New Calls For Bush War Criminals To Face Justice
By Mick Meaney

A UN investigator has requested that the United States reveal its findings on the CIA's Bush-era programme of the rendition and secret detention of terrorism suspects, which has the potential to lead to high-level officials being prosecuted for crimes against humanity.
A US Senate select committee on intelligence investigated the CIA's secret detention and interrogation programme and examined use of highly controversial torture methods including waterboarding.
The panel is believed to have been given unrestricted access to classified information, and completed its review in December 2011.

The Department of Justice has so far protected Bush era war criminals by refusing to prosecute any official "who acted in good faith and within the scope of legal guidance given by its Office of Legal Counsel", according to US Attorney General Eric Holder.
Where in the hell is my post from yesterday?

What really amazes me is that no matter how many time it's pointed out to them, they still think that a kangaroo world court has jurisdiction and extradition powers over US citizens.
Once again DUmmies, there is no 'one world Government.' The UN make great targets with their nice blue helmets.

The U.N. has no power to go after the DoJ and I really doubt that Pres. Obama would let them into the DoJ's files.

14. The UN has just as much power to go after Cheney and Rumsfeld, as they do to anyone shielding them.
You should have let it go when you had the chance.

...within the "scope of legal guidance"..."given" by "it's" Office of Legal Council? Really? REALLY? OK class, WTF is wrong with THIS picture, what is the difference btwn that regime, and the current, regarding these issues, and what the hell has 5 years of "hope and change" brought Us to, besides being closer to the brink of.......pick one? By all means, prosecute those who ARE guilty, regardless of "party" affiliation, and see the PTB close ranks REGARDLESS of "party". The degree of which We are, have been, and will be hustled is more than most will be able to handle. Anonymous is right, this whole lop of shit needs brought to it's knees, a complete reset of, by, and for the Peoples' will is the only ultimate "solution", I'm afraid, and of course, it will be anything but "civil". Union Yes, CONfederacy, HELL NO!
Never make it to 50.

The media here are going wild about it.
Meanwhile, nary a peep about the warmonger Bush.
Oh. NPR did do a one hour special today about the 10 year anniversary about the invasion of Iraq and all the good work the soldiers did to bring democracy to the land ruled by the dictator the CIA installed to overthrow the democracy that had been there.
That would be a democrat mayor.

Stupid leftists still don't get it.
The UN is a paper tiger with no ability to do anything other than piss and moan from the pulpit without US money and US hardware.
They're limited to being the mouthpiece for the enemies of freedom and democracy and have long since passed the point where they served any useful function.

Look at them armpits.
Those are the pits.

Obama is also guilty of most of the things they want President Bush charged with, so they must want Obama frog marched to the Hague also.

This again? :mental: :bs: That is a slippery slope. The UN is not a nation, just an organization.

Name one American citizen the Bush admin murdered?
I can name two the Obama admin killed with a drone...

Isn't there something here in the DUmp about them hating the UN now because they are against legalization of Marijuana?

DU -searching for distractions since Obama's 'chicken little' impersonation over The Sequester has turned out to be overblown and unnecessary.
So, they are bringing out an old, reliable squirrel to distract everyone with.
