Are Western Leaders War Criminals?

By       (Page 1 of 2 pages)   5 comments
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.
 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!
Bl ocking 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!

(a) Crimes against Peace:Namely, planning, preparation, initiation or waging of a war of aggression, or a war in violation of international treaties, agreements or assurances, or participation in a common plan or conspiracy for the accomplishment of any of the foregoing:(b) War Crimes:Namely, violations of the laws or customs of war. Such violations include, but not be limited to, murder, ill-treatment or deportation to slave labor or for any other purpose of civilian population of or in occupied territory, murder or ill-treatment of prisoners of war or persons on the seas, killing of hostages, plunder of public or private property, wanton destruction of cities, towns or villages, or devastation not justified by military necessity:(c) Crimes against Humanity:Namely, murder, extermination, enslavement, deportation, and other inhumane acts committed against any civilian population, before or during the war, or persecutions on political, racial or religious grounds in execution of or in connection with any crime within the jurisdiction of the Tribunal, whether or not in violation of the domestic law of the country where perpetrated.

“When will the American people actually vote to give to the world more than bombs and missiles, sweatshops, dubious science, frankenfood, poverty and misery?” - Cynthia McKinney

THE FUTURE LOOKS BRIGHT THOUGH?

One could think the citizen’s money could be more wisely spent at home than on some…poorly staged rendition of Wag the Dog, interpreted for the morbidly stupid and performed by the criminally insane. - Jules Carlysle

"We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light." – Plato

The Military is Nowhere; the Press is Nowhere; the Congress is Nowhere... Is there a limit to the damage this executive branch can inflict to the USA ? Where is everybody indeed ?
 
So until this action takes place…

We have become a monster in the eyes of the whole world – a nation of bullies and bastards who would rather kill than live peacefully. We are not just whores for power and oil, but killer whores with hate and fear in our hearts. We are human scum, and that is how history will judge us… No redeeming social value. Just whores. Get out of our way, or we’ll kill you. – Hunter S. Thompson
