him no responsibility at all.
Even the UN Security Council has declared Al Nusra a terrorist organization. These Islamists control the Idlib enclave as well. They have torched churches and beheaded opponents. Further evidence here. And De Bretton-Gordon had not one single critical word to say about them.
Liberation of Aleppo
Civilians were under fire, he went on. He failed to mention that Al-Nusra might be holding them as human shields, as they did in Eastern Aleppo. The Syrian army liberated that area in December twenty-sixteen.
The UNHCR tweeted in October last year: ‘After years of
darkness, city of
#Aleppo is lit at night, we hope that
#Syrians find light at the end of the tunnel finally
#SupportSyrians‘
We ran a report on Aleppo’s liberation at the time.
For the first time in five years the city’s Christians were able to
celebrate Christmas free from constant bombardment from the Al-Nusra
terrorists in the east.
Celebrating Christmas in Aleppo December 2016.
The US and UK Governments and the mainstream media hated the liberation of Eastern Aleppo. They will equally bewail the liberation of Eastern Ghouta, when it comes.
Indeed, during the BBC interview, Hamish de Bretton-Gordon came across as nothing more than a UK government sock-puppet. He confirmed this when he commended what he said were ‘the peace talks in Geneva’. We shall come to that below.
Doctors Under Fire
Mr David Nott is a respected surgeon but blames ‘Assad’ for everything.
But what of this man, and what of ‘Doctors Under Fire’? Well, the latter has apparently just two members, De Bretton Gordon and one David Nott, a surgeon who has been in war-torn areas. Mr Nott similarly finds no good word to say about the Syrian government.
Oddly, in a video on Vimeo from 2016 he says Doctors Under Fire will be a charity. The Charity Commission has no record of it, nor of ‘Medics under Fire’ which is what the Doctors Under Fire website is called. When you go to the website, at this time of writing, you’re invited to a rally on 7th May. On further investigation, that is 7th May 2016. Their website is two years out of date. Of course hospitals should not be attacked in war zones, but the Doctors Under Fire platform gives Messrs De B-G and Nott credibility to advance another agenda.
Hospital bombing scam
Furthermore,
this astonishing video collated all the times the ‘last
hospital’ in eastern Aleppo was put out of action by ‘Syrian regime
airstrikes’. Can you guess how many it was? And how do the
mainstream media source their footage of sick children, hospitals, and dare
we add, ‘doctors under fire’? They are entirely dependent on the
terrorists. No western journalist can venture into their areas. Why? For
fear of being kidnapped and held for ransom by the very people they
champion.
De Bretton Gordon also claimed on the BBC a hospital in eastern Ghouta had been hit. That was why they gave him a platform under his ‘Doctors Under Fire’ persona. But again, it was second-hand terrorist propaganda. Here, the impressive ‘Off-Guardian’ website exposes the Syrian totem head of the ‘White Helmets’, which was a British Foreign Office creation, as we investigated here. This relentless tugging at western heart-strings is a scam and the msm [ Main Stream Media ] know it.
Hamish de Bretton-Gordon
SecureBio spun off from Hamish De Bretton-Gordon’s time in the British Army
Hamish de Bretton-Gordon is a retired Colonel with an OBE. He commanded NATO’s Rapid Reaction Chemical Biological Radiological and Nuclear (CBRN) Battalion. He ran a company called SecureBio with, we read on this ‘military speakers’ website, ‘an impressive list of blue chip clients globally.’ However, Companies House says SecureBio resolved to go into liquidation in June 2015.
The Colonel now apparently works for a company which makes breathing masks, Avon Protection. His LinkedIn profile claims he is ‘Managing Director CBRN’ of Avon, despite not actually being a director. He also claims still to be director of SecureBio. He does not mention that company was dissolved in August 2017 with debts over £715,000.
Call for France to drop bombs on Syria
De Bretton-Gordon has teamed up with Avon Protection which makes breathing masks.
De Bretton-Gordon teamed up with Avon in 2014. Avon then took over the SecureBio name in June 2015 as SecureBio Ltd shut down. Avon did not take over SecureBio Ltd’s large debts.
De Bretton-Gordon no longer has any connection with military field-work. Nevertheless, he has continued access to the world’s media when subjects like Syria and alleged chemical weapons come up.
Securebio’s YouTube channel is still online and has a number of videos of the colonel calling for ‘safe havens’ for terrorists. He has appeared frequently on Sunni-Muslim Qatar’s Al Jazeera TV channel.
And as this Guardian opinion piece shows, he is not slow to blame ‘Assad’ and ‘Putin’ for each and every alleged chemical attack, just as the UK Foreign Office would want him to do. In this belligerent BBC article he even calls on France to declare war by dropping bombs on Syria.
