international law. The only experience anyone needs to know that is literacy. Defending soldiers who commit such acts is paramount to defending murderers because they were abused as children. We shouldn't dismiss criminals because of their poor childhood. They are all subject to the rule of law. As far as your question, there are hundreds of thousands of soldiers and ex-soldiers who have a whole range of feelings about this or any other war. There are hundreds of thousands of soldiers who haven't committed these acts. One implication of what you are saying is that only a murderer could understand what it's like to kill someone and therefore only they are "in a position" to discuss it. What are you advocating? That only a criminal should be able to decide his or her fate because only they understand what it's like to be in their position? Should a jury of "peers" be a jury of rapists, murders, or thieves depending on the circumstances? |

The conventions were expressly written to apply even in such situations as when war is not recognized by both parties or if there is no armed resistance. It also is applicable in situations when war is not declared. |
Joker,
If none of us were interested in, commented on or thought about things which we didn't have personal experience in wouldn't that keep us all ignorant? What is education? I mean, not many of us here have a degree in biology but most of us have read something about, for example, evolution and have an opinion about it. |

You think this is the first time? "NAHA, Okinawa (CNN) -- Three U.S. servicemen were convicted Thursday in the kidnapping and rape of a 12-year-old Okinawa girl and sentenced to up to seven years in a Japanese prison. The sentence was lighter than expected; prosecutors had urged the judges to return 10-year sentences against all three, arguing that the girl was kidnapped, beaten, brutally raped, and then abandoned." http://www.cnn.com/WORLD/9603/okinawa_rape/ soldiers rape and kill, thats what they do. These guys didnt even get a decade in jail for brutally beating, gang raping, and abandoning a helopless 12 year old girl. If you think these people making Iraqis pose in Gay Porn will get anything worst you and all that think this are mistaken. |
