investigative journalist david swanson believes the sentences handed down to the guards were too lenient. i do think it is outrageous that the 30 year. sentence for having a machine gun is tossed out if you got the machine gun from the us government what's the u.s. government of the rule of law in another country halfway around the world and i think it's outrageous that another law requiring 10 years for having any kind of gun was tossed out on the basis that this was a war wolf what made the war legal think the entire war was blatantly illegal why should it have a go on with the end that illegal war legalized having that gun as part of your crime so i mean these are technicalities but they tell a larger story about what we sanction as a as a culture. on india in that space mission has run into trouble that's very much more after a short break this is aren't international stay with us. the loss of western and gemini that steve globalization and this came in with trump in 2016 that he the idea of monitor ization the global central banks cooperating to put out a currency unit of accounts t

investigative journalist david swanson joins me now david i was coming on to the program to discuss this now what kind of reaction are you expecting to the man sentences being reduced so much. i would expect a negative reaction from some part of the public in the us and positive from others including perhaps the president of the us to whom another man sentenced to life in prison is appealing for a pardon you know personally i think we have far too many people in prisons for far too long and other punishments make sense i would like to see restitution to victims i would like to see environmental cleanup and community service in iraq by these gentleman but those sorts of punishments are not part of the us or the international world justice system i do think it is outrageous that the 30 year. sentence for having a machine gun is tossed out if you got the machine gun from the us government what puts the u.s. government above the rule of law in another country halfway around the world and i think it's outrageous they're not there are laws requiring 10 years for having any kind of gun was toss
