Bush’s Anti-Terror Chief: Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld Can Be Tried at the Hague for the War Crimes They Committed In Iraq
Bush’s top counter-terrorism official for his first year as president – Richard Clarke – tells Democracy Now that Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld committed war crimes in Iraq … and that they can be tried at the Hague:
(Clarke retired in protest at the start of the Iraq war.) Clarke is right:
- The Iraq war was launched under false pretenses
- Top Bush administration officials clearly committed war crimes in Iraq
- War crimes generally have no statute of limitations under international law
- Indeed, it is not too late to charge Bush, Cheney or Rumsfeld for war crimes even under American law
And – as odd as it may sound – it’s not too late to impeach Bush, Cheney or Rumsfeld … even though they have are no longer in office.
Of course, Obama is also committing war crimes. For example, the Obama administration has ordered numerous indiscriminate drone strikes … which are war crimes (more here and here). And torture is also apparently continuing under Obama. See this and this.
And Obama should also be impeached.

you know, there is a critical mass of well trained ex military out there. i think .gov knows how dangerous they are since they are listed as potential terrorists by their former employers. i might call them freedom fighters for the right reasons.
It's about time we called a spade a spade. Yes. The unholy trinity of Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld needs to be prosecuted under US and international law for torture and the greatest crime of all - starting a war of aggresion - sacrificing the sons and daughters of the poorest sector of the population. Hilary and the other cooperating members of congress should be totally discredited and barred from future office. As president Bachelet of Chile has pointed out: "We must close old wounds, but first they must be cleansed."
...along with all the powers that run the MIC...Grumman....GD...GE...Haliburton, Brown & Root, and those cockSUCKERS at Carlyle.....plus a whole shitload of others
Thanks to a military which ignores the Constitution and WMDs, these guys get off scott free, meanwhile they try and make Pution look evil when Russia has not done under Putin's watch what Obama, Bush, Clinton et al have accomplished in the name of fighting terror by using terror.
.
To be frank, although I would absolutely love to see these Criminals have their throats sliced from ear to ear watching them drown in their own blood while simultaneously watching them set on fire.
I would prefer to watch them suffer & die in their own Corporate Prisons & FEMA Camps with the general population which will be be than happy to take care of the rest.
My guillotine already knew this.
Just remind me why GW Bush bought a large farm in Paraguay...
Yeah, only 100,000 acres and the cocksucker couldn't pay his bills before he got in office. I suppose they give land away down there huh? I'd pay admission to see that fucker hang. And like someone else so eloquently put it a while back here on ZH, loosen his belt so when he kicks a bit his trousers fall down and the world can see his shitty shorts. Fit humiliation for a bastard with the blood of 100's of thousands on his hands.
And perhaps Richard Clarke himself?
You are the real problem; you are the typical citizen who never reads any thing and doesn't know who anyone is or what part they played. Clarke tried to get messages through to Bush about Alqueda in the USA before 9-11; and he was blocked by Rice. Rice is a very strange creature. Clarke was actually prevented from doing his job; and while you're doing your reading of various books, be sure and find out who and what Rumsfield and his assistant were and their actions; during the Iraqi War, so called.
So are you saying that Bush was kept in the dark and possibly manipulated by his cabinet?
I always thought Clarke was one of the principal players of both 911 and the coverup. Lot's of sorrces have suggested this, though I can't recall all the allegations I have read over the years. That's why I was surprised to see this video.
He was there for just the first year of Bush's first term. The Iraq war started a couple of years later. Why impeach him? He is also the guy who told us that immediately after 9/11 he was told that Bush/Cheney planned to go into 7 Middle East countries including Iraq, Libya, Syria, Lebanon, sorry drawing a blank- but you get the idea. The guy is a stand up guy so no- he is no war criminal- he got out prior to the farce.
I think it was General Wesley Clark you are referring to who told us of the plans to invade 7 countries in 5 years.
He was there from 1992 until 2003. Are you telling me he didn't know what was going on all those years? He was prmoted to top counter-terrorism chief at NSA in 1998. The US allowed OBL and Al Qaeda to thrive for a reason. Clarke was in the middle of it all.
sorry about double post. The above should read why indict Clarke.

You are referring to general Wesley Clarke - Richard Clarke is likely a very bad guy -one of the principal players of 911. Google it.
