BRUTAL BELGIANS MURDER THOUSANDS IN UPRISING CRACKDOWN
Belgian Legionaires in the Lower Coprates Valley stationed Near Ophir have been accused of overstepping the bounds in a brutal crackdown on Martians according to a source in the Foreign Office. Troops under the Command of the Belgian Second Legion used machineguns and heavy artillery supported by Aerial Gunboats to put down a native Uprising in the the Village of Parhoon Waddi. Every living creature within several miles of the village was killed. British observers in the vicinity were stunned by the ferocity of the martian resistance fighting off repeated charges by heavily armed Belgian infantry with rocks and fists. At the height of the assault Captian Edger Howard, CB was heard saying " You know N_____I'm almost rooting for those Bully Johnnies".
Spunk the Johnnies had in spade, but it wasn't enough to keep back the onslaught of Legionairres and lead death that kept hammering away at their defenses.
After the smoke cleared and the Belgian Dead and wounded were carried away our observers were allowed to take a walk through the village. To their horror they discovered that the valiant defeses had been mounted not by Martian men, but by women and children!!!! People of Britain we should not let this insult stand!!!!
