7. Not one of these murderers has ever been punished for killing civilians!!!

Rule of law! Right!

I am told that 'we must abide by the Rule of Law' when it comes to DADT. I guess we must not, since we do not. But when I point that out, I am told I am trying to change the subject. Rule of Law, if you advocated for it, it is not changing the subject when you point out how selective we are in its application.

So Blackwater flies their own flag. Why not the U.S. flag? That is who is paying them. Are they ashamed of what they do?

Sickening, the whole thing from beginning to end, and even more sickening is the fact that not one of them, from the top conspirators down to the mercenaries has anyone been held accountable.

13. Jeremy Scahill gave a really good interview with AJ English about this

He stated that the Wikileaks files only expose the tip of the iceberg and Prince "knows where all the bodies are buried" and has threatened the US government that he'll expose everything he knows if his company is obstructed in its work and if he or his staff are charged for anything.

I'm paraphrasing, but the whole interview with him can be watched about halfway into this 1 hour special: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=385x518301

9. Blackwater needs to be investigated for war crimes,

Edited on Sat Oct-23-10 06:51 PM by felix_numinous

Guantanamo needs to be shut down and investigated, School of Americas or whatever they call themselves these days needs to be investigated and shut down, investigate all the torturers, war profiteers and all the psychotic sadistic groups who are attempting to ruin this country along with so many others. They have a social disease.

One purpose of torture is to torture witnesses to the torture, even us here reading about it, interesting it is released right before the election, I think it is galvanizing the left.

Unfortunately the RW cool-aid now has been spiked with hallucinogens, it's going to be a rough ride.

12. Fleeing to countries where they cannot be extradited like the dogs inAnimal Farm.

Just waiting to be released. Lack of justice and accountability means they can never be forgotten or forgiven. Join a group of henchmen and you become as guilty as any of them.
