In other news, George W. Bush and Richard B. “Dick” Cheney enjoy their lives as pampered elitists, while others, far down the food chain, pay for their crimes against humanity. Borrowing from the words of Leona Helmsley, only the little people pay.

Agree with what you say about the Bushies at the top of the food chain, but these mercenary assholes are guilty as hell. Glad to see they’re finally getting what’s coming to them. They should have gone after Erik Prince and put that fucker behind bars too. As Pete Hoekstra’s (R-W.MI. Christendom) brother-in-law, he escaped criminal liability because he had connections higher up on that same food chain.

Good. At least it’s some small measure of justice.

Dick DeVos’s BIL, isn’t he? Anyway, just a matter of total accumulated wealth, as I think DeVos’s is right up there.

And their ex-CEO? Still raking it in, I imagine?

OOoops, you’re right. He’s Betsy DeVos’ brother (who was chairperson of the Michigan Republican Party). My bad. He grew up in Holland, MI, in Hoekstra’s district, and kept getting props from him when he represented the district. The two were tight. I remember that.
Isn’t that Clint Howard?
Good - hang their asses!!

Well, this is a start. Hopefully there are many more trials in the pipeline.

Good-mercenaries are NOT above the law!
And hiding out in Yemen!
and THESE are the people that Bill O’Reilly wants to arm, train, and PAY to represent the USA in foreign conflicts in the Middle East.
What could possibly go wrong?
Maybe they should call Bush and Cheney as character witness’s at their sentencing!
