IF USA Cares About Int'l War Crimes Law-We Would Do Better By Delivering Cheney To The Hague-Instead

14. Exactly!

12 years ago, I would have been for taking actions against Syria to enforce international law against using chemical weapons. It would seem to be the moral thing to do.

But after we broke international laws against torture and had our wartime prisoners renditioned, to of all places Syria, to be tortured rather than adhering to the Geneva Conventions we have absolutely no standing. When ( and I do believe it is when ) we take some action, I hope every country in the world calls us on our hypocrisy. It is time for Americans to see this country for what it has become not what we are told it still is. We can still correct out course but we must first admit what we have done wrong. Bush/Cheney destroyed our moral compass and Obama hasn't done enough to set it right.
