More: Pro-Enemy Lawyers and the Suit Against the U.S. in Germany

More details on the CROCKY (insert your own word choice) lawsuit filed in Germany by Anti-American (so-called American) lawyers against US Military for Abu Ghraib war crimes.

However, Ratner’s greatest success came last summer when he got the Supreme Court to grant the terrorists held at Guantanamo Bay the right to contest their internment before U.S. courts.
...

The German law code contains a statute regarding crimes against humanity and human rights violations that allows German courts to try the perpetrators no matter where the alleged misdeeds were committed in the world. For this reason, the CCR chose Germany to file its complaint, since this country is required to investigate any such charge under this law.

But there is also a more sinister reason for the CCR’s transparent attempt to undermine America in time of war. The CCR knows that three of the American military personnel named as defendants, Lt. General Ricardo Sanchez, Major General Walter Wodjakoski and Colonel Thomas Pappas are stationed in Germany. Lt. General Sanchez is the commander of U.S. Army Corps V, while Major General Wodjakoski is the Deputy Commander of both the V Corp and of Combined Task Force Seven, whose troops include those in Iraq. The radical lawyers’ organization realizes any investigation of the U.S. Army in Germany would hurt the military’s position there, as these officers would probably be sent home before they would ever be allowed to appear before a German court.
...
If the CCR is such a compassionate human rights organization, it must be asked why it hasn’t filed any complaints in German courts against one of the many mass murderers from Saddam Hussein’s rule, or against torturers and killers living comfortably in many other countries, who have never had to answer for their crimes.

And this group of (dancing around the T-word, here) lawyers calls itself: " Center for Constitutional Rights (CCR), which FrontPage writer John Perazzo has described as a ‘Fifth Column Law factory’ whose lawyers “align themselves with anti-American ideologies and totalitarian sympathies,”

The author of the column at FrontPageMag.com, Stephen Brown, concludes the article with:

" In time of peace this would be despicable and unconscionable; but in time of war the CCR’s actions fall under a far more troubling and morbid label. "

There's my genuine word choice, too. I think timing-wise, we Americans are arriving at a place where that "word" can be used again, and applied fully.

Perhaps a gentler application against the lawyers? Some new-agey "hate crime" legal application. In the leftwing legal world, it all amounts to: I'm filing suit because I *can*.

No, no.. I'll not be rehashing the absurdity of the Abu Ghraib "bizness" here. It happened and is being dealt with. (The left which loves war (but says it hates war) pretends we are not in a war in order to slime the entire military. Ergo, the left is at war with America, no?)

So... the freedom purchased by soldiers with their lives and noble sacrifice for these anti-American lawyers is what is behind the "they can". Shouldn't these lawyers need to be residents of Germany to be able to file this suit using German Law? Is this not simply a lawyer "exercise" in promoting "global governance"? Does this not mean... I can hire a lawyer who knows the laws in other cultures... who will research such countries and their laws, and file my suit against my neighbor (here in the US) to steal his wealth or punish him via "using" another country to do so?

Aha! So! If I get burgled. And I learn who the culprit is... I can hire a hack lawyer to file my suit in the Middle-East. The laws there will demand my American Criminal have his hand cut off. Hmmm... Interesting. Or.. perhaps I could help a pal whose wife is committing adultery here in the US.. and simply have my lawyer file his suit in the Mid-East to have the adulterous wife SENTENCED TO DEATH!

OOoh! Singapore. Caning!! C-A-N-I-N-G. And in public.

Is this not getting interesting, yet?

Yeah, yeah, yeah... This case has everything to do with the "globalist" ICC, Human Rights, blah-de-blah -- than giving two hoots about the prisoners of Abu Ghraib. As a headline on the cover of Cosmopolitan might read: The size of the case doesn't matter -- it's about the motion.
