Insurgent Groups Accused of War Crimes - by Human Rights Watch!
2005-10-03
The surest sign we are winning. RatsNGO's deserting a sinking ship, and sidling up to the US. Personally, I don't like ratsNGO's. This article found at Mudville Gazette, pointed to by Glenn Reynolds.

#8  Ptah,

Good catch! After all, it isn't as if HRW actually cares about liberal democracy, is it?

#6  I commented on a similar article posted last night.

Actually, if you read very closely, you'll see the reason WHY HRW made this finding: If The Z and other terrorists are caught, WHO WILL JUDGE THEM? Normally, the Iraqui Government would, being the representative of the people, be judging them. By declaring these men guilty of war crimes, THEY WANT TO INTERNATIONALIZE THE TRIALS.

Its another way to deny the legitimacy of the new Iraqui government, by denying it the ability to enforce laws against crimes committed against their own people.

#4  Nah. The kicker is this from the article:

The group also said the disregard for the lives of civilians in the mostly Muslim country was backfiring in terms of popular support for the insurgency elsewhere in the Arab world.
