Jacob,

Apart from your sophistries? Ok lets have a go!

Fact: the prisoners were in U.S. custody When they died - no dispute.
Fact: they died, of blunt force trauma As found by a US pathologist - hence the investigation which is not yet complete (despite your jump to conclusion).
Fact: this violates the Geneva Conventions on the Treatment of Prisoners (in a big way). Assuming, and this is your problem, they received the blunt force trauma while in US custody.

Now as to your ICC comment - what are all those criminals doing in Leavenworth? My god - apology - My deity, they were convicted by US military courts without any Europeans present.

There is presently no evidence of any whitewash on this case. There is evidence of a rush to judgement by some parties.

If the court finds evidence that they are guilty and convicts them - then so be it - and a credit to the JAG office and the medical personnel who brought it forward.

And so on with everything else you posted.

John
