Bush to the Hague
[link to www.redress.cc]

International Criminal Court complaint filed against Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Tenet, Rice and Gonzales
Request for international arrest warrants
6 February 2010

A leading US professor of law has filed a complaint with the International Criminal Court prosecutor against former US President George W. Bush and a number of his senior lieutenants alleging crimes against humanity for their policy and practice of “extraordinary rendition” and requesting that the ICC prosecutor obtain international arrest warrants against Mr Bush and his co-accused.

Professor Francis A. Boyle of the University of Illinois College of Law in Champaign, USA, has filed a complaint with the prosecutor for the International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague against US citizens George W. Bush, Richard Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, George Tenet, Condoleezza Rice and Alberto Gonzales (the “Accused”) for their criminal policy and practice of “extraordinary rendition” perpetrated upon about 100 human beings.

“Extraordinary rendition” is a euphemism for the enforced disappearance of persons and their consequent torture. This criminal policy and practice by the Accused constitutes crimes against humanity in violation of the Rome Statute establishing the ICC.

The United States is not a party to the Rome Statute. Nevertheless, the Accused have ordered and been responsible for the commission of actions considered as crimes under the ICC statute within the respective territories of many ICC member states, including several in Europe. Consequently, the ICC has jurisdiction to prosecute the Accused for their ICC statutory crimes under Rome Statute Article 12(2)(a) that affords the ICC jurisdiction to prosecute for ICC statutory crimes committed in ICC member states.

The complaint requests:

That the ICC prosecutor open an investigation of the Accused on his own accord under Rome Statute article 15(1); and
That the ICC Prosecutor also formally “submit to the [ICC] Pre-Trial Chamber a request for authorization of an investigation” of the Accused under Rome Statute Article 15(3).
For similar reasons, the highest level officials of the Obama administration risk the filing of a follow-up complaint with the ICC if they do not immediately terminate the Accused’s criminal policy and practice of “extraordinary rendition, which the Obama administration has continued to implement.

The complaint concludes with a request that the ICC prosecutor obtain international arrest warrants for the Accused from the ICC in accordance with Rome Statute articles 58(1)(a), 58(1)(b)(i), 58(1)(b)(ii), and 58(1)(b)(iii).

Please contacting the ICC prosecutor by letter, fax or email – contact details below – to demonstrate your support for this complaint.

NO.

Not that this shouldn't happen, but it never will.

Why have the Bush's run out of money? Seems like Clinton and Bush are panhandling for Haiti, just like they did New Orleans... You know the money never made it to New Orleans either, I wouldn't hold my breath Haiti with those two goons in charge. No accountability, just imagine that they got religion. I doubt it.

Let us hope that the International Criminal Court has more integrity than the US courts. (letting off John Yoo with a warning! ; Free rein for Big Corp in elections! ; still no Habeas Corpus!)

It doesn't look like any of Bushco will be arrested in the USA, under Obama, so charges internationally are justified. The rest of the world is pissed off enough to do it.

I was hoping Bush would be arrested in Canada during one of his speech-making visits in the past year. We (Canada) are signatory to the Statute of Rome and part of the ICC. Would have been perfectly legal, for Crimes Against Humanity. And for being the biggest patsy the world has ever known.
