UN claims Trump’s pardons violate international law

Good day all. Years ago there was a Private Military Contractor called Blackwater. Some of their people got involved in a bit of nastiness in Iraq and the Obama Regime, as usual, backed the enemy and not the Americans. This led to the conviction of several Blackwater employees.

Obviously, there is a lot more to that story then the very brief synopsis I just wrote. However, President Trump decided to pardon them after reviewing everything. This set off the usual suspects in the United Nations, who, once again, think they actually are important. Here are the details from Breitbart:

United Nations human rights experts on Wednesday denounced President Donald Trump’s decision to pardon four American men convicted of killing Iraqi civilians while working as contractors in 2007 as a violation of international law.

Paul Slough, Evan Liberty, and Dustin Heard were previously convicted of voluntary and attempted manslaughter, while Nicholas Slatten was convicted for first-degree murder in relation to an incident when they opened fire in a square in the capital Baghdad and killed 14 unarmed civilians.

I recall the incident, however I also recall there were some questions on the “unarmed civilians” as well. Still, I’ll let others discuss the whats and wherefores of that event. The upshot is that President Trump was provided information to make him think that yet another progressive railroad job had taken place, ergo, the pardons. This set off some whiny Eurotrash bitch by the name of Jelena Aparac.

Pardoning the Blackwater contractors is an affront to justice and to the victims of the Nisour Square massacre and their families,” said Jelena Aparac, Chair-Rapporteur of the Working Group on the use of mercenaries.

The Geneva Conventions oblige States to hold war criminals accountable for their crimes, even when they act as private security contractors. These pardons violate U.S. obligations under international law and more broadly undermine humanitarian law and human rights at a global level.

Ensuring accountability for such crimes is fundamental to humanity and to the community of nations. Pardons, amnesties, or any other forms of exculpation for war crimes open doors to future abuses when States contract private military and security companies for inherent state functions.

The Working Group is extremely concerned that by permitting private security contractors to operate with impunity in armed conflicts, States will be encouraged to circumvent their obligations under humanitarian law by increasingly outsourcing core military operations to the private sector,” the U.N. statement added.

Once again, we see some over-educated Eurotrash elitist who thinks her opinion matters at all to Americans. This was one of the reasons President Trump was elected in the first place. American’s are tired of the losers in Eurostan telling us how to do things.

The pardons were met by outrage by some of those close to the case. Both General David Petraeus and Ryan Crocker, respectively commander of U.S. forces and U.S. ambassador in Iraq at the time of the incident, described the move as “hugely damaging, an action that tells the world that Americans abroad can commit the most heinous crimes with impunity.”

First, I seem to recall that General Petraeus managed to not cover himself in glory after he left the service. He was convicted of doing a doing a Comey and providing classified information to his girlfriend. As for Ryan Crocker, he’s just another progressive Globalist One worlder that Der Fubar, Barack Obama surrounded himself with. Neither one of them have any credibility and Crocker is one who will put the U.N. over the United States. (Petraeus screwed up, but I do believe he took his oath seriously) Both of them should remember though, that America and Americans come first. Not the U.N. Not Europe, and certainly not some jumped up twit from France.

Iraq’s foreign ministry also argued that they do “not take into account the seriousness of the crime[s] committed.”

However, the White House has argued that the move has broad public support. “The pardon of these four veterans is broadly supported by the public, including Pete Hegseth, and elected officials,” the statement read.

In other words, President Trump actually looked at everything and made his decision. Since he was under a nonstop coup attempt since before he even took office, and a number of people who worked for him or his campaign were railroaded into prison by the Mueller Inquisition, I’m not at all surprised that he decided pardon’s were warranted.

He has been doing that a lot with other people serving ridiculous prison sentences for not very serious crimes. (We can thank the racist senile pedophile, Dementia Joe, for that with his crime bill back in the 90’s. Lots of Americans of recent African descent were locked up for life, whereas others who aren’t black weren’t for the same crimes) President Trump also had the pleasure of sticking it to the U.N. and the Eurotrash scum one last time.
