Iraqi Prisoners and War Crimes
1 May 2004, David Neiwert, Orcinus

Moreover, it shouldn't be a surprise that it has happened. After all, it's happened before in this "war on terror." Indeed, the pattern now is so strong that serious questions arise about the possibility that American officials could be charged with war crimes.
