What, wouldn't want to answer the question?
"If that happened to your family by an Iranian, would you want the Iranian to be tried in Iran????
Yes or No...."
So why should an Iraqi family get justice from the US????

Like I said, it's an occupying army. They'll be doing some things, lots of things, that will piss off the locals. Some of those actions, like these rapes by individual soldiers, will be illegal; some will fall into a grey area, and some will be part of the day to day business of occupying a country and fighting a resistance. If you start allowing the local legal system to prosecute some of these, there will soon be a clamour to have all of them prosecuted locally. That woujld effectively hamstring the occupying army.

Legally they can't - the Iraqi Goverment agreed that British and US soldiers who comitted crimes in Iraq would be tried in their own country.

So therefore you are saying a large part of any millitary is made up of a large amount of sociopaths and psychopaths, are you still following.........
I just used the US army as an example......to hard for you?
Looks like your having trouble with following basic reasoning.
Oh well, what should we expect from some one who can only post when challenged with debate.

Really: learn how to read.
See that word there: 'some'?
Then you go and say 'a large part of any military'.
Maybe that's what you think, but it isn't what I said.
Some
1. Being an unspecified number or quantity: Some people came into the room. Would you like some sugar?
2. Being a portion or an unspecified number or quantity of a whole or group: He likes some modern sculpture but not all.
3. Being a considerable number or quantity: She has been directing films for some years now.
4. Unknown or unspecified by name: Some man called.
5. Logic. Being part and perhaps all of a class.
6. Informal. Remarkable: She is some skier.

Person A: 'some soldiers are psychopaths'
Person B: 'oh, so you're saying that most people in the army are psychopaths?'
Person A: 'how old is the battery in that hearing aid?'

Are you sure this was a full quote? I'm pretty sure he would have excluded the possibility of the Israeli Army ... sorry ... "Defence Force" ... containing anything but nice, clean-living young men and women who help old ladies (especially Lebanese old ladies) across the road, are nice to their mothers, do a lot of work for "charidee", stroke kittens, etc., etc. ...

Ok, lets make this a little more simple for people.....
Always = 100%
Most of the time= 76% - 99%
Usally = 50 - 75%
Sometimes = 25- 49 %
Occacianlly= 1- 24 %
Never = 0%
So, military service attracts some sociopaths and psychopaths would mean 25% to 49% of members of the US armed forces are sociopaths and psychopaths, according to Mr.
I think that is "A large part of the US armed forced are crazed sociopaths and psychopaths."
I thank you, winker.

This forum is meant to encourage the discussion of political issues, which does not in my mind mean single-smiley responses (or for that matter multiple-smiley responses).
It doesn't mean a lot of other things either but I'll start with that here.

Why not look the post up yourself: it's not that far back, or will that be too difficult? Also, why not read the thread before giving us your valued contribution?

The board provides the smilies; I'm assuming that means that they're a device to be used for communication.
IMO, the constant gibes and harrassment that nino directs toward me are perfectly replied to with the smilie provided. I'm exercising my freedom of expression.
You'll note that any serious attempts at discussion addressed to me by other posters receive a response in words.
Fridge, if you want to assume the position of referee, remind nino that the editor long ago told both nino and I to ignore one another. I did, for a long time, while his gratuitous comments following my posts continued. If he actually takes that advice, there'll be no more smilies from me.
But not necessarily true words though ...Johnny Canuck2 said:
