This um, Ausie, is probably going to reevaluate whether he is bound by US law
or not while he contemplates in a US penitentiary... room and board at um, my
expense... (US tax payer).
Yet somehow the American government will not let US soldiers be tried
for international war crimes. Boggles the mind.
Bullshit. The US military has tried DOZENS of U.S servicemen
for war crimes, including officers (usually the last to be
tried so as to use the testimonies of the enlisted men to
build even stronger cases against the officers).
The Milosovich witch-hunt demonstrates the danger of the international
criminal court. Milosovich long RESISTED THE DEMANDS of the Serb
populace to go to war, even as SERBS were being slaughtered in mass
graves (which the press widely and repeatedly MIS-reported as
evidence of Serbs committing atrocities, when in fact, the Serbs
were the VICTIMS of the atrocities).
The ICC is an unelected, unaccountable body, picked by people who
themselves are not elected and therefore has ZERO accountability
to the public, and therefore no legitimacy.
Feel free to shut the fuck up until you know what the hell
you're talking about.