Geneva vs Astana Peace Talks
Finally, why did the Colonel’s promotion of the Geneva peace talks raise the alarm? Because this is a UK-driven political view. In reality the Geneva talks stalled in February twenty-seventeen. The Kurds took against the inconsequential opposition in exile pompously called the High Negotiations Committee.
The Geneva talks finally collapsed in November when the Syrians would not agree to President Assad stepping aside, a key, but stupid, UK and US demand. The Guardian’s highly-respected Patrick Wintour says the talks De Bretton Gordon extols are ‘perilously shorn of credibility’.
Meanwhile, the real peace talks, unmentioned by the Colonel, have been held in Astana, capital of Kazakhstan. They are brokered by Russia, so the UK wants them to fail. But the UN’s Staffan de Mistura says the Astana talks are making small but ‘clear progress’ to reducing violence in Syria. They have now moved to Sochi on the Black Sea and we need to pray for them.
Terrorists should lay down their arms
Make no mistake, the UK government helped start the dreadful civil war in Syria. Even now its tame media pundits cannot bear the idea that the Islamic terrorists we assisted are mercifully losing.
They need to lay down their arms. But don’t expect the Colonel to agree. The Bible says in Psalm 120:7:
I am for peace: but when I speak, they are for war.
Colonel Hamish de Bretton-Gordon will keep ringing the UK Government bell. A knighthood cannot be far away. But we must take what he and the rest of the BBC’s pro-Foreign Office pundits say with a very large pinch of salt.
Hamish de Bretton-Gordon ex Wikispooks
Hamish de Bretton-Gordon (born September 1963) is a chemical weapons
expert and chief operating officer of
SecureBio Limited. He was formerly a
British Army officer for 23 years and Commanding Officer of the UK's
Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear (CBRN) Regiment and

De Bretton-Gordon is Managing Director CBRN at Avon Protection, the recognised global market leader in respiratory protection system technology specialising primarily in Military, Law Enforcement, Firefighting, and Industrial.[2]
Novichok nerve agent
On 4 March 2018, a Russian double agent
Sergei Skripal
was reported to have been poisoned in Salisbury with a
nerve agent which British authorities identified as
Novichok.
Theresa May told Parliament that she held
Russia
responsible for Skripal's attempted murder.
According to Hamish de Bretton-Gordon, Novichok was allegedly developed in the Soviet Union at a laboratory complex in Shikhany, in central Russia. Vil Mirzayanov, a Russian chemist involved in the development of Novichok, who later defected to the United States, said the Novichok was tested at Nukus, in Uzbekistan.[3]
Former British ambassador to Uzbekistan, Craig Murray, who visited the site at Nukus, said it had been dismantled with US help. He is among those advocating scepticism about the UK placing blame on Russia for the poisoning of Sergei Skripal. In a blog post, Murray wrote:
- “The same people who assured you Saddam Hussein had WMDs now assure you Russian ‘Novichok’ nerve agents are being wielded by Vladimir Putin to attack people on British soil.”[4]

Union of Syrian Medical Care and Relief Organisations (UOSSM) hospitals
in Ghouta were on their knees with very few medicines left, and that kind
words for the dying children were the only palliative care available.[6]

Al-Nusra Front or Jabhat al-Nusra (Arabic:

transliteration: Jabhat Fataḥ al-Šām) after July 2016, and also
described as al-Qaeda in Syria or al-Qaeda in the Levant,[34][35]
is a
Salafist jihadist
organization fighting against
Syrian government forces in the
Syrian Civil War, with the aim of establishing an
Islamic state in the country.[36]
The group announced its formation on 23 January 2012.[37]
The United States designated Jabhat al-Nusra as a foreign terrorist organization, followed by the United Nations Security Council and many other countries.[38] It was the official Syrian branch of al-Qaeda until July 2016, when it ostensibly split.[39][40]
In early 2015, the group became one of the major components of the powerful jihadist joint operations room named the Army of Conquest, which took over large territories in Northwestern Syria. It also operates in neighbouring Lebanon.[41] In November 2012, The Washington Post described al-Nusra as the most successful arm of the rebel forces.[[42]
In July 2016, al-Nusra formally separated from al-Qaeda and re-branded as Jabhat Fateh al-Sham ("Front for the Conquest of the Levant").[39]
On 28 January 2017, following violent clashes with Ahrar al-Sham and other rebel groups, Jabhat Fateh al-Sham merged with four other groups to become Their al-Sham.

