Unfortunately, 60 years later, little progress has been made. War propaganda is still legal and very much alive à ?? flourishing, in fact, as demonstrated by periodic calls for one more invasion of a country which has never threatened the U.S.: Iran.
As matters stand today, with the United
States still the world's preeminent military power, the American
propagandists who enabled Operation Iraqi Freedom and other wars of
aggression have little need to worry about their legal responsibilities
under the Nuremberg principles.
A strong case can be made, though, that they have blood on their hands.
