MEGAN MCARDLE: “Can a Barack Obama administration sit by while this happens? The liberals who think it can have spent far too much time in the Bat Cave telling each other that justice will soon be restored to the universe. Seizing US officials and trying them for war crimes will be perceived by most of the American public as an act of war. An Obama administration that became complicit in this would find itself wistfully hoping that they could, perhaps someday, get their approval ratings up to those enjoyed in the later Dubya years.”

A cynic would take a leaf from the Muslim terrorists: Saw a few heads off on the Internet, and all will be forgiven. It’s not as if these people possess the courage of their convictions when the going gets tough; we’ve seen that demonstrated over and over again.
