Stardate 20011204.1107 (On Screen via long range sensors): Amnesty International seems to be having difficulty recognizing war crimes when it sees them. USS Clueless is ready to help, by pointing out a few real war crimes. (Unfortunately, they may not have been committed by the horrible evil capitalist hegemonic western nations which as we all know are the fount of all that is wicked on earth. Them's the breaks.) So let's begin with 10 wounded al Qaeda soldiers who went to a hospital near Kunduz, asked for treatment, insisted on being kept together, and said that they wanted to talk to a Northern Alliance general or to a foreign correspondent. Their behavior raised suspicions, and they were separated, seized and searched, and were discovered to be carrying bombs.

Deliberately attempting to attack medical facilities and to kill medical personnel and wounded being treated there is a direct violation of the Geneva Convention. Let's see some of that trademarked righteous indignation, OK? (discuss)

They're running this placard on their site: My response: Prevention, not justice.
