Exporting war crimes, Gengis Kahn's style


Afghan strongman ‘raped, killed and tortured’

Belfast Telegraph, Wednesday, 23 March 2011


The head of Afghanistan's Independent Human Rights Commission has urged Hamid Karzai's government and Nato to investigate allegations that an Afghan strongman employed by United States Army Special Forces embarked on a spate of war crimes, including rape, the summary execution of children, and torture.

“We call on Special Forces — |indeed, any forces — and the Afghan government to conduct an investigation of these allegations and find out if (the allegations are) correct or not,” said Nader Nadery, who heads the Human Rights Commission.

He said the commission would make its own efforts to verify the claims against Commander Azizullah, the leader of a US-sponsored militia in the south-eastern Paktika province, but “it is a core responsibility of the government of Afghanistan to launch an investigation; this is the only way to build confidence in (the country's security) forces.”

A spokesman for Mr Karzai's office said officials had been asked to look into the allegations against Commander Azizullah.

Officials have been similarly reluctant to speak out about three photographs published on Monday showing US soldiers posing with the bodies of Afghan civilians they're alleged to have killed for sport. The images are likely to spark public outrage as they are disseminated across Afghanistan.

With an announcement yesterday by Mr Karzai that Afghan soldiers and police would take control of two provinces and four cities from Nato this summer, there may have been little desire to cloud the moment with calls for war crimes investigations.


Strategy Of Tension 21

From C.O.T.O..:

THE WAR OF AGGRESSION BEING WAGED AGAINST LIBYA IS ILLEGAL BOTH DOMESTICALLY AND BY INTERNATIONAL LAW

The Constitution for the United States of America
[Relevant excerpts of]:
Article I
Section. 8. The Congress shall have Power
To declare War, grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal, and make Rules concerning
Captures on Land and sea…
Article II
Section. 2. The President shall be Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of the
United States, and of the Militia of the several States, when called into the actual
Service of the United States
UN Resolution 1973

[“Odyssey Dawn” childish bullshit kids game names]

Claiming authority under the UN Charter’s Article VII, it, in fact, violates Article 51, stating:

“Nothing in the present Charter shall impair the inherent right of individual or collective self-defense if an armed attack occurs against a Member of the United Nations, until the Security Council has taken measures necessary to maintain international peace and security. Measures taken by Members in the exercise of this right of self-defense shall be immediately reported to the Security Council and shall not in any way affect the authority and responsibility of the Security Council under the present Charter to take at any time such action as it deems necessary in order to maintain or restore international peace and security.”

Hague Convention of 1907, prohibits use of any “poison or poisoned weapons.
DU is radioactive and chemically toxic, thus fitting the definition of poisonous weapons Hague banned. America is a signatory. As a result, DU weapons use for any purpose violates international law.
US CODE, TITLE 50, CHAPTER 40, SECTION 2302 defines a Weapon of Mass Destruction as follows:

“The term ‘weapon of mass destruction’ means any weapon or device that is intended, or has the capability, to cause death or serious bodily injury to a significant number of people through the release, dissemination, or impact of (A) toxic or poisonous chemicals or their precursors,
(B) a disease organism, or
(C) radiation or radioactivity.”

A crime against peace, in international law, refers to “planning, preparation, initiation, or waging of wars of aggression, or a war in violation of international treaties, agreements or assurances, or participation in a common plan or conspiracy for the accomplishment of any of the foregoing”

This definition of crimes against peace was first incorporated into the Nuremberg Principles and later included in the United Nations Charter.

This definition of the crime of aggression belongs to jus cogens, which is supreme in the hierarchy of international law and, therefore, it cannot be modified by, or give way to, any rule of international law but one of the same rank.

The “territorial integrity” rule means that it is a crime of aggression to use armed force with intent permanently to deprive a state of any part or parts of its territory, not excluding territories for the foreign affairs of which it is responsible;

The “political independence” rule means that it is a crime of aggression to use armed force with intent to deprive a state of the entirety of one or more of the prerequisites of statehood, namely: defined territory, permanent population, constitutionally independent government and the means of conducting relations with other States;

The “sovereignty” rule means that it is a crime of aggression to use armed force with intent to overthrow the government of a state or to impede its freedom to act unhindered, as it sees fit, throughout its jurisdiction.

1928, the Kellogg-Briand Pact, known as the General Treaty for the Renunciation of War, said:

The High Contracting Parties solemnly declare in the names of their respective peoples that they condemn recourse to war for the solution of international controversies, and renounce it, as an instrument of national policy in their relations with one another.

The interdiction of aggressive war was confirmed and broadened by the United Nations’ Charter, which states in article 2, paragraph 4 that;
All Members shall refrain in their international relations from the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any state, or in any other manner inconsistent with the Purposes of the United Nations.

The U.S. Army’s Law of Land Warfare (Field Manual 27-10) states:

498. Crimes Under International Law Any person, whether a member of the armed forces or a civilian, who commits an act which constitutes a crime under international law is responsible therefore and liable to punishment.

Such offenses in connection with war comprise:
a. Crimes against peace.
b. Crimes against humanity.
c. War crimes.

To initiate a war of aggression, therefore, is not only an international crime; it is the supreme international crime differing only from other war crimes in that it contains within itself the accumulated evil of the whole.~Robert H. Jackson

“The United States no longer bothers about low intensity conflict. It no longer sees any point in being reticent or even devious……It quite simply doesn’t give a damn about the United Nations, international law or critical dissent, which it regards as impotent and irrelevant.”~Nobel laureate Harold Pinter

Command Responsibility

The trial of Peter von Hagenbach by an ad hoc tribunal of the Holy Roman Empire in 1474, was the first “international” war crimes trial, and also of command responsibility. He was convicted and beheaded for crimes that “he as a knight was deemed to have a duty to prevent”, although he had argued that he was only “following orders”.

