I hope the ice is starting to melt under his feet. His family has enough influence to keep him out of jail so far but things seem to be turning. Having angry dying veterans call you out and generals confessing the wars were all planned in advance doesn't help the public opinion in the matter.


(Reuters) - Former U.S. President George W. Bush has cancelled a visit to Switzerland, where he was to address a Jewish charity gala, due to the risk of legal action against him for alleged torture, rights groups said on Saturday.

Bush was to be the keynote speaker at Keren Hayesod's annual dinner on Feb. 12 in Geneva. But pressure has been building on the Swiss government to arrest him and open a criminal investigation if he enters the Alpine country.

Open a criminal investigation AFTER arresting him? Usually you do the investigating BEFORE. Silly. Will never happen and this story is bullshit internet made up rumor.

Well, that's not how things are done anymore. And Chimpy has nobody to blame for that but himself. How many people did he put in prison (or worse) without a trial?

Actually it WOULD be poetic justice if the son of a bitch got himself arrested that way. Unfortunately, I doubt it will ever happen :(

The story is from Reuters. The pressure to arrest him was in Switzerland not in the US so that falls under different laws. Hell with the NDAA here in the states, he could be arrested and held indefinitely. Obama signed that into law. Remember? Bush and Blair were convicted of war crimes in a Malaysian court and torture victims testified at it. When much of the world views you as a war criminal you have problems. Obama won't do anything. What's to say the next president won't? Where is Chimpy going to hide? This will plague him for the rest of his life.

There are Hezbollah Terrorists inside the United States. The Group that runs the 35 Terrorist Training Camps inside the United States are responsible for 58 Terrorist Attacks against the United States. Hezbollah is working with the Los Zeta.


Kissinger is still alive. And don't forget the war criminal Hillbilly.

Bullshit.

More bullshit.

Still more bullshit. However, being a drug cartel, it wouldn't be a surprise at all if LZ was working with the BCE. It's a fact that drug smuggling across the Texas border quadrupled while the Chimp was governor, and it was no coincidence.

Kissinger is BCE, so of course he's a war criminal. Not sure how Clinton meets that qualification though.

TARD, to paraphrase; when you have Ubama's cock in your mouth and you pull it out for a sec and look up into his eyes and ask him: You won't come in my mouth will you? Do you believe it?

Put it this way so your head can wrap around this (heh); You really believe we aren't part of torturing info out of some scumbag at this moment?

HillBilly? Really are you that ideologically FUCKED????????????

Beginning in the early 1990s and continuing to this day, the Central Intelligence Agency, together with other U.S. government agencies, has utilized an intelligence-gathering program involving the transfer of foreign nationals suspected of involvement in terrorism to detention and interrogation in countries where -- in the CIA's view -- federal and international legal safeguards do not apply. Suspects are detained and interrogated either by U.S. personnel at U.S.-run detention facilities outside U.S. sovereign territory or, alternatively, are handed over to the custody of foreign agents for interrogation. In both instances, interrogation methods are employed that do not comport with federal and internationally recognized standards. This program is commonly known as "extraordinary rendition."

The current policy traces its roots to the administration of former President Bill Clinton. Following the attacks of September 11, 2001, however, what had been a limited program expanded dramatically, with some experts estimating that 150 foreign nationals have been victims of rendition in the last few years alone.

'Iran may activate US Hezbollah cells after strike'

WASHINGTON – A congressional report finds that Hezbollah fundraising cells are rampant across the United States and that the Lebanese organization could activate these cells to carry out lethal terrorist attacks.

The report, compiled under the aegis of the US House Committee on Homeland Security, estimates that there are several thousand sympathetic Hezbollah donors in the country, with operatives probably in the hundreds.

Iran doesn't control Hezbollah cells, you dolt! They support Hezbollah and have a mutual interest in hating Israel, but they are not one in the same...
