There has been a great deal of debate on the topic since the actual event, but nothing conclusive either way.
Personally speaking, I put it down to human error on the part of the circumstances as they appeared at the time.
Either way, it was a Godsend for the UK but a seriously heavy price for the loved ones of the casualties incurred.
