    Stanley McChrystal

    This war criminal should be one of the first ones investigated and imprisoned. There is documentation he imprisoned thousands of innocent civilians in Iraq. His prison was horribly run, torturing prisoners to death. He actively hid his prison from the ICRC. He took an active role in the cover-up of the murder of Pat Tillman.

    But no, he can't be investigated for these war crimes because OS Obama put him in charge of the whole fookin' war effort in Afghanistan and he was approved for that role in a voice vote by the Senate.

    See the diary at my name for links to substantiate the list of charges against this war criminal.
