The irony...Germany is charging top U.S officials with war crimes next week. They want Rumsfeld, Gonzales,Tenet,Addington and others. They tried this in 2004 but backed off to allow Rumsfeld to attend a summit in Munich. Things are different now and they're very serious this time especially since Rummy is out now.
German law allows war crimes charges for actions that take place anywhere in the world by anyone.
The star witness for the defense is the commander of Abu Ghraib during the scandal, Brig. General Janis Karpinski. She's some pissed off with Rummy...can't imagine why?
The Bush Administration rejects international criminal courts because they could charge them with crimes. At least they have a sense of humor.
The plaintiffs are 11Iraqis and a Saudi tortured at Abu Ghraib.
Well if you can't do the time...or if you want to live the rest of your days on the Bush ranch in Paraguay listening to the twins whine, then don't assault and insult civilized standards of conduct and act like fascists and Nazis.
Otherwise, welcome to the consequences of criminal behavior.

What happened to the 2nd comment? Blogger's been acting bizarro all morning.
Re Rummy: Hahahahahahaha schadenfreude!!! I'm just basking in it this week! Although I don't think Rummy will actually ever get to court, it's still good that the whole world knows he's being charged with war crimes. By Germany, to boot!
2nd comment was either spam or anonymous trying to solicit some money venture. lol Hope it wasn't 'the anon' Apologies anon.
Indications are this will go forward in Germany. What's great is if they don't attend trial, they'll be unable to travel again without fear of arrest, muahahahaha Excepting of course a one way bug out to Paraguay.
Holy crap it could get crowded at rancho chimpedoro :)