Please. Disgruntled clerks who "only follow orders" are a menace even when they turn on their war criminal masters. Put another way: A traitor is a traitor even when their treacheries benefit your side.
You're an idiot. you have no idea what you're talking about. Clarke was blocked from doing his job by Condoleeza Rice; he was and is completely innocent.
He's the one who ordered private plans to fly the bin Laden family out of the US while there was a restriction on ALL civilian flights after 9/11.
Clarke was anti-terrorism chief at the NSA all during the 1990's under Clinton. The 9/11 hijackers entered the US in 1998.
He was also in charge during the US embassy bombings in Africa, the Khobar Towers bombing in Saudi Arabia, The USS Cole bombing in Yemen.
Not so innocent after all.
Clarke is a very bad guy from what I have read. A principle player of 911 and the coverup. He may be suffering pangs of conscience and is now telling the truth on Bush war crimes.
Yes, they should be tried for war crimes and treason, but they will collect fat pensions and while away their days on a shady porch sipping mint juleps doing crossword puzzles - never troubled by a flag draped coffin nor their conscience.
. . . surrounded by Secret Service agents: guardians or jailers; or both?
Another distraction/shit show to keep the heat off Barry as much as possible.
Looks like Richard Clarke is short on retirement cash, so he has to flip sides to raise some cash.
Not much else this fossil can do.
And once again we have the real problem; the ignorant citizen. It's because of you that all this is possible. Read books, idiot child; clarke was always on the side of the angels.
He was anti-terrorism chief at the NSA all during the 1990's while the 9/11 hijackers were slipping into the US to take flying lessons with a wink and nod from the US government. condoleeza Rice and Bush were not in office yet at that time.
Oh bright one-
NONE of these people are innocent-nor on the side of any angels any of us would want or hope to be.
This here is a primo example of a MOB beginning to eat there own. somebody somewhere will toss Clarke a wad of cash and he'll shut up-if he's smart.
No blowjobs or accountability to be found, therefore, no impeachment.
Prosecute them all!
Arrest, Tri, Convict, Jail, Execute. In that order.
Not in that order. Let's use Obama's order of doing things on himself and other war criminals: assassinate/kill first, then announce date and manner of death, along with charges of crimes committed, then announce date and manner of burial / cremation.
All with real High definition video and audio capture (as opposed to fake photos in the fake bin Laden murder op).
Of course if there is a way to arrest them first, then by all means do, and then put them in solitary confinement at Guatanamo Concentration Camp for 10-20 years, depending on their age, with daily "enhanced interrogation" procedures (approved by Dick Cheney) until they die of natural causes during interrogation.
In all seriousness, part of the reason that Obama is guilty of war crimes is because he is reversing the order:
(1) Execute first
(2) THEN CONVICT of being a bad guy
also in all seriousness: The Hague does "not apply". the US has not signed any conventions or treaties regarding extradictions to The Hague
further, any permanent member of the UN security council (which the US is) can veto enforcement of cases to the International Court of Justice
(2) ummm, when have we seen any court cases other than executive kangaroo courts?
Glad he is setting the legal precedent.
Lets execute them first, and then try them in absentia.It will make for apeedy
trials.
Great ... let's get a move on. Time is wasting, We don't want them to die of old age before they are executed for their crimes.
Might want to throw a Wolfowitz and a Kissinger in there as well.
The ponzi is being threatened from more and more directions each day now. Expect nasty things to happen more frequently.
he said that he's right , proof enough retards, and obama cant be indicted , hes black
Interesting he says this now, did he have anything to say about the current war-criminal-choomer-in-chief, or just running interference for him?
not interesting at all; what's interesting is that you didn't have time to read anything he's written in the last 10 years. Fool.
Also interesting that you take everything the former NSA spy chief says at face value. You really believe a 20 year NSA employee who made it to the top of the agency is an angel? Those people are weeded out early in their careers.
Time for them to "man up" and turn themselves in to the Hague.
you forgot the :
signed,
John Kerry
I'm with you in spirit, but how do you get the ball rolling when the Attorney General is corrupt and a large percentage in congress are sociopaths?
Easy.
Hang them all.
You Arrest, Tri, Convict, Jail & Execute him as well. That's how.
