UN scolds U.S. for detaining children
GUANTANAMO BAY – A United Nations committee has reprimanded the U.S. for trying Omar Khadr for war crimes and detaining hundreds of children in Iraq and Afghanistan, when international law requires that they be rehabilitated.
Khadr, who was 15 when he was shot and captured in Afghanistan in 2002, and Afghan detainee Mohammed Jawad are on trial here for allegedly attacking U.S. troops.
Their trials are believed to be the first war crime prosecution of juveniles, which civil rights groups warn will set a dangerous precedent.

And didn't Dumbya have a retarded guy (may have been a kid, too) executed in Texas? Probably had a couple dozen of them killed...
I say, if it's good enough for the goose, it's more than good enough for the FUCKING ASSHOLE IN THE WHITE HOUSE.
