“If we are to have another contest in the near future of our national existence, I predict that the dividing line will not be Mason and Dixon's but between patriotism and intelligence on the one side, and superstition, ambition and ignorance on the other.”

Why do they say this about every president? They did with Bush too. Perhaps they don't know what a war crime really is.
well.. generally people go by precedent
if you look at what people were killed for during the Nuremberg trials, you can understand a little more about why the 'war criminal' word gets passed around, and why bush is regulated to travelling to Alberta
Not that Abu Ghraib was ideal by any stretch (and obviously there could have been more prosecutions coming out of the whole thing), but it was Disneyland compared to what goes on behind the scenes in most major conflicts.

oh. so because the iranians are doing it, you can too?
Dude, enough with the throwaway one-liners.
The point is - as distasteful & inhumane as Abu Graib was - that kind of stuff is unfortunately not out of the ordinary, so all this talk of Charge Bush With War Crimes is just silly. If we could go thru a list of individuals who've been actually charged & convicted of such in the 20th century and look at their deeds, you'd see there's absolutely no comparison.

In the pre-Bush years it was entirely, 100%, completely out of the ordinary. Bush was a cockmunch, just accept it like everyone else has.

Oh yes, Bush was repulsive & left both the USA & the world in a worse place than before he was elected, no arguments there. And as I mentioned, Abu Ghraib was fucked up both morally & legally.
But again it's the silly Bush-is-guilty-of-War-Crimes chorus that's annoying. Look at those that have actually been convincted of them by international courts and you'll see what actually constitutes "war crimes".

it's not a one liner, it's an example of how the argument is reserved for children
and 'as distasteful and inhumane' abu graib was, there is documentated proof those orders came directly from the Secretary of Defense, and these crimes don't stop there
why does everyone blame presidents? they are just puppets....Obama this and Bush that, i'm just sick of hearing this horse shit. the fucking presidents job is to smile, shake hands, sign his name now and then, and maybe make a speech that was written by someone else and approved by the Kochs, the Rockefellers, or the Rothchilds....

I have books about the Nuremberg trials as well as DVDs.
Going to war in itself is not a crime - not in any shape or form. A war crime is intentionally murdering a civilian, or putting them into slave labor camps. The mere act of sending troops into a foreign country is not a war crime.

so the drone program intentionally murders civilians.. justified by 'collateral damage'
Bush cancels Europe trip amid calls for his arrest
Amnesty International and other groups asked Swiss authorities to investigate the former president for torture

It's natural to think that the only thing that needs to exist is an obvious crime, but there also needs to be a willingness to actually bring it.
