Craig Murray: Narratives of Moral Conflict: Karim Khan and Delcy Rodriguez:

Much informative and interesting historical detail, of varying moral complexity, and the following comments:

[Re: Khan] “It doesn’t matter if you did it, it looks like you could have done it” is an extraordinary measure of guilt. ...This is ... is nonsense of a return to Victorian societal standards and actually a threat to the advances in women’s professional status.

[Re: Rodriguez] Those who have romantic notions of wearing bandanas and brandishing AK-47s in mountains and jungles have for the most part not seen children die in agony.

Declaring ... complexity itself illegitimate, and treating those who acknowledge it as morally suspect, is the opposite of seriousness.
