I'm sure this is actually what it said. I hope we get another round of Satanic panic videotapes out of it. I'd rather avoid another West Memphis Three because Judges would rather believe that Satan killed a child than the creepy step parent that was the last witness of the child and no real alibi for where he was.

In March 2013, Blair's over $96,000 annual salary, and the salary of her two deputy calligraphers, became a source of debate when published by the White House and reported online.[1][2] the GOP shoulda gone after this instead of benghazi

http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/U/US_SUPREME_COURT_NEW_TERMquote:Abortion, birth control and race are among the most divisive issues the Supreme Court will confront over the next nine months, amid a presidential election campaign in which some candidates are talking pointedly about the justices and the prospect of replacing some of them in the next few years. Cool, I guess next year will look alot like the last few years at SCOTUS.

Dead Reckoning posted:The U.S. hasn't finished the investigation yet, but ABC says an anonymous official claims there was an AC-130 in the area, firing on Taliban fighters who were engaged with U.S. Special Forces. If that's the case, immediate self-defense more or less supersedes any protection the hospital would normally receive under LOAC. Several pages back, but this smells like bullshit to me. If Taliban fighters were using the hospital as cover, MSF would have said something about it. Also, they weren't using MSF as cover, because MSF always makes contact with all belligerents, and lets them know who they are, what they are for, and that they don't even want weapons anywhere near them. If one of the belligerents can't deal with that, MSF pulls out. And MSF has been there longer than we have. That hospital attack didn't happen by mistake. AC-130's don't scatter rounds all over the place. It doesn't work unless the flight crew and gunners are on the same page and know exactly what they are shooting at. I don't know what the hell make them think it was OK to shoot at a building with a red crescent on it (MSF operational security requires them to ALWAYS mark their facilities,) but they loving knew better than to to commit a no poo poo war crime.

Teflon Don posted:Heh oh really Nah it died at the district court level, but relevant portion: quote:I hold that a municipal police officer is not a soldier for purposes of the Third Amendment. This squares with the purpose of the Third Amendment because this was not a military intrusion into a private home, and thus the intrusion is more effectively protected by the Fourth Amendment. Because I hold that municipal officers are not soldiers for the purposes of this question, I need not reach the question of whether the occupation at issue in this case constitutes quartering, though I suspect it would not.

You're assuming that if they told the Taliban about the hospital that the Taliban would have been able to tell individual militants about it. The whole point of the Taliban is that they're decentralized. You're also assuming that individual militants would have cared to follow instructions concerning the hospital.

If one of the belligerents can't deal with that, MSF pulls out. And MSF has been there longer than we have. Here are a few possibilities: 1. The military hosed up bad. 2. Some type of force engaged US forces from close enough to the MSF hospital to result in US forces either intentionally or unintentionally attacking the hospital. 3. The US military deliberately flew out and just blew up a bunch of doctors and patients for fun, knowing full well that it would hit international news, for no reason whatsoever and with full knowledge that it was a war crime. If your first pick is option 3, you might also think jet fuel can't melt steel beams.