Christian Voice ex Wiki
Christian Voice (CV) is a
Christian
advocacy group based in the
United Kingdom.[1]
Its stated objective is "to uphold Christianity as the Faith of the United
Kingdom, to be a voice for
Biblical values in law and public policy, and to defend and support
traditional family life."[2]
It is independent of religious, denominational, or political parties.[3]
CV is led by Stephen Green, with Lord Ashburn as its patron.[3] Green is the group's spokesperson, producing scores of press releases from 2005 to 2010. According to Green, Christian Voice had in excess of 600 members in 2005.[4]
The group has been criticised for its positions. David Peel, leader of the United Reformed Church called Christian Voice "a disgrace"[4] and described their "claim to represent Christians" in the UK as "absurd".[[5]
LeadershipStephen Green
The leader, and sole staff member, of Christian Voice is Stephen Green[6], a former Chairman of the Conservative Family Campaign, who attends an Assemblies of God Church. In the early 1990s, Green was a prominent campaigner against homosexuality through the Conservative Family Campaign, and wrote a book called The Sexual Dead-End.
In January 2011, Green's former wife, Caroline Green, accused him of repeatedly physically assaulting her and their children, including one incident where he allegedly beat her with a weapon until she bled, and another in which their son allegedly required hospital treatment after having been beaten with a piece of wood. The couple subsequently divorced.[7] Stating that the article was "highly defamatory" and calling it a "catalogue of smears and distortions stitched together," Green denied some of the allegations. On his blog he wrote:[8]
I sincerely tried to lead my marriage and household in a loving and responsible way, and one which was faithful to the Lord.
Positions
Christian Voice has called for
British law to be based on the
Bible.[9]
It opposes
abortion,[10]
homosexuality,[11][12]
no-fault divorce[13]
and compulsory
sex education.[14]
Additionally it supports the
death penalty[9]
and does not recognise the concept of
marital rape.[15]
The group has also published a paper
attacking Islam as untrue, and the portrayal of it as a religion of
peace as false.[16]
Homosexuality
Green has expressed support for the Uganda Anti-Homosexuality Bill (2009) and its associated penalty of death, stating "The Bible calls for the ultimate penalty for sodomy... A Parliamentarian in Uganda is trying to protect his nation's children. The House of Commons of the United Kingdom is trying to corrupt ours."[17]
Abortion
According to the group, abortion is the killing of human beings comparable to The Holocaust.[18]
Laws on marital rape
The group wants to overturn the law on marital rape, stating that the promises given by a man and woman to each other during the marriage service in the Book of Common Prayer establish a binding consent to sexual intercourse.[19]
Protests and campaigns
Homosexuality
The group has been involved in campaigns against the Gay Police Association (GPA). Christian Voice is opposed to police officers participating in gay pride marches, and in 2003 wrote to the Chief Constable of each force which it alleged allowed its officers to march in uniform at Pride events. The organisation published the replies on its website and, in the accompanying 16-page document Homosexuality and the Police, described homosexuality as "characterised by disease, degradation, death and denial" and Gay Pride as "intimidating".[20]
Since July 2005, a group of people led by Stephen Green has held protests against London's Pride Parade. Similar protests have been held in Brighton, Leeds, Belfast and Cardiff.
On 2 September 2006, Green was arrested while handing out pamphlets urging homosexuals to "turn from their sins" at the Cardiff Mardi Gras. The police considered the leaflets hateful. The Crown Prosecution Service decided to withdraw their prosecution of Green on the grounds of insufficient evidence; the police stated that this did not "challenge the legality" of his arrest. Green's solicitor indicated he would seek damages in civil court for "abuse of police powers."[21]
Green took part in a debate at the Cambridge Union Society (22 January 2009) titled "The House Would Rather Be Gay", where he opposed the motion.[22]
Blasphemy
Christian Voice was behind much[citation needed] of the controversy in the UK surrounding Jerry Springer: The Opera and a transmission of a performance by the BBC in 2005.[23] The group stated that the production was blasphemous in its depiction of Jesus, Mary and God as guests on the Jerry Springer Show. Green said of the production,
Jerry Springer the Opera portrayed Jesus Christ as a nappy-wearing sexual deviant, who said he was 'a little bit gay'. It called Mary a rape victim, said the birth of Jesus was because 'the condom split', ridiculed His wounds on the cross and the sacrament of Holy Communion, had God as an ineffectual old man who needed guidance from Jerry Springer and finished up with Springer as a counterfeit saviour of mankind who told Jesus to "Grow up for Christ's sake and put some f***ing clothes on."[24]
The group maintained a presence outside the Cambridge Theatre in London where it ran. It then mounted protests outside every theatre on the 2006 run of the show, attributing the financial disaster of the tour to divine intervention rather than its own actions. In 2009, it mounted protests outside the St Andrews University production.[25]
