    You’re right. It’s a different crime. It’s not self-defense in the immediate criminal sense. But Charlie was absolutely guilty of incitement to genocide and crimes against humanity. We’ve literally hanged people at tribunals like Nuremberg for doing the exact same thing that Charlie spent his whole career doing. In just world, Charlie would be indicted on crimes against humanity, convicted, and hanged for his crimes.

      If those crimes had actually taken place you would most likely have my agreement, but right now it is a preemptive strike because some people believe a genocide it is coming and inevitable.
