346. well, first I did NOT "call the POTUS a war criminal...."

I quoted the U.N. Charter-- which constrains Obama's actions just as it constrains other signatories-- and CORRECTLY used the term to describe violators of the Charter's aggressive warfare provisions. As did Ban Ki Moon the day before my post, I might add, in similar terms. Someone quipped below that the Secretary General was likely banned from the BOG, too.

But in any event, I said that it WOULD BE a war crime to bomb Syria absent an immediate need for self defense. I did not "call the POTUS a war criminal" because he was not, at that point, guilty of violating the Charter. And of course he did not violate it subsequently, so I never had to take back any accusations.

You can read, I surmise, so it's surprising that you've quoted a statement that does not exist in my post. Now, I'll readily admit to being an unrelenting critic of Obama, but not in that thread, where my response simply repeated the words of the Secretary General of the United Nations.
