(5,734 posts)98. Dear God, look at that poor little girl in the third picture.
I have a little granddaughter that age - maybe 2 or 3. The expression on this child's face could not show more anguish had she been thrown into hell itself. Covered in blood - whose? Her own? Her parents'? Her siblings'? Standing next to a stranger, also covered in blood - her blood? - with terrifying weapons and power. Is she alone? Alone in the world, covered in blood? Is she old enough to even speak? Is she suffering without words? Could I picture my own tiny granddaughter in her place?
Could she ever recover from this?
I am so ashamed of her pain.

She probably sees herself as loyal and steadfast. I see her as complicit in war crimes.

It looks like a publicity shot for a show about rich, evil assholes, like a Dallas or something.

Yes, Judge Garzon. But that the UK actually held him was a victory for universal jurisdiction.
