The article didnt mention that following the chain the command to perform crimes doesnt prevent from having legal responsibility with Nurnberg process being a very known example.

The history will be not merciful on neither people who initiated this, nor who enabled it or stayed silent while the crimes were performed using there names as a mandate.

It seems a fair number of commanders have been resigning; a question to ask ourselves is: what have I been doing, beyond typing on HN?

I've been doing lots, but I'm not in the USA, thankfully. Everybody is able to do something, something concrete and useful, you just have to figure out what that something is and then go do it. It may cost you though.

What have you been doing? GP is in Switzerland, not in USA. May have finance/miltech connections. You're in Benelux or not an old corpsbal I presume?

What would dang do, within the realm of HN?

(Yes, I believe they are doing something as well)

Sorry, I'm not going to post about that on HN, but it's considerable to the point that it has take up all of my spare time outside of the occasional paid job I still take because the money is too good. That helps finance the other stuff.

Can you post a few ideas for fellow Europeans without disclosing what you’re doing? Are we talking small-scale stuff like "use Linux instead of Microsoft" or bigger, political things? Because as a German, I kinda feel pretty powerless and yet, I do have time and possibly resources that could be spent.

[jacquesm]

Bigger things and very concrete. Mail me?