Legitimate authority has been abdicated by the US government by it’s brazen abandonment of the Constitution. The Constitution is the only legitimate grant of federal authority, and as it has in effect been made void by noncompliance, the authority is void as well.

The several states, acting in concert with the criminal regime usurping the federal powers, are thus complicit in such unlawfulness. The country is in fact in a state of hierarchical anarchy and unhinged from law.

FOX | PNAC NEWS

U.S. President Barack Obama said Saturday the “Odyssey Dawn” operation launched under a UN Security Council resolution was a “limited military action,” unlike the regime change aims of the war against Iraqi president Saddam Hussein.

He pledged no U.S. troops would be deployed on the ground.

Fox News Chris Wallace asked Kristol Sunday if it was a mistake to limit the mission in Libya.

“Let’s talk about the mission,” Wallace began. “You heard Admiral Mullen, earlier in the show, say his orders are clear: protect the civilians, don’t overthrow Gaddafi. That’s not the point. Is that a mistake? Can we live with Gaddafi in any sort of power? He can create a lot of trouble.”

“No, we cannot leave Gaddafi in power,” Kristol agreed. “And we won’t leave Gaddafi in power.”

“The immediate military mission, Admiral Mullen correctly described but the political goal is to remove Gaddafi and ultimately military assets will serve that political goal.”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This “War on Terror” is 100% absolute, utter theater. The very people making trillions from the wars are now purposefully generating hatred, division and animosity to continue their lucrative genocide and continue their designs of world domination they openly write about.

The danger when confronted with a news story, especially a controversial one, by not asking yourself the important questions, is being forever trapped in a false paradigm.

A cage not of steel, but of your own ignorance.

One within which you may send your son off to die because you fell for absolute utter theater put on by a single organization with soulless scum posing in different masks on opposing sides. Always click “About Us” and never settle on a conclusion until you have all the facts.

Knowledge is power; that is not a cliche that is literally the difference between freedom and slavery, life and death.

PNAC 2.0: Foreign Policy Initiative

Other notable Neo-Conservatives that can be found on the CFR are the members of William Kristol’s reinvented PNAC called the Foreign Policy Initiative.~Tony Cartalucci

William Kristol, a man surrounded by CFR globalist elites, who are funding both the “conservative” and “liberal” agenda at once is already framing this, at the expense of his respect for his reader’s intelligence as a liberal vs. conservative false paradigm.~TC {the Hegelian dialectic in action~ww}

{Kristol is the sublime hypocrite, in his willful delusion he has internalized his academic dialectic to the point of believing his own PR; and thus has become a fanatic. In his deepest mind he is intelligent enough to understand this, but has it submerged by deep psychological whirlpools that are his own demons to deal with.

And so it is with all of those who can reach political power, for the pathology is systemic.

Kristol, as essentially an actor on a stage of manipulated perception, is the perfect shill, or useful idiot for those much higher in the food-chain who are stone cold pragmatists who understand consciously and purposefully that they are conducting theater.~ww}

There is a conspiracy to dominate the planet. It is not one of Christians, not Muslims, not Jews, not even Zionists, but rather godless nihilistic megalomaniacs.

The globalists play each and every angle, whatever will work in a certain geological location, upon a certain cultural paradigm.

The goal of meticulously documenting the CFR connections above to the foundations funding “Imam” Faisal Abdul Rauf, was to illustrate how large the CFR is. It illustrates how interconnected the CFR is with other think tanks and foundations.~Tony Cartalucci

– Tue Mar 22, 5:47 am ET

BEIJING – China called Tuesday for an immediate cease-fire in Libya where the U.S. and European nations have launched punishing airstrikes to enforce a U.N. no-fly zone.

All parties must “immediately cease fire and resolve issues through peaceful means,” Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Jiang Yu said at a regularly scheduled news conference, citing unconfirmed reports that the airstrikes had caused civilian deaths.

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20110322/ap_on_re_as/as_china_libya_3

Russia and Brazil Called for an immediate cease-fire as well.

Yes all these nations with “Glorious Leaders” of their own.

It is not only in NorCom that the Hegelian dialectic is played out in kabuki theater. The same can be said for the wider global theater.

The leadership of all of the modern nations are part of a carefully balanced Left/Right status quo.

What this creates is a natural strategy of tension, that can be played by the rulers of each sides to use the “enemy from without” for their authority—they all become national security states perfectly detailed mirrors of their dialectical-doppelgangers.

This IS the New World Order, and the Money Powers already control it. The point that it has a definite developing agenda—the “Process Strategy”, doesn’t mean that this Order isn’t already here.

It is much closer to fruition now of course.

Just the fact that it is recognized now as a living reality, means that it feels secure in that the key to lock this whole thing up under one world currency, is in their hands and they are turning it.
So the core Orwellian world is already here with it’s perpetual strategy of tension.~ww

The Left is socialist corporatism, and the Right is corporate socialism = both demand an absolute state.

Regardless of style and form all nations are absolute states; either franchises of larger absolute systems, as vassal states, or the larger G7 type states with their panoptic maximum security states. The right and Left are therefore simply ‘forms’ of the absolute state.

That the socialist nations abstained from the ‘No-Fly’ sanctions, and waited for what everyone already knew would happen to THEN step forward and passively complain, is one clue to the way the show is played. The players have all been coached and know their parts.
