Of course, prosecution in the U.S requires action by the Justice Department, if the U.S ever had the political will to follow its own laws regarding treaty agreements concerning war crimes, and a host of other issues, there would be no need for arrest warrants for Israeli or American officials. There would only be a need for one word from the President. STOP! and that would be enough, in these cases.Progressive Pinheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14464725288335587328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1928401199268387472.post-33752997756858385522009-12-22T23:17:13.498-08:002009-12-22T23:17:13.498-08:00Someone in the US needs to have the balls to charg...Someone in the US needs to have the balls to charge Livni, Barak, Olmert, and all the other Israeli war criminals with war crimes. Heck, someone here needs to charge Dubya with war crimes since the invasion of Iraq (as well as the invasion of Afghanistan) is 100% illegal under the Geneva Convention. The warrant for Livni was a definite step in the right direction.Julia Riber Pitthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03006439247714055292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1928401199268387472.post-14052425554656955682009-12-18T12:56:22.557-08:002009-12-18T12:56:22.557-08:00i like it!! we need more of it.i like it!! we need more of it.johnhttp://www.tshirt-doctor.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1928401199268387472.post-15105101095667013492009-12-15T15:29:48.831-08:002009-12-15T15:29:48.831-08:00This was very embarassing for the Britsh governmen...This was very embarassing for the Britsh government though, I am somewhat concerned that it will cause the U.K to roll back it's universal jurisdiction laws much as Spain has been considering.Progressive Pinheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14464725288335587328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1928401199268387472.post-62069017970996655102009-12-14T21:17:12.180-08:002009-12-14T21:17:12.180-08:00Yes, I was very happy to read about this in Ha'...Yes, I was very happy to read about this in Ha'aretz.
