Is Powell a war criminal?
If the answer is "Yes" then answer this next question:
"What about our current president?"
Blogs on the internet accuse the president, of similar act as Powell:
"Obama remains a continuation of Bush. As he announced that “a decade of war is now ending,” his drone war killed three more “suspected militants” in Yemen—another statement that the U.S. has the right to target anyone, anywhere suspected of wanting to attack U.S. nationals or the forces of governments that work with the U.S. are fair targets for annihilation at the president’s discretion."
or......
Obama continues to threaten Iran. He continues to encourage the false perception encouraged by the media that Iran has a nuclear weapons program threatening Israel and the world. Following the joint U.S.-NATO operation to topple Qadafy in Libya (producing an even worse regime), he mulls over intervening in Syria, and already orders his air force to deliver French troops to the battlefields of yet another war-of-choice, this time in Mali."
President Obama was elected by popular support and with the endorsement of Gen. Powell.
****A WORD OF ADVISE: THIS IS A CONTROVERSIAL TOPIC AND I WILL ASK THAT PEOPLE BE RESPECTFUL OF DIFFERING OPINIONS.
***** NO VERBAL FIST FIGHTS, PLEASE.
HAVE YOUR SAY AND LET OTHERS HAVE THEIRS. OKAY?

You a said bit earlier, that “A video of Saddam and Donald Rumsfeld meeting is here to refresh your recollection:”
Have you heard of propaganda. And what diplomats do!
I remember Prime Minister Chamberlain, meeting Hitler and delaying the War and then being called a traitor at home.
He was delaying the War because Marshall Dowding of his Air Force told him England needed more time to build more spitfire fighters.

It is extraordinary to see people who have turned into such sheep that they defend the wolves.
Tragic.

You really do have “real” problems reading.
It is short reply to read.
I did not say it wasn't real.
I repeat - I did not say it wasn't real.
Send me a private email for comments like these.
Lets be friendly not enemies.
And Chamberlain did meet Hitler!
You are trigger happy and you accuse me of being delusional?
You accuse and never allege! That's all you seem to do.
The Biblical lexicon calls this the work of the Devil – The accuser!
Are you in the military and suffering from PTSD.?
I say wait a minute and apologize.
This getting awful!
You sound desperate!
With all my compassion and respect
Don
