One way street

 BULLY BOY PRESS &   CEDRIC'S BIG MIX -- THE KOOL AID TABLE

IN 2016, THE F.B.I. SAID THAT THEY HAD NO E-MAILS REGARDING ATTORNEY GENERAL LORETTA LYNCH MEETING WITH FORMER PRESIDENT BILL CLINTON WHILE BILL'S WIFE CRANKY WAS UNDER CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION.

THEY LIED.

SINCE IT'S A CRIME FOR AN AMERICAN CITIZEN TO LIE TO THE F.B.I., WHY ISN'T IT A CRIME FOR THE OTHER WAY AROUND?

FROM THE TCI WIRE:




The Shi'ite militias are now part of the Iraqi forces and there have been many War Crimes committed by the Iraqi forces in the so-called 'liberation' of various areas.  Last week, Amnesty International's UK director addressed the editorial board of THE GUARDIAN:

Ghaith Abdul-Ahad’s extremely disturbing report on Iraqi government soldiers torturing and cold-bloodedly killing captives after this year’s battle for Mosul should be urgently acted on (After the liberation of Mosul, an orgy of killing, 22 November). The authorities in Baghdad should establish an independent, impartial inquiry into all aspects of the conduct of its troops and allied forces – including United States and United Kingdom ones – during this cataclysmically bloody assault.
Deliberately killing fighters who have surrendered or who have been captured is absolutely prohibited under international law. Needless to say, killing civilians in these circumstances is also utterly unlawful – a war crime.
Kate Allen
Director, Amnesty International UK


Those killed and wounded, and the War Crimes themselves, have largely been ignored by the US government -- the same US government that has provided the forces training, equipment and money.

But indiscriminate bombing and collateral damage are also a War Crimes and the US-led coalition has killed thousands of Iraqi civilians.  Yesterday, REUTERS reported:

At least 800 civilians have been killed in strikes in Iraq and Syria by the US-led coalition fighting Islamic State since the campaign began in 2014, according to a report released by the coalition on Thursday.
The estimate in the monthly report, which said coalition strikes had unintentionally killed at least 801 civilians between August 2014 and October 2017, was far lower than figures provided by monitoring groups.
The monitoring group Airwars says a total of at least 5,961 civilians have been killed by coalition air strikes.



Replying to 
The bombing of Syria and Iraq by the U.S. led coalition has been much more intense than news reports might suggest. Here are the figures from Airwars:
