Trump Just Pardoned A War Criminal

[Loki]

Donald Trump has just pardoned a murderer and convicted war criminal.

US President Donald Trump is facing heavy criticism for pardoning a former US soldier, once sentenced to 25 years in prison for murdering an Iraqi prisoner in 2009.

The White House announced on Monday that Trump signed an executive grant of clemency, a full pardon, for Michael Behenna. The 35-year-old was convicted and sentenced to 25 years in prison by a military court for the killing of an Iraqi prisoner suspected of being part of Al-Qaeda.

Behenna was ordered to release an innocent Iraqi man they had no evidence to hold

Behenna instead:
•dragged him under a bridge
•stripped him naked
•tortured him
•shot him dead
•set a grenade under his corpse to burn the body

... Trump pardons him.

It's not so certain that the Iraqi was innocent. Why was he suspected of being a terrorist in the first place? Also, while he was being questioned, he lunged at Behenna who acted in self defense.

Maybe.

The entire US government who were and are complicit in this illegal war (including the sycophant US public-at-large) are the guilty parties to murder. Iraq was no threat to the USA and was not, by all accounts, involved in the 9/11 WTC disaster.

Whether the soldier murdered him or not I really don’t know. It’s easy to believe that he did or COULD HAVE but I’ve no idea if his defense is legit or the accusations are bogus (or the reverse).
