'Decider Bush owes explanation of his criminal Iraq War ...in court

When former President George W. Bush was conducting his criminal war of conquest against Iraq, he bragged about how he freed 25 million people. What he wouldn't say is that he wrecked Iraq, killing hundreds of thousands and causing millions of casualties and refugees with his wicked "Shock and Awe". Now, eleven years later Iraq is again descending into sectarian chaos. Over 10,000 were killed last year, the ...most since 2007. Two things that didn't exist in Iraq prior to Bush's March 19, 2003, pre-emptive attack, al-Qaida and suicide bombings have become a way of life. Innumerable babies are exiting their mother's womb with birth defects from the depleted uranium and other poisonous substances Bush used in his eight year vendetta.

Five years after mercifully leaving office, Bush is ensconced in his million dollar Dallas mansion painting pictures of his feet sticking out of his bath water and drumming up donations for his Bush Institute for "advancing timeless principles and practical solutions to the challenges facing our world." Having designated himself the world's first 'Decider' (a nonsense word if there ever was one), Bush is fond of proclaiming, "The interesting thing about being the President is that you don't have to feel like you owe anybody an explanation." If there is one "timeless principle" in governance it's that a leader does not commit war crimes; and if one does he must be brought to justice. Bush can crow all he wants about not having to "owe anybody an explanation" for his criminality. If the American Congress, the media and above all, the American people demand justice for Bush, he may have no choice but to try to explain away his guilt, carrying a long prison sentence, in court.
