Accountability
"No matter how decent they are, no matter their reasons, the 11 million who broke these laws should be held accountable."But the war criminals who illegally invaded Iraq and Afghanistan and are responsible for the deaths of more than a million people and the injuries and displacement of millions more? No accountability. The torturers and those who approved torture? No accountability. The Israeli government which committed wholesale war crimes in the invasion of Gaza, and flagrant international crimes including the murder of a U.S. citizen and eight others in its armed seizure of an unarmed ship in international waters and armed robbery and kidnapping of the passengers? No accountability.
- President Barack Obama, speaking about undocumented a.k.a. "illegal" immigrants
Hypocrisy, thy name is Obama.
