Justice Israeli-Style

Is the common foot soldier responsible for all the crimes of a war? Apparently the Israelis think so:

A 94-year-old former Auschwitz guard on trial in Germany apologized in court to victims on Friday, telling them he regretted being part of a "criminal organization" that had killed so many people and caused such suffering.

"I'm ashamed that I knowingly let injustice happen and did nothing to oppose it", said Reinhold Hanning, a former Nazi SS officer, seated in a wheelchair in the court in Detmold.

Hanning is charged with being an accessory to the murder of at least 170,000 people.

This implies the following also is true:

*Every US drone operator is responsible for all the "collateral murder" deaths.

*Every guard at Abu Ghraib is responsible for all the injuries and deaths which took place there.

*Every US Marine who participated in the massacre of the inhabitants of Fallujah is a murderer or an accessory to murder.

*Everyone who knew our 2003 invasion of Iraq was based on lies also is a murderer or an accessory to murder.

Is that what we want? If so, let the arrests begin.
