David Broder Hates Justice

One question that I had (and I imagine many other did too) when I first learned about the Holocaust is how could people have let it happen?  I think future generations will be asking the same question about war crimes committed by the Bush administration.

David Broder is a good example of people who let it happen.  Glenn Greenwald explores this:

But it's simply not true that these journalists vehemently objected to torture as abhorrent but now merely believe prosecutions are an over-reaction. The reality is that they did not object to the torture regime as it was implemented. They did the opposite: they mocked those who objected to it and who tried to stop it as overheated, hysterical, fringe leftists -- as Broder did in a November, 2004 Op-Ed, deriding as "unhinged" those who were arguing "that 'the forces of darkness' are taking over the country."
