That's not how this is going to work. The military will eventually stop the killings and then everyone will stop talking about it. That will be the end of it.

Dems, should they ever regain power, will not pursue accountability because the can of worms is systemic - it would do more damage than good. America doesn't like to feel bad about itself - if Dems do that, at all, flibbertigibbet "Independents" will elect Repukes.
