Bring 'em to justice, Russian style
On June 3rd, 4 Russian diplomats were abducted near their embassy in Baghdad. On June 26th, the hostages were butchered. Today, Russian President Vladimir Putin issued a fatwa.
BBC News reports, "The head of Russia's security services immediately pledged to see Putin's order carried out." There was no mention of "bringing them to justice."
The Kremlin press service was quoted as saying, "The President gave the order to Russian special services to take all measures for finding and eliminating the criminals who carried out the murder of Russian diplomats in Iraq." (emphasis mine)
Why can't President Bush issue a fatwa to the CIA commanding them to hunt down and eliminate those responsible for the deaths of Americans.
