Beating a human being, threatening them with death and making them believe that they are about to die will never be minor. Ever.
The fact that the guy that West threatened also appears to be entirely innocent is apparently beside the fact to you. The fact that the guy that West beat was supposed to be our ally also is apparently beside the fact to you. I understand your point about war, but that's not how we are supposedly fighting it. Add in the fact that we invaded a sovereign country under the auspices of lies and we created the damn "enemy" ourselves and you start to understand why I think that Bush was a war criminal. War is hell. And we need to be involved in a lot less of them. None the less, West signed up under a set of rules and he flagrantly disobeyed them. He committed immoral and illegal acts and ought to have gone to jail. He got off easy.
