I am genuinely surprised it hasn't happened before this. The military industrial complex has been rotten to the core for over a decade; until people get court-martialed for firing on weddings, torturing innocents for intel, and blowing up hospitals, not to mention using civilians for real-life shooting games a la WWII, it's going to keep happening. We've been committing war crimes for a long, long time.
Well, that's a story I actually believe. They don't care. And for once—because this is MSF and not some anonymous local hospital—they might get called out for it.
Will the soldiers and their direct chains of command be taken in front of the International Criminal Court directly, or will the UN convene a War Crimes tribunal?
