War Crimes in Iraq
[…] “shock and awe” bombing raids indiscriminately killed 15 – 35,000 people and injured untold others. This is an offence under article 8, schedule 6 of the ICC statute, enacted by the UK in 2001, which outlaws: (a)(iii) “wilfully causing great suffering”; (a)(iv) “extensive destruction and appropriation of property”; (b)(ii) “intentionally directing attacks against civilian objects” and; (b)(iv) “launching an attack in the knowledge that it will cause incidental loss of life”.
Tony Blair admitted in parliament (Hansard, March 23 2002): “If there is conflict there will be civilian casualties”; proving he knew the attack would kill or injure civilians.
[discussion of the sanctions] Madeleine Albright proved genocidal intent when, told that 460,000 children had died as a result of the sanctions, she said: “It is a price worth paying.”

But maybe only this small percentage should actually be allowed the vote as they're the only 'worthy' ones?

If you murdered somebody, why should we care about your rights? You didn't care about the person's rights who you just killed now did you?

Neither is how the UK is running at the moment with whips turning up and getting our MPs who are meant to be representing the public to toe the line instead, just incase anyone thought this was all anti-US.

But regardless of the headlines and the fact he's not lagging in opinion polls [Blair] keeps looking smug and he keeps getting away with it.

I think that the invasion of Iraq, sanctioned by both the Tory and the Labour party, was so morally hideous that any minor differences pale in comparison.

A metaphor. You are in a small control room with two psychopaths. The walls are lined with buttons, which you quickly realise are connected to some of the most sophisticated weapons systems on the planet. Probably neither psychopath will kill you, but they want you to decide which of them will be allowed to play with the buttons. You know that whichever one you choose will cause the deaths of thousands and thousands of people.

Joe, not everyone shares your exact stance on iraq. Myself and the above postee for a start i'd estimate that 95% of threads in this forum are about iraq, so do we need another one?

Remember, in general everyone wants worldwide happiness and justice (even Bush and Blair, though you might not believe it), we just have different ideas of how best to get there.

small arms trade, third world debt, asylum policy, the funding of "friendly" dictators and a glad-handed attitude to the truth would do just as well as indices of the underlying attitude.
