I ran into this video this morning. In it, the MSNBC commentator discusses a report made by the Red Cross wherein they unequivocally describe the treatment of prisoners in Guantanamo as constituting war crimes.
Let's all take a moment of silence to remember what war crimes mean. Here is a nice bit of historical background on war crimes just in case anyone intends to make light of them.
Will any formal investigation ever be made? Most of the kiwis I meet cynically say they don't think so--just look at Henry Kissenger. If we all remember and we all demand it, it could happen.
The Red Cross says that the US has committed war crimes.
