The NYT editorial is a bit late in calling for prosecution of the Bush Administration officials for war crimes. There has already been a trial in absentia and convictions with paperwork being filed in the Hague. Dr. Francis Boyle, a professor of international law, explains the verdict here in a stunning interview, and also his plans to go after Obama for the same crimes. This is a bi-partisan interview if ever there was one.
In the meantime, what the filing of the paperwork means is that if any of those convicted travel to any of the 147 signatory countries of the treaty, that country is bound under the international law that they created and signed to apprehend them and bring them before the court. That includes Canada, which refused to do so in the past, and Germany which is preparing to file a case of its own. It seems a German citizen was spirited away to Afghanistan and tortured for several months even after it was known that he was the wrong man.
The wheels of justice turn slowly, but they are turning.
Kuala Lampur ? Convicted by a fake war crimes tribunal made up of 5 Muslims ?
This ranks with Obama's Fake Kenya Birth Certificate.

The Kuala Lumpur War Crimes Tribunal was convened and conducted according to internationally recognized procedures and rules of evidence, and the week-long hearing ended with the five-member panel unanimously delivering guilty verdicts.

If we went back thru history we'd likely have a difficult/impossible task finding any country/civilization with no innocent blood on its hands. What's the terms of the Statute of Limitations that should allow someone to point fingers? Or does everyone get a walk based on "Let he who is without sin, etc." ?

I'm not seeing a link to the NYT editorial and Global Retards is a propaganda site. I won't dignify them by clicking on their link. Might as well link to LEAP 2020 or dumbka.files.
