EU Wants to Prosecute Bush and the CIA over Torture

Wednesday, April 22, 2009

According to a report posted by Craig Whitlock of the Washington Post Foreign Service

- European prosecutors in Berlin are likely to investigate CIA and Bush administration officials on suspicion of violating an international ban on torture if they are not held legally accountable at home, according to U.N. officials and human rights lawyers.

My question is this: if they think Bush and the CIA are bad, when are they going to hold the U.N.'s own renegade members responsible for the torturous beheadings, beatings, stonings, rapes and other human violations aimed at Christians, Americans, and Jews. When are they going to hold Mahmoud Ahmadinejad or the other thugs accountable. If they are going to prosecute America's past president on a political witch hunt, then they need to likewise go after every one of the world's thugs who are terrorizing this world.

Before they take the speck out of our eye, I suggest they take the log out of their own eyes.

Sadly in other news, President Obama yesterday declined to rule out legal consequences for Bush administration officials who authorized the harsh interrogation techniques applied to "high-value" terrorism suspects, saying the attorney general should determine whether they broke the law. Of course, he did not speak to the other memos that show specifically how beneficial to the safety of this nation the policy actually was. Instead, he gave only a part of the story, enough to condemn America.

There has never been a president of these United States that has done more to embrace totalitarian regimes, to bow to the Saudi King and to sit through the ranting and raging of Hugo Cháve against America.
No wonder, the MSNMB poll showed Obama's F failure grade after 2 million plus people voted online.

Lately, he has been parading around as if he was the high and moral decision maker. Since when can a man who pushed hard for legislation that would force doctors to kill any aborted baby who lived beyond the abortion, who has opened the world to abortion and done everything he can to this nation to pull the constitutional rug out from under us, think of himself, as being moral?

From where I see it, America is in for a very rough four years. If things don't change, if the good people of America don't stand up and demand change, America may very well end up like Argentina in 2001.
