    I'd love to see that happen engineer but in all reality I do not think it will ever happen. Congress has repeatedly failed to do anything but talk and the world court- while having warrants issued- may not have the required authority to bring these as*holes before a judge.

    The people of the United States may want it and clamor for a trial, but the fact is none of the members -well maybe two, or three would - will never vote for impeachment and a trial.

    That leaves only two possibilities. Neither is a good thing. One would require a revolution - hopefully a peaceful one - but very unlikely considering the power wielded by those in control and their reluctance to relinquish that power.

    The second is to just give up which is just as bad as the first, since it would not change anything. I believe that is what is referred to as being between a rock and a hard place.

    We can only hope something good will happen and all this is just a passing folly.

      Remember when some of the Nazi's were brought to the Hague years after the Nuremberg trials by the famous Nazi hunters. They didn't always have the authority either but it didn't stop them did it? One can only hope that the world courts will some day do their job and then leave it up to others if the US fails to cooperate.

        There is one very important difference: the Nazis lost the war, and Germany was pretty well destroyed. The US is still the strongest nation on Earth, so I agree with Ghost; nothing will happen to the perpetrators. Sad, but true.

          "The US is still the strongest nation on Earth, so I agree with Ghost; nothing will happen to the perpetrators."

          --For the moment (and with "strongest" being a relative term), anyway.

            The USA is fading fast...hyper inflation,middle class unemployment increasing rapidly and a unfathomable debt which is out of control. The USA military services are overstretched and this is why they had to use the national guard in Iraq otherwise they would have had to institute the draft which we all know would have been the end of the war. It was an illegal war with the administration being at least complicit in the 9/11 attacks.

              Yep. Inflation worse than Zimbabwe. Food riots in the streets. Agricultural production down 90%. Manufacturing production gone. Natural resources exhausted. Forest destroyed for fire wood.

              And yet unemployment is at 5.1%. In 1996 under Clinton (best president ever) it was 5.6%.

              How long can this go on before the government is overthrown?

                Under Clinton people were happier, despite the unemployment rate.

                  Only you twenty eight- percenter conjobs have the wisdom, keen insight and special secret powers to discern what most of the US and the international community haven't yet grasped--Bush is not only the best President to ever inhabit the White House, he's the purest, most perfect and most infallible immortal to ever grace human kind with his presence. if only others could see what wingjobs see so very clearly, the world would be a much better and wonderful place and oil would flow like liquid gold and rainbows and lil fluffy kittens would appear 24 hours a day. ;-)

            They may escape man's justice, but God's will be much worse! Count on it!

              cushi:

              Amen to that. I'd rather face men for what I did than God.

                I would really like to believe that they will get a jsut punishment in the hereafter, however I don't believe they will and would like to see them get their just rewards here on earthfor their crimes.
