Can this be done? It seems like we're (America) not getting a lot of support here.
I agree with you - this is ideal, but I really think, IMVHO, that it is wishful thinking.
"Tracking the perps down, bringing them to court, prosecuting them, that's the way to go"
Apparently we had "him" a few years back and let him go. I'm sure there was already sufficient horror to link him to. Why wasn't he contained then?
"Best of all, we should really work the international coalition angle to put pressure on the governments who harbor these criminals to turn them over themselves, or allow UN forces to go get them without interferance"
The UN isn't really that active in our favor. There's a reason we're considered aggressive. Why wasn't this road taken before?
Of course we've done horrible things as well. But this is all so idealistic. I amquite unaware of what can and cannot be accomplished, but we can look at it historically and piece together why political movements occurred, etc.
Throw us some more thoughts, please Adam! :)
