People... these lawsuits weren't about the legality of attacking Iraq in the first place. They were about WAR CRIMES committed in Iraq, and the GENOCIDE of the Iraqi people by the US. You know, the massacres committed by US troops, ordered by the US president. Every bomb that went astray was actually ordered to do so, and was obviously on purpose. Duh! All those tens of thousands of dead Iraqis, oh wait, thousands of dead and wounded, were actually not collateral damage at all! They were part of the genocide of the Iraqi people, which is still to come, apparently.
*That* is what these suits are about. And that is why they are being thrown out, and why the law has been changed.
(Note: no, I disagree with the suits, and do not think there were any war crimes committed at all. If a few soldiers acted too violently, they will be punished by the proper authorities.)