Christian Voice started a campaign for people to complain to the BBC and published the home addresses and telephone numbers of two BBC executives on their web site, Jana Bennett (Director of Television) and Roly Keating (Controller of BBC Two). Keating subsequently received death threats.[26]
On 8 January 2007, submissions were made on behalf of Stephen Green at Horse ferry Road Magistrates Court to pursue private prosecutions for blasphemy against the Director General of the BBC Mark Thompson and the show's producer, Jonathan Today.[27] A summons was refused on 30 January 2007 due to lack of prima facie evidence that a crime had been committed, and the provisions of the 1968 Theatres Act, which enshrines the right of free expression in theatrical works.[28] An appeal to the High Court was dismissed on 5 December 2007.[29] On 5 March 2008 the House of Lords rejected the call to hear an appeal of the High Court's decision because "it did not raise an arguable point of law of general public importance".[30]
The offences of Blasphemy and Blasphemous Libel were abolished by the Criminal Justice and Immigration Act 2008 with effect from 8 July 2008.[31][32]
HIV Vaccine
CV placed an advertisement in the New Statesman asserting that HPV vaccines would make young people sterile. In January 2009, the Advertising Standards Authority ruled that the advertisement breached advertising regulations on accuracy.[33] Christian Voice had predicted the ruling and responded "requiring the substantiation of a future prediction in an opinion piece is preposterous and an infringement of freedom of speech."[34]
Other
In November 2008, following the failed private prosecution by Emily Mapfuwa over the display of a foot-high statue of Jesus with a phallus in the Baltic Centre for Contemporary Art, Gateshead, Stephen Green urged Christians to "create public disorder if [they] wish such a case to proceed in future", and stated that the artwork in question would "not survive being put on public display again."[35][36]
On 8 January 2009, Christian Voice complained to the Advertising Standards Authority about the Atheist Bus Campaign's adverts on 800 buses across England, Scotland and Wales. CV objected to the slogan, "There's probably no God. Now stop worrying and enjoy your life."[37] On 21 January, the ASA ruled that the adverts were not in breach of its rules as the advert "was an expression of the advertiser’s opinion" and was incapable of substantiation. They also claimed that although the advert was contrary to many people's beliefs, it would not generate "serious or widespread offence".[38][39]
In December 2010, when the BBC aired The Nativity, described by the Church of England as a "gritty interpretation," Stephen Green objected to – in his eyes – the portrayal of Mary as a whore. He was documented in the press condemning the presentation saying "They wouldn’t mock the birth of Muhammad, or anything to do with his life story. They wouldn’t ridicule Hinduism or Sikhism, but Christianity is their big target."[40]
Controversy
In February 2005, Christian Voice was reported to have caused the cancer charity, Maggie's Centres, to decline a £3,000 donation from the proceeds of a special performance of Jerry Springer: The Opera. The charity had been due to receive £10 per ticket for an afternoon gala but declined the donation after CV had threatened to picket their centres, which offer palliative care to cancer sufferers and their families.[10][41]
In June 2005, Christian Voice's bankers, the Co-operative Bank, instructed the group to close its account because the group's stance on homosexuality was in conflict with the bank's ethical policies of diversity.[12][42] The Gay Times awarded an ethical corporate stance award to the Co-operative Bank in response to this move.[43] In response to this, Christian Voice encouraged a boycott of the bank.[44]
Media coverage
After the appearance of Green on
Question Time in September 2005, the group was condemned by David
Peel, then
Moderator of the General Assembly of the
United Reformed Church. Peel said:
It is a matter of some regret that ... the BBC should choose to undermine the reputation of Question Time by giving a platform to a small, self-selecting group distinguished by its claim to be a prophetic voice in this country ... Christian Voice has the right to express its extreme views, but it is as representative of Christian opinion in Britain as the Monster Raving Loony Party would be of mainstream political parties – and far less entertaining.[5]
On 11 March 2008 Stephen Green was interviewed by openly gay celebrity Ian "H" Watkins for the BBC Wales programme Week In Week Out[45] where he told Watkins his lifestyle was ‘sinful’, and made him no better than serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer.[46]
Green then appeared on the BBC Wales programme Dragon's Eye on 13 November 2008, after a campaign by CV caused the book chain Waterstone's to cancel a book-signing by Welsh poet, Patrick Jones, described as "obscene and blasphemous" by Green.[47] Jones instead read from his book at the Welsh Assembly[48] Philip Hensher, a commentator for The Independent newspaper, describes Green as a comic character, and Christian Voice as an extremist group.[49] In The Guardian he has been described by George Monbiot as a "ranting homophobe".[50]
In May 2008, Green was featured in the British Channel 4 current affairs documentary series Dispatches - In God's Name as a leader in the fundamentalist movement in the United Kingdom. This prompted Joel Edwards, head of the Evangelical Alliance, to write a public letter discounting Green's impact on Christianity, and calling him an extremist.[51][52]
