Former British Minister Entertains Placing Bush and Blair on Trial

... the international court doesn't have any active jurisdiction over members of the US govt(not at the moment and not yet, at least), but at the same time, a trial and conviction in absentia for war crimes committed by Bush and the various neocon henchmen would be a powerful symbolic message to the world both in the present and the future.

Practically, morally and spiritually the goons running our government, going back to at least Clinton and the invasion of Serbia/Bosnia, need to be tried and convicted of war crimes and sentenced appropriately. Our leaders are giving orders for the same things that brought death sentences at Nuremburg...

I just remember Rumsfeld didn't dare to turn up for a conference in Munich last year, because after he had left office he also had lost his diplomatic immunity against criminal prosecution by German authorities. It seems he does take some allegations that are filed here pretty seriously.

I just read some of this Afghan tribunal document. At the end they have the individual judgements of each of the 4 judges--I read the first two. Prof. Niloufer Bhagwat's comments are particularly eye-opening. Interesting...

Thanks for the link. I should have my mother read this. She would probably never speak to me again, though.

Never heard of this, great link. I remember Canada putting the US on the state who sponsor terrorism list. We kicked and screamed and were removed. The lawyers also tried to prosecute Bush for war crimes.

like to sit on that jury. What can we as American citizens do to help the Former British Minister. With all the lies, and corruption that has occured with this administration maybe we need some outside help, but which country, or countries would come to the aid of the American people? Our country is completely in shambles, economy, financially, morally, and physically. We work, and pay our taxes, and what does it get us? It gets us a very greedy, and power driven government that must be stopped, but tell me which country out there would come and give the American people Freedom, and Liberty? My guess is NONE. We must do it, and we will, it will be by spreading the message of Freedom, and Liberty, and educating the average American citizen. Most have lived like mushrooms in the dark. We need to shed some light, and do it everyday, with everyone we meet.
