Especially when their war crimes are numerous and has cost the lives of millions of people? But how come when other countries commit war crimes they do get punished? Doesn't make sense to me!? Why are they allowed to get away with their evils when other peoples cannot!? How are they suppose to their lesson if the world does not teach them!?

Idiot. What war crimes? Got any proof? Note th at creative writing in the guardian or national enquirer is not proof of anything.

DUH Maybe because most nations have committed what you call "war crimes" sometime or other.

Grow up and dump your bias. Just a suggestion.

Some of the worst war crimes perpetrated by the American military were against themselves.


Hopefully, they don't do that to themselves but there are no guarantees. They're closer to it now than they have been since 1860.

Germany is paying cash for the crimes of Hitler.


The UK should be looked to for war crimes increasing after 1815 and the US has an increase after 1913. Both dates in history involve a similar event, the EU banks take control of the National Banks. They become thugs for the Bankers, as such they killed millions of innocents so they can be a few of the wealthy. War crime big time.
