Prosecuting Bush |
10/24/2005 3:30:00 PM GMT |
Last year, and in its battle to have George W. Bush face
criminal charges for torture, Lawyers Against the War (LAW), an international group of jurists based in Canada, laid charges
against the American President, accusing him of aiding, abetting, and counseling the commission of torture
That the Canadian government would try to hush this up
by hiding Bush behind diplomatic immunity was only to be expected. Paul Martin invited Bush here to ingratiate himself with
the President, despite the President’s crimes against our laws and against international law, despite even his inadmissibility
as a war criminal under Canada’s immigration laws – above all, despite the unending human disaster
the President’s illegal ‘war of choice’ has brought to the people of Iraq.”
