| What exactly do you have in mind John? I will give you a definition of war crimes and you tell me which bit of it you think that the British Parliament has signed up for. "A war crime is an act that constitutes a serious violation of the law of war that gives rise to individual criminal responsibility.[1] Examples of war crimes include intentionally killing civilians or prisoners, torture, wantonly destroying property, taking hostages, perfidy, rape, using child soldiers, pillaging, declaring that no quarter will be given, and using weapons that cause superfluous injury or unnecessary suffering." All of this is of course just in a day's work for Daesh ... |
