Too bad we decided to protect War Criminals who killed over one million human beings. Too bad we have the arrogance to believe the World would not notice.
George Bush killed untold numbers of people in Fallujah with White Phosphorous and the damage to generations of people is ongoing, as babies continue to be born with horrible deformities in Fallujah ever since.
What do you think should be done about that? The victims are begging for justice. Should THEY be ignored as they watch their babies suffering years after that War Crime was committed?
We decided the exact opposite of what you just suggested. We decided to 'move forward' from War Crimes, when it was OUR War criminals we were talking about. But the VICTIMS have not, cannot 'move forward'.
We have an International arena to deal with these kinds of crimes. Why is the US refusing to use that avenue, which has certainly been used very effectively in the past?
What will dropping bombs for 90 days to do 'end the use of CW'??
Why are they afraid to present their evidence to the world and let a court of law decide the issue?
One country, with a vested interest, should never be allowed to go off on its own and do what we did in Iraq ever again. That was one giant war crime and the horrors are still ongoing and will be for generations.
