It seems that the discussion on the War on Terror is little more than cruft designed to attack Bush. I'm failing to see the relevancy. -- 130.126.138.6 21:28, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

Half the things under the headline of "application in the war on terror" is biased at best, and O.R. at worst. I corrected some basic punctuation and spelling, I don't want to screw with anything else until there is a consensus.
here's what I want to fix:
"The Military Commissions Act of 2006 is seen as an amnesty law for crimes committed in the War on Terror by retroactively rewriting the War Crimes Act[18] and by abolishing habeas corpus, effectively making it impossible for detainees to challenge crimes committed against them.[19]"
I want to fix it by removing it entirely. "The Military Commissions Act of 2006" is it's own page, and how it "is seen" by an unnamed source is highly unimportant and irrelevant.

[Copied over from User talk:Sideshow Bob Roberts]: Could you explain your edit[7] and how the adoption of that Act is not relevant to the ICC? Clearly it is in response to it. Unless you can sufficiently support your assertion it is not relevant I think we should not exclude mentioning it.Nomen NescioGnothi seauton 17:42, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
Some observations:
In short, the US is subtly (not) working on ways to negate the principle of "command responsibility" regarding US citizens. Such information is more than pertinent to this article. Respectfully Nomen NescioGnothi seauton 19:18, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
Command responsibility does not extend to the commander in chief of US military forces. But that is only due to the USA not being party to the ICI, and the American Servicemembers' Protection Act.Royalcourtier (talk) 22:12, 21 February 2014 (UTC)
I've protected the article because there's edit war with no discussions on the talk page. Edit summaries are not the place to argue. Please bring your issues to this page and seek consensus. ·:·Will Beback ·:· 20:16, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
Nescio,
Rama removed the sizes of those images for practical reasons.
Most people don't realize that WP's Preferences allow individuals to set your own thumbnail sizes. Not everyone has the same monitor, browser, and window sizes that you do today. Some people prefer maximizing their windows, and others like smaller, overlapping windows. A large number of them probably won't like the image sizes you chose for this article. You might not even like it after you get your next monitor.
Try changing your browser window size and you'll see that the sizes you chose don't always work best.
While I'm at it, I'll note that you had removed my "fact" tag thinking that it was questioning that it was a response to the ASPA. Actually, I was questioning what source there was to say it "interferes with implementing the command responsibility principle when applicable to US citizens."
As the article says, the principle of command responsibility goes back to long before the ICC. It can be argued that ASPA doesn't interfere with it. Perhaps you've forgotten that not everyone believes that critics of the U.S. care about human rights.
You've also removed the identification of those critics as left-wing, by commenting that this was POV. I disagree. The critics cited are not centrists, and I think it's rather obvious. For some of them, "left-wing" is the kindest thing one can say. It would be wrong (and POV) to allow the casual reader to think these views are held by a broad spectrum.
I haven't switched anything back yet. I'm too busy at the moment to argue this one.

It's difficult to see this link as genuine press coverage when it's only a Wikipedia mirror for the article. Just looking at the link, I can see that that site is mirroring a lot of WP articles.
I didn't think a pseudonymous post from Daily Kos qualified either, since it's a left-wing hate blog and the writer is unknown, but at least it's kind of funny in a quaint way.

The image Image:PICT4336.JPG is used in this article under a claim of fair use, but it does not have an adequate explanation for why it meets the requirements for such images when used here. In particular, for each page the image is used on, it must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Please check

I see no case law, scholarship or evidence that suggest the distribution of tasks is an indicator of effective control to establish Superior/Military Responsibility. I think this is just made up, and see nothing legitimate to points to the "Nikolic Test". Please cite, or delete. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.177.153.18 (talk) 13:18, 11 May 2015 (UTC)
