90. If he is unwilling to speak out about war crimes now...

how do I know that he will fight against them in office?

Also, I think war crimes are worse than unilateralism in carrying out war, especially at the level they are occurring in Iraq. If Kerry is speaking out about unilateralism - the LESSER evil - what reasons would he have not to speak about war crimes, aside from apathy towards or support for them?

It can't be simple reluctance to criticize Bush - he is perfectly willing to criticize the lesser evil, which, if it was reluctance, he wouldn't raise unless he also raised the greater evil.
