Erratum
In my last post, I jumped the gun with respect to my criticism of Central Command, who indeed behaved exactly as I considered appropriate.
The story I first read claimed the charges against Mr. Fake Mayor were, "for his inability to support the coalition military authority and for exercising authority which was not his."
Now, Central Command claims he was directly interfering with attempts to maintain law and order and engaging in corrupt practices to rebuild infrastructure after being asked to stop doing so.
Sorry, Central Command, I am such a evil, liberal American.
Formal Judgement: Charges against United States dismissed with prejudice (hear that, you European interlopers). Mr. Al-Zubaidi, you ought to be charged with a high delict or misdemeanor against the laws and customs of war.
