who must Hanged for War Crimes in this world ?..
In principle I am all for the torture of letting the nastiest criminals rot in jail.
However, who's footing the bill? On average, a prisoner costs about Eur 30,000 per year in West European countries. In the USA $35 to 45,000.
In places like North Korea, Cuba, Myanmar, Turkmenistan and Iran the annual cost is roughly $10 per year.
An option is then to export prisoners for life to these cheap countries, but I assume Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch will go berserk.
The other problem with such prisoners is that the risk of idiots kidnapping innocent civilians in order to exchange them for their favorite villains is pretty high.
To get rid of them may still be the best solution, but of course we want them to suffer for a long time and as much as they have had their victims suffer.
What about a one-way ticket to the moon?
