1. Given the choice of believing a potentially biased television program vs. a respected former US Attorney and witnesses including US military personnel entering sworn statements as evidence for an international Tribunal on War Crimes similar to that as held and respected for other war situations like Bosnia etc, I will have to say I would put more faith in the latter.
Well, you opened this can of worms.
Ramsay Clark a respected former US Attorney:
#Was appointed Attorney General by LBJ to get his father to step down from the Supreme Court. LBJ wanted to appoint Thurgood Marshall and needed to get an opening.
# Daddy was a corrupt judge from the start receiving money from New Orleans Godfather Carlos Marcello even after making it to the Supreme Court. Marcello was an associate of D. Ferry, J. Ruby, Lee Harvey Oswald (3 suspects in the Kennedy Assasination).
# Investigated Black groups fighting for their Civil Rights. Gave approval to J EDGAR Hoovers attempts (COINTELPRO) to infiltrate said groups.
#Prosecuted Dr. Spock for advocating draft resistence in 1968.
# Screamed at anti-war protesters harassing LBJ at a campaign rally to stop criticizing Washington and take their protests to Hannoi.
# 1980 joined a forum held in "Tehran" called the "Crimes of America". Yes, while US Citizens were being held hostage he went to celebrate with the people who held them hostage.
#1986 After Lybia was bombed visited and had a cup of coffee with Col. Moammar Qadaffi in Tripoli. Nice way to associate with a terrorist.
#1989 Defended Lyndon LaRouche on the famous mail fraud charges. No comment. Great associate to have.
#1990 Gave Speeches in Copenhagen defending LaRouche. The speech, was published in it's entirety in the New Federalist.
#Represented PLO leaders in a suit brought by the family of Leon Klinghoffer, the elderly vacationer who was shot and thrown overboard from the hijacked Achille Lauro cruise-ship by renegade Palestinian terrorists in 1986. More terrorists.
# Defended Karl Linnas, concentration camp guard who had overseen the muder of 12,000 jews. Nice!!!!!!
# Joined the Workers World Party in 1990 to try and stop US intervention in the Middle East. This is a very UNBIASED Stalinist organization. This organization created the IAC, the organization that Clark now heads.
# Met President Slobodan Milosevic in Belgrade after he was brought up on War Crimes charges. After the meeting Milosevic called his guest "brave, objective, and moral."
# Represented a Rwandan Hutu militiaman fighting his extradition from the US back to Rwanda to face genocide charges.
I guess I will stick with Frontline in the unbiased department.
By the way, I emailed the photographer of the pictures you linked to. Very interesting guy who was nice enough to respond to me. He basically said that the pictures you linked us to, could not support that the US committed War Crimes, nor could they support that these were non-combatants, nor could they prove that the US used weapons of mass destruction. What they do show is the horrors of war.
Doubt I emailed him? He invited people to on the front page of his photo essay. I took him up on it.
Peace
