Garzón is also seeking to have the criminal complaint of a Spanish human-rights organization against the Bush Six—six top Bush administration officials—recently reassigned by the chief judge of the Audiencia Nacional to Judge Eloy Velasco, referred back to him for purposes of consolidation with his new preliminary investigation.

Garzón solicited the opinion of prosecutors about whether the case should proceed. After prosecutors attached to the Audiencia Nacional prepared a 37-page memorandum recommending prosecution, however, Spain’s attorney general, Cándido Conde-Pumpido intervened, opposing the case. "If you investigate the crime of abuse of prisoners, the people probed have to be those who were materially responsible," the attorney general stated. He denied that lawyers could be help responsible on the basis of legal advice dispensed.

    This is a nothing article. A foreign government trying to try persons of another country. Nuttiness. Especially since the law in this country regarding torture was not broken.

      I think they should extroadinary rendition Bush and Cheney and put them on trial in another country.

      Nobody here is going to complain if it happens.

        I am thanking God and praising Him that He has planted someone in this world who will seek justice for wrongdoing, no matter on who's part! As a country, we have done MANY wrongs with impunity for a VERY, VERY LONG TIME...but be not deceived, God is not mocked. I believe He has withheld his judgment against the United States for so long because their are many true believers here, and I believe He will continue to show mercy because of those of us who do believe, but He is a just God,and this country has to pay the price for it's transgressions.

        If you go after Bush you have to go after other Dems including Pellosi.
        She was at all the briefings on enhanced interrogations and agreed on all of them.

          Accessories after the fact is a lessor offense than the actual commission of a crime. Will you be satisfied with 20 sentences for Bush, Cheney and Yoo, et al and maybe 2 year sentences for Pelosi and other congress people who knew about it and didn't make their knowledge public?
