Well, by all accounts, Gaddafi had surrendered and was unarmed when he was executed without trial or tribunal. That is a war crime.

Well then I hope they make comic books out of his war crimes.

Bravo, good sir.

we can't assasinate other countries leaders anymore?

Dead at the hands of an angry mob isn't exactly an uncommon outcome for a dictator.

Now I'm not saying they should have killed him... but I understand.

Since the rebels were non-uniformed armed belligerents that makes them enemy combatants and not subject to international law. Or so Congress tells me.

My thoughts exactly.

Meh, such is the end to those who wield power as he did.

ICC, when was the last time you had relevance? Your angry letters of impotent rage will surely show them they were wrong. The ICC is pissed because they needed to be able to try one of the dictators from this spring to re-assert their relevance. Sadly everyone else has passed on that offer, so they are just a bit fussy.

War crimes can only be committed by conservative US or British politicians.

Who are they going to charge with a war crime? It was an uprising

You mean letting an angry mob of rebels shoot, torture, and tear someone to pieces could be a crime?

/Saddam's head popped off, too!

thesubliminalman: we can't assasinate other countries leaders anymore?

Who's we? He was killed while in the custody of the rebels.

Maybe Chewbacca did it?

I wonder why they'd be scared by ordinary people killing off abusive politicians?

I have to say, if I were the Prime Minister of a large northern country, looking for budget savings, idiotic nonsense like this would help me make my decisions fairly quickly.

Intellectually, I know that's the case and that he wasn't given due process. On the other hand, I walked by the Pan Am 103 memorial on the Syracuse campus nearly every day when I was in college, and the horrible things he did were fairly irrefutable, so fark him. fark him hard. It's a good thing he's dead. I can't be bothered to give a fark that a monster who ruined many, many lives and crushed the people of his country was killed "unfairly."

More powerful monsters should be subjected to the sort of monsterous actions they perpetuated. There's a certain symmetry to it.

redcard: Well, by all accounts, Gaddafi had surrendered and was unarmed when he was executed without trial or tribunal. That is a war crime.

No Gaddafi was head of state, that's what makes it a war crime. No one gave a shiat about all the other people who were executed in Libya, nor all the ones they're murdering in Syria. Would be damned convenient if all the world leaders would go off each other.

Philip Francis Queeg: Dead at the hands of an angry mob isn't exactly an uncommon outcome for a dictator.

It's usually angry mob, assassination by aides, or exile. He had his chance for option C.

Can a citizen uprising actually be considered a war?

There were nato troops embedded in the rebel forces who were providing command and control. In fact, there were also US troops present.

The Teabaggers are bestowing sainthood on Gaddafi and that al qaeda guy from Yemen and are are still weepy over the extra judicial elimination of their hero Osama bin Laden.

Who the hell are they going to prosecute? There probably wasn't anyone giving an order, a hundred men couldn't have saved him from the mob.

You're full of shiat, it says no such thing.

ICC? Wait till they hear about the Lich King...

beta_plus: Only conservative US or British politicians will commit war crimes for which they will never be held responsible.

/FTFY

ICC?



I'd say killing his father, sacking Lordaeran, Quel'thalas, and then rising everyone to the undead would make Arthas and everyone within ICC guilty of genocide. So who the fark are they to talk?

You know what they say... you live by the war crime, you die by the war crime.

redcard: Well, by all accounts, Gaddafi had surrendered and was unarmed when he was executed without trial or tribunal. That is a war crime.

the American citizens who the administration blew up didn't get the chance to surrender and probably were unarmed. Is that a war crime?

Guess I wasn't as original as I though.

/shakes angry fist@amindtat

The term 'war crime' has, for many years, is applied not based on the action but the status of the people involved and how mush [insert Kofi Annan voice here] the international community] likes or dislikes you.

N.A.T.O. didn't kill him. In this case, this was an internal disagreement. There was no 'war' with another Country. Their own laws prevail here. This was none of anyone's business but theirs.

The other issue where Countries like the USA are involved, is the question; "Is it really a 'war crime' if there's nothing anyone can do about it anyway?

You mean like during "Shock & Awe" before Bush invaded Iraq?

Libyans don't play cricket, so the ICC has no jurisdiction.
