We are hearing more these days from Trump’s creatures and from the Archcriminal himself about the mass deportations they intend of illegal aliens. These sociopaths mean business. They can’t wait to start spending the $86 billion that is said to be “the minimum” required for their project, and they mean to employ police, ICEers, the U.S. Army, and, of course, a private army of “contractors” to carry it out.

They haven’t said much about their detailed plans for the mass deportation. Do they know if we have enough cattle cars, box cars, and livestock trailers to transport all these criminals back to …  Yes, back to where?? Anywhere over the border, to Canada or Mexico? To their countries of origin? Do we have concentration camps large enough to house this horde of aliens while they wait to be shipped out?

And do we have much practice in mass deportation? We surely do. We deported the Indians, murdering most of them in the process. We deported the blacks from Africa and made slaves of them. We rounded up the Japanese and “relocated” them to prison camps. Do we, in our time, have enough brutal and thoughtless men who can measure up to the brutality and mindlessness of mass deportations of the past? Just listen to Mr. Homan.

I’ve visited a number of websites that offer explanations and examples of what is a war crime. A common rudimentary list of these is as follows:

murder

extermination

enslavement

deportation

torture

sexual or gender-based violence.

The United States could well be charged with commission of most of these crimes, not in war time, but in what the people in power agreed to call peace. 

The more obvious: 

The U.S. made repeated efforts of exterminate American Indians.

The U.S. encouraged the enslavement of blacks.

The U.S. caused the mass deportation of vulnerable populations, sc., the kidnapping and deportation of Africans as slaves and the deportation of Indians from property coveted by white America.

And now the Trump regime is plotting the mass deportation of a large part of the population of the United States. Of course, these likely deportees are not citizens of the United, but neither were the native inhabitants of America. This mass deportation will not be a response to pretended wartime necessity, but will be an indulgence of the fanatical racism and crippling selfishness of a mob of descendants of onetime immigrants to the United States.
