I am reminded of the notation by one Colonel House (Huis), godfather of the Federal Reserve and Coolidge's "alter" during the time of Versailles and the League et al, that war crimes are to be investigated only by the military of the country of commission.

War criminals protected yet those who expose war crimes are prosecuted and persecuted. What sort of country is this?
"The philosophers have only interpreted the world, in various ways. The point, however, is to change it." Karl Marx

"He would, wouldn't he?" Mandy Rice-Davies. When asked in court whether she knew that Lord Astor had denied having sex with her.

“I think it would be a good idea” Ghandi, when asked about Western Civilisation.
