We Are the War Criminals Now
This is a sad article:
Hitler’s monsters were responsible for at least 50 million deaths–10,000 times greater than the victims of 11 September. The Nazi murderers were given a trial at Nuremberg because US President Truman made a remarkable decision.
“Undiscriminating executions or punishments,” he said, “without definite findings of guilt fairly arrived at, would not fit easily on the American conscience or be remembered by our children with pride.”
No one should be surprised that Mr Bush–a small-time Texas Governor-Executioner–should fail to understand the morality of a statesman in the Whitehouse.
