[QUOTE]Originally posted by First of Two: [QB] Clearly, the relationships between considering, planning, and intent to do are fuzzy. I now believe you are correct in believing that little progress can be made in this area. Right now, I'm looking for parallells between these trials and the trials of Nazi officers at Nuremburg and other places. My hypothesis is that there were at least some incidents where Nazis were, essentially, tried for being Nazis. If this is so, then the same logic may apply here, and would make these actions appropriate. If not... back to the drawing board. However, I'm no expert on WWII judicial history, so I've asked a few folks who should be able to provide data. More on that later. From the article: [QUOTE]The new approach would make it an offense to have been a senior member or officer of a Qaeda unit that was involved in any of the regular crimes of war [/QUOTE]Of course, it will still be necessary to demonstrate that the accused was a senior member or officer, and that their unit was involved in any of the regular crimes of war (Thus the charge of 'no evidence necessary' seems specious) Additionally, the 'new approach' above seems to me to be very much the same rationale behind trying Nazi officers who were "only following orders" in ordering their troops/guards/etc. to committ war crimes. If there's a difference, I'm interested in hearing it. [/QB][/QUOTE]
