January 7th, 2009 at 16:23:27 Until the US follows its own 6th amendment we can't. The irony is that by breaking these laws the US is breaking it's own.
January 7th, 2009 at 16:46:26 Thanks for uploading this, giganz. Much appreciated.
January 7th, 2009 at 17:09:25 So how do we charge the US with war crimes before an international tribunal?
January 7th, 2009 at 17:32:24 Not hegemony in Europe, the US have always had hegemony in Europe by controlling Middle Eastern oil. Notce that whenever a state nationalises its oil industry the US step in and go to war and the British follow the Us like sheep. You control the middle east you effectively control the world. Iraq, Saudi Arabia and Afganistan are now just client states in a US dominated world. poor buggers, their fucked and there is nothing we can do about it.
January 7th, 2009 at 17:55:23 I guess he meant retire from frontline reporting. I think he only writes editorials nowadays.
January 7th, 2009 at 18:18:22 He hans't retired at all !! This is a year ago and he is still writing for london and travelling around.
January 7th, 2009 at 18:41:21 2 years on, I can understand his pessimism. End of an Era, Fisk. Good luck, with whatever you plan to do.
January 7th, 2009 at 19:04:20 Who said they didn't? Isn't this just typical of the guilty - start shouting about every body elses crimes?
January 7th, 2009 at 19:27:19 Technically this is feeding the troll but the answer is yes.
January 7th, 2009 at 19:50:18 Well then, you are wrong, but at least you are consistant in this. The US fought for the principles that were outlined by Justice Jackson (US) at the Nuremburg trials - the foundation of UN and world laws on international conduct, which they have since totally violated. In other words they are doing exactly what they fought the Nazis to prevent. I also notice that your 'Troll' like comments have attracted the same response from a lot of other users. Grow up or go away -
January 7th, 2009 at 20:13:17 Morally Israel has not a leg to stand on. Legally they are in even worse shape. If you have a case make it or go away.
January 7th, 2009 at 20:36:16 And Eastern governments don't lie?
January 7th, 2009 at 20:59:15 Gee, I thought we were seeking "hegemony" in Europe.
January 7th, 2009 at 21:22:14 Does he report on the death of Israeli's?
January 7th, 2009 at 21:45:13 Why do you think Israel holds that territory? For fun? Are you aware of history or just a moral idiot like Fisk?
January 7th, 2009 at 22:08:12 You're right, I was thinking of Lady Justice - Hard to understand how one could make such a mistake when America's foreign policy has so little to do with the 'Justice' they fought for in WW2.
January 7th, 2009 at 22:31:11 Google "Robert Fisk" liar and read the posts. Read David Pryce Jones's critique of Fisk. There are more....
January 7th, 2009 at 22:54:10 The Statue Of Liberty holds a torch and a tablet which bears the date of July 4th 1776-NOT SCALES.
January 7th, 2009 at 23:17:09 So Fisk has finally run out of lies! Thank God, now maybe we can get back to unbiased reporting from real journalists.
January 8th, 2009 at 23:40:08 They want 'freedom from us' (3:47)? In the real practical world really means freedom to control our oil and therefore our economies - and that will never be allowed to happen. Right or wrong or justice are all irrelevant concepts. Its about power and force. Pity the innocents.
January 8th, 2009 at 00:03:07 i think rhetoric is set of rules with allows you to transmit information effectively, so you dont transmit rhetorics. i think the source can not control the reciever, so if you dont understand it thats not my problem what is context? how can i write context in 500 letters?
January 8th, 2009 at 00:26:06 If you have information, philosophy or rhetoric you want to 'transmit' to another party it is your responsibility to make sure it is understandable. Your statements so far are assertions which without context or definition are moot, even meaningless. Assuming communicating some idea was your intent, yes you have made a mistake.
January 8th, 2009 at 00:49:05 raelly? maybe thats not my mistake
January 8th, 2009 at 01:12:04 I have absolutely no idea what you are talking about.
January 8th, 2009 at 01:35:03 The US has flouted the GC on many occasions, as well as being the leader by miles in vetoing UN Resolutions or breaking them. The premise for vitims abiding by the GC is simple - if you don't you are a war criminal too.
