That's fine ...

But while we're bandying war crimes charges around, why aren't Bush and Cheney (and the rest of their cabal) there too?

The International Criminal Court's prosecutor is seeking the arrest of Libyan leader Col Muammar Gaddafi and two others for crimes against humanity.

Luis Moreno-Ocampo said Col Gaddafi, his son Seif al-Islam, and intelligence chief Abdullah al-Sanusi bore the greatest responsibility for "widespread and systematic attacks" on civilians.

ICC judges must still decide whether or not to issue warrants for their arrest.

...


It's such a double standard where we champion the International Criminal Court for everybody else but our cruminals. If we tried them here it would be another story but one way or the other, the players in the Bush administration should, in no way, be allowed to walk the streets with impunity.
