That pesky Chomsky doesn’t mince words…
"If the Nuremberg laws were applied, then every post-war American president would have been hanged." - Noam Chomsky
Either does Paul Craig Roberts. Craig was Assistant Secretary of the Treasury in the Reagan administration. He was Associate Editor of the Wall Street Journal editorial page and Contributing Editor of National Review.
I'll leave him do the talking...
Why do the American people and “their” representatives in Congress continue to tolerate a criminal Bush Regime that uses lies and propaganda to mask its acts of naked aggression, war crimes under the Nuremberg standard?
Why does the rest of the world continue to receive political representatives from a war criminal government?
REALLY… DEFINE ?
The illegal use of napalm and other chemical weapons
CHECK!
Intentionally torturing and abusing detainees
CHECK!
Blocking aid convoys
CHECK!
Killing unarmed civilians, including shooting into family homes
CHECK!
Western leaders are also guilty of many other violations of the Geneva Convention, the Charter of the United Nations, the Nuremberg Charter, International Law and the Constitution of the United States, including crimes against peace and crimes against humanity.
CHECK!
Be more specific !

Former Bush advisor Karl Rove was invited to speak at a GOP fundraiser in Des Moines, Iowa, but he did not get the warmest of welcomes from four residents who pledged to arrest him.
Law enforcement officers arrested Rev. Chet Guinn, 80, and three members of the Catholic Worker peace movement, Edward Bloomer, 61, Kirk Brown, 25, and Mona Shaw, 57, on Friday for their attempt to make a citizen’s arrest, according to the Cedar Rapids Gazette. They were cited for trespassing and released.
Reuters reported that the arrest was prearranged and happened when the group stepped past a gate. The protesters accused Rove of, among other things, conspiracy to defraud the United States ahead of the Iraq War, leading to the deaths of United States military and Iraqi civilians, the Gazette reported.
Two of the protesters, Brown and Shaw, were previously arrested and released without charges when they tried to arrest Rove in March at the University of Iowa.
A group of netroots activists is also pushing for the prosecution of Rove for his refusal to testify before the House Judiciary Committee in Washington.
Earlier this month, the former White House deputy chief of staff, refused an order to testify about the firing of federal prosecutors and allegations of selective prosecution of Democrats seen as political opponents.
The committee asked Rove to testify about whether he influenced the prosecution of former Alabama Gov. Don Siegelman on corruption charges. While he refused to testify, Rove wrote a letter to ranking committee member Lamar Smith (R-Texas) that he did not try to influence the prosecution in any way.
Committee Chairman John Conyers (D-Mich.) and Rep. Linda Sanchez (D-Calif.) have threatened to hold Rove in contempt. The White House has argued executive privilege allows immunity for Rove from testifying.
The committee has also subpoenaed Attorney General Michael Mukasey to turn over documents relating to the leak of CIA agent Valerie Plame’s identity, including complete FBI interview reports with Rove and others.Former Bush advisor Karl Rove was invited to speak at a GOP fundraiser in Des Moines,... more

"If they hadn't shot down the fourth plane it would've hit the dome," Stone, a Navy officer, said in his opening remarks.
The tribunal's chief prosecutor, Col. Lawrence Morris, later explained that Stone was quoting Hamdan in evidence that will be presented at trial. Morris declined to say if the "dome" was a reference to the U.S. Capitol.
"Virtually no one knew the intended target, but the accused knew," Stone said.
United Airlines Flight 93 crashed in a field in rural Pennsylvania. U.S. officials have never stated it was shot down although rumors saying that abound to this day.
I thought this was an interesting little tidbit as the official story is that it "crashed".
Yet another discripancy in the slew of open-ended unanswered 9-11 questions."If they hadn't shot down the fourth plane it would've hit the... more

We call on the the House Judiciary Committee to cite Rove with contempt for failing to comply with a Congressional subpoena. Since Rove regards the law with such contempt, it's high time the law and Congress hold him in contempt as well. We demand the HJC let Rove know he can't decide which subpoenas he obeys and which he ignores.
