Elsewhere you said The point of an opinion piece is to lie, cajole, trick, etc people into accepting your opinion or viewpoint.

It seems you may be doing that right now. You're calling Krauthammer a war criminal, which is patently false. He may be wrong-headed, but since he never actually acted in the war, never served as an agent of the government, it's flat-out false to refer to him as a "war criminal".

You can have your own opinion, but you've got to build it on some foundation.

stop acting like "war crime" is some universal objective term that we can all agree to. It isn't.

Ummm. Yes it is well defined. And what you're complaining about isn't in that definition.

On July 1, 2002, the International Criminal Court, a treaty-based court located in The Hague, came into being for the prosecution of war crimes committed on or after that date. ...

War crimes are defined in the statute that established the International Criminal Court, which includes: [followed by a list that formats poorly here, so I'll just leave the link] -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_crime#International_Crimin...

I'm pretty sure there is absolutely an objective definition of what is and is not a war crime.
