It's more than a dangerous mistake...it's a war crime


Once again the Trib's Steve Chapman trots out his 'mistake' meme to describe the murderous US bombing in the Syria, and other countries in the Middle East. His latest 'Bombing Syria a dangerous mistake' must be his hundredth or more such piece, all lamenting US stupidity in its military actions around the region. Of course, what he writes is true but misses the larger point of US criminality in bombing tens, maybe hundreds of thousands of innocents to bits over the last 17 years since the 911 attacks. Chapman is the house peacenik on the Trib Editorial Board which backs every US war party intervention worldwide. If they didn't they'd lose access to government information, the currency of every media outlet. Chapman's 'US bombing is stupid' pieces represent a bone tossed to sanity in an otherwise insane foreign policy that has pushed the 'Doomsday Clock' to 2 minutes to Midnight, according the the Bulletin of Atomic Scientists, the closest it has been since 1953. We need to see US war criminals in the dock of international justice, not being flunked by Chapman for stupidity.
