War criminal? wtf are you talking about? Be specific please.

There have been allegations that he engaged in rogue actions during Gulf War I that involved moving his troops, unauthorized, into a position inside Iraq that was in the path of retreating Iraqi forces (which were mixed up with large groups of fleeing civilians) and then slaughtering them in basically a one-way firefight.

I used the word "probably" because the facts are highly disputed.

Interesting, I hadn't heard about that and will keep my eye out for anything credible on the subject.
