A few of observation/speculation: 1. Most American/European (with a few exceptions [1]) only focus on the spending cost of their own countries but less concern about the cost of the nations that the wars involved. i.e. Iraq, Libya, etc. Breaking an exiting stable eco systems have huge impact on local people. In Iraq, 200k - 600k direct or indirect death. It translated to 2 million - 6 million American if we put population into account. In Libya with a chaos satiation waves of illegal immigrants have a chance to go to Europa from the country , which changed the political scenery of many Eurapean countries. Again the cost is not counted into the war. 2.Perception defect of modern human let the war criminals being defined to only those who kill innocent people. For example Hitler is considered to be responsible for deaths of millions so he is a war criminal. This is visible to modern human mind. But most Iraqi deaths were not caused by US bombing but their killing with each other or indirect slow deaths by some other reasons , say sudden disrupt of power in a hospital. Not many modern human being consider US is responsible. I would praised the old Bush stopping the first gulf war to let Saddam survive and avoid unpredictable risk of destroying stable eco system which has worse result that more distributed deaths happen with no visible war criminals 3.(Omitted) Sorry, will be down voted so just to be brief: Assange said "Journalists are war criminals". I didn’t understand the meaning initially. But seeing so many comments here being down voted because they are not aligned with public belief, I realize that how easily the mass population can be fooled. The reason that Journalists can fool public opinion is they really report truth but only when things can be verified. Otherwise they are very likely just selling their beliefs and some time they fabricate stories to support their beliefs.
