Before the first US serviceman died it was a war crime...

[catnhatnh]

...keep that in mind.Before shock and awe and before the planning for the particular targets,men sat and calculated planes and fuel depletion and bomb loads and all of this was coordinated at the orders of a White House that FULL WELL KNEW that the initiating events were every bit as false as the Reichstag fire.These are facts.It has been surmised and in the Libby case it is now being daily proved.Your "president" whom claims to be a "Christian" is in point of fact at very best a fool unable to understand that killing people to gain hegemony over oil is wrong. Sadly at best he is also under international law, written in a large part by the US, culpable for the deaths of thousands and answerable for them....since he claims to know the bible-I ask this-as you sow, also shall you-what???

1. catnhatnh you speak the truth my friend...

It was a war crime and it still is a war crime, I am hoping that the whole * cabal is tried at the Hague for Crimes against Humanity. And of course impeached here.

[catnhatnh]

4. Thanks,

my point was that long before the first bomb left the rack on the first plane in, lines were crossed and the people who directed that contravened the law and must answer...

[Cabcere]

2. Well said...

and much too true. :kick: K&R.

[TahitiNut]

3. Absolutely. It's NOT hyperbole to call it a war crime.

There's no reasonable doubt that they KNEW they were spreading lies, misreporting in the State of the Union (a violation of the Constitution), making a false report to Congress, and manufacturing a casus belli which is a violation of international law.

But it wasn't a blow job so impeachment is off the table. :grr: :grr:

[catnhatnh]

7. I must respectfully say that it doesn't matter...

the mere fact of the lack of a judicial procedure is nearly moot-do you not think the Iraqis will find their Simon Weisenthal? Do you think in the world of the internet there is a place remote enough to hide???

[TahitiNut]

8. And anyone the Iraqi's "bring to quick justice" will be called a martyr.

That's the abominable Catch-22. Unless the People of this nation do it ourselves, legally, we're damned.

5. a war of aggression is the ultimate war crime....

"...to initiate a war of aggression...is not only an international crime; it is the supreme international crime differing only from other war crimes in that it contains within itself the accumulated evil of the whole."

Robert Jackson, U.S. Supreme Court Justice


Lying about the motives is immaterial. The aggression itself is the crime.

[oblivious]

9. "To initiate a war of aggression is the supreme international crime"

[Jcrowley]

6. Yep

Straightforward, simple, factual.

10. Pelosi was mind-boggling to take impeachment off the table...

H-U-G-E mistake!!!!!

[lligrd]

11. So True!

They lied to Americans and invaded a country illegally. There can be no excusing that.

[Solly Mack]

12. Yep.

like how it sounds or not...America IS a war crime nation.
