David Cameron's RAF flies ghost missions to nowhere. What a nation of poltroons we have become, afraid of our own shadow lest it might offend.

War crime - no one crying genocide? Do you mean U.S. intelligence can't make out the difference between grain storage areas for Islamic State base ? What kind of idiots are there in intelligence ?

Can't be done. Like the State of Israel, the United States of America is not a signatory to the Rome Treaty which established the ICC. The ICC therefore has no jurisdiction -- not over the United States; not over Israel. All the threats to drag Israel before the ICC therefore are meaningless. It cannot be done. Although the State of Israel now has wonderful precedent to go in and destroy Hamas. And Hezbollah, if we were thus inclined. We will never again enjoy such a perfect opportunity. Israel really should take advantage of the situation. Hamas, Hezbollah and ISIS are ideological close-cousins, and all are deemed terrorist organizations.

A friend who works in the Pentagon told me that the death toll, in a week of strikes, is estimated at 60,000 -- nearly all of them civilians.

o condemn Israel for "unacceptable civilian casualties"
7. the US must be tank to the international criminal court
zionist forever   (09.30.14)
he US has just committed war crimes because some civilians were killed when they bombed a civilian grain silo. The UN must hold an investigation and the US and they must be taken to the ICC for war crimes. Where are the protestors burning American flags and boycotting American goods?
8. "Civilians"?
Brad ,   USA   (10.01.14)
But Islam maintains that there is no such thing as civilians. They prove it by attacking civilians and hiding behind their own civilians. The liberals agree with Islam's point of view on everything else. Why don't they agree on this point?
