to be fair, a war crime legally has to have intent. now I believe there was intent behind this, but I dont have any evidence. if a missile went off course and then hit civilian targets, that's not legally a war crime, so I can see why any person holding high office, and any journalist, would say they dont have the evidence to make that call yet...
Well, like Russell on Due Dissidents stated right out of the Dick Cheney play book, "what are you gonna do about it." I always respected Dick a lot more than most political figures for this, none of your goddamn business approach. This is a more honest approach.
1. We haven't heard reports of deaths, will check into it;
2. The people were killed, but by a faulty Iranian rocket/bomb;
3. OK we killed them, but they were terrorists;
4. OK they were civilians, but they were being used as human shields;
5. OK there were no fighters in the area, so it was our mistake. But we kill civilians by accident, they do it on purpose;
6. OK we kill far more civilians than they do, but look at how terrible other countries are!
7. Why are you still talking about Israel? Are you some kind of anti-semite? Test this against the next interview you hear or watch.
I plagiarized this. Not sure who wrote it, took a screen shot of it at the time and substituted Palestine with Iran.
That title is just awesome. Nice take on Kennedy's ridiculous book. I think I'm gonna make a protest sign with that phrase!
