Nuremberg Tribunals calling the Bush administration's war criminals

Edited on Wed Aug-27-03 05:27 PM by protect freedom impe

quote

"We must make clear to the Germans that the wrong for which
their fallen leaders are on trial is not that they lost the
war, but that they started it. And we must not allow
ourselves to be drawn into a trial of the causes of the war,
for our position is that no grievances or policies will
justify resort to aggressive war. It is utterly renounced
and condemned as an instrument of policy."

U.S. Supreme Court Justice Robert L. Jackson
Chief U.S. Prosecutor
at the Nuremberg Tribunals
August 12, 1945

1. Yet, reportedly 61% of Americans believe the US was justified to bombard,

invade, and occupy Iraq. What am I missing here?

2. Yet, reportedly 66% of Germans believe Germany was justified to bombard,

invade, and occupy Austria, Czechoslovakia, and Poland.

Q: "What am I missing here?"
A: 5%?

(Yes, the stats are fictional, but the point is clear.)
