    Yes, the Democrats are working over time on Damage Control, they screwed the pooch on this one big time.

    They guessed wrong on the surge, and they pissed of their Moveon.org, cut and run crowd by not being able to out maneuver the President of the withdrawal.

    Mr. Moreno-Ocampo rejected complaints activists had filed with the ICC accusing the U.S. of atrocities in Iraq. "The death of civilians during an armed conflict, no matter how grave and regrettable, does not in itself constitute a war crime," Mr. Moreno-Ocampo wrote, absent such factors as the deliberate targeting of civilians.

    Yup, that's right.

    Deliberate targeting of civilians.

    Like in Haditha

    Except that the CIA will probably burn all the evidence if there is any, the US will whisk people off to secret prisons and no one is doing body counts.

    Aren't you proud of your country?

    Long Island isn't the same kind of international shipping route. It's more like the Panama Canal.

    It was found that the Marines didn't deliberately target civilians in Haditha and charges have been dropped


    On April 17, 2007, the Marine Corps dropped all charges against Sgt. Sanick P. Dela Cruz in exchange for immunity during testimony.

    On August 9, 2007, all charges against Lance Cpl. Justin Sharratt and Capt. Randy Stone were dropped.[34]

    On September 18, 2007, all charges against Captain Lucas McConnell were dropped. [47]

    The investigating officer recommended charges be dropped against LCpl. Stephen Tatum.

    Yeah I bet if I murdered one year olds and was judge and jury at my trial I would get off too.

    Thanks for confirming how little real respect for justice the US has.

    Sorry Bigot but the court had access to the full information about Haditha, and video from the drone on station giving live feed back to HQ, and the video didn't back up the the action as reported by Sgt. Sanick Dela Cruz,

    SpAM, video, shows the whole thing, and the problem was the video had to be declassified to be used in the investigation, while that was taking place the news media, lynched the Marines in the action, it was know that there was video, and that it would be released to the Investigation, but the declassification had to go through channels, and that took time, but when the video was reviewed by the Trial Board it cleared the Marines, so sorry that your such a Bigot and don't have any use for Justice, but thank God you weren't the one judging the evidence, I doubt that you would have even believed the evidence of your own eyes in your thirst for blood.

    SAM. war is hell. Unlike a lot of countries, when the United States finds its soldiers have not acted in accordance with the law, they have been punished. And it is a sad fact as Buffalo mentions civilians unfortunately do get hurt in war...especially if the enemy uses them as sheilds.

    Killing a roomful of women and children (one year and three year olds) does not constitute combat.
