This will never be passed by the UN due to America's veto, and they wouldn't be punished even if it did. No-one would be paid, either.

Yeah, it's a lovely notion, but no more enjoyable than a birthday card with no money in it. It gives you a smile for the moment, but it'll be in a landfill soon enough.

If I'm not mistaken, Bush and Cheney are still arrestable in Spain.

Amongst the many things I've become deeply cynical about over the years "Justice" is one of them. Working for the police for a few years shed any remaining doubts I might have had. What I hate is being reminded that there is no such thing. It makes me sad. I would have liked to believe in it. I have to take a deep breath and focus on the positive. ... AFAIK,_ I_ am not a war criminal, and I am all I can hope to influence. I'd like to think that the world is a better place because I am not a war criminal (in my own mind at least). I can't even hope for ultimate Justice, because I am pretty much an atheist.

^ Well at least you haven't gone over to the Dark Side.

Does anyone else see the Irony in that this happened in Malaysia? Not that I completely disagree with the conclusions, but yeah the US has issues, but if you look at international NGO's that rank freedom and human rights, we are much higher than most nations, and higher than any nations who engage in foreign affairs at such a visible level.... Malaysia on the other hand is a well-known hub for human trafficking. Say what you will about how we treat prisoners of war and suspected terrorists - even the innocently accused - we do a much better job of preventing the exploitation and sale of adolescent children as a business venture.
