[edit] Ammended
Yes I am the interfering individual who ammended this article!!
I rather nasty period in British history bu this article does highlight the danger of this period in history turning into an anti british tirad.
- Firstly deal with the colonial and British govts as two seperate entities, both thought differently and worked differently.
- I feel a distinction needs to be drawn between army police and homeguard units.
- I feel maybe the need to delete cowan being given an MBE in this article probalbly give him an article to himself and place it there, was an obvious dig at britian.
- always refer to the KIkuyu when dealing with this period in history, to say africans is to general and implies that all africans were treated in this way, which contary to popular beleif was not so. - include extracts from both sides in this case cowan has shown himself to be a very nasty creature, and the prisoner the victim, this makes it more proffessional and shows that you are not making it up.
- this is my first ammended article so slate it if you want, i just happen to have had a relative who was in Kenya at the time and happen to now some things others don't.

[edit] A very tendentious article
This article only reflects the views of one section of opinion on this episode. It lacks references. maybe it should be deleted. The other Wikipedia article on Hola is somewhat more balanced.Pabailie 14:13, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
You just love to erase history you dont like. There is a detailed version here: http://www.ogiek.org/indepth/special-report-3.htm The other Wikipedia article you refer to is definitely distorted & pro British. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 82.36.33.106 (talk • contribs) 18:22, 20 January 2007.
