'Terrorism' is simply the response to US terrorism --perpetrated
primarily by the CIA and US surrogates. The 'blowback' is the root
cause of terrorism, the motivation for it, the fuel that keeps it
alive. Fighting a 'war on terrorism' is just plain stupid. Such a
war 'causes' terrorism and I've got the stats prove it.
'Terrorism' is a political term applied to anyone who has a
different point of view. Anyone who opposes the criminal
interventions of the US is --by Bush's decree --a 'terrorist'! If
you merely dissent, you may be defined as a terrorist. The Bush
regime is now claiming that he has the authority under the pretext
of a phony war to define citizens of other nations as terrorists. He
demands of other nations, for example, that they provide his
administration with the records of their citizens whenever Bush may
'deem' them guilty of terrorism.
Be warned! If you are but 'deemed' a terrorist, you are deprived of
the right to be represented by a lawyer, you don't get to make a
phone call, you may not demand a hearing, you are robbed of habeas
corpus --a right England demanded of King John and got! [See: How
America is snooping on YOU ... and may soon be snooping a whole lot
more]
William Pitt, Earl of Chatham, stood up in Parliament during the
American 'revolution', and uttered these brave words knowing that
they would appear in the record, knowing that they would be seen and
read by King George III:
"If I were an American, as I am an Englishman, while a foreign troop
was landed in my country, I never would lay down my arms -- never!
never! never!"
The US military are wimps --hiding behind hi-tech gadgetry and
robots. Even so --the US 'leadership' is outraged when our criminal
methods, oppressions, and various tyrannical methods are met with
armed opposition! How bloody stupid are our leaders! How bloody
incompetent! How incredibly venal! How traitorous and criminal!
Bush has committed capital crimes for which he MUST be arrested,
charged, and tried if there is to be any justice whatsoever in this
world.
I do not merely allege that Bush's polices are counter-productive, I
can prove it with the FBI's own stats! Terrorism is always worse
under GOP regimes.
The illegitimate regime of George W. Bush assumed power upon a
violation of US Codes having to do with 'seditious treason'.
Whoever incites, sets on foot, assists, or engages in any rebellion
or insurrection against the authority of the United States or the
laws thereof, or gives aid or comfort thereto, shall be fined under
this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both; and shall
be incapable of holding any office under the United States.
--TITLE 18 > PART I > CHAPTER 115 > § 2383, Rebellion or
insurrection
Bush's coup was assisted by a Republican gang of 'brownshirts', in
this case 'white shirts' who physically attacked vote recounters in
Florida. The effect of this felonious use of violence stopped the
court ordered recount of votes in Florida until a packed Republican
court could return Bush v Gore. It is not surprising that the High
Court's chief idiot --Antonin Scalia --opined: "..continuing the
recount would be harmful" to George W. Bush. But --last time I
checked --the one getting the fewer number of votes is supposed to
lose the election!
These are some of the thugs who staged a riot at the Miami
canvassing board and shut down the recount. Most of these thugs are
present or past employees of Congressional Republicans. The riot was
led by Rep. John Sweeney of upstate NY. All of these thugs - and
their Congressional bosses, led by Tom DeLay - should be prosecuted
for criminally interfering with a federal election.

--Gore Won Florida!
Having stolen two elections, having flouted the Constitution, Bush
assumed powers that place him above the law. He has done so upon a
series of well-planned, malicious frauds, all of which are cited in
justification for his tyrannical usurpation of every right
guaranteed individuals in the Bill of Rights. It is circular,
delusional logic, symptomatic of psychos!
This unprecedented seizure of absolute power upon lies and frauds
amounts to high treason. It is tyranny! Some of the crimes Bush has
committed subsequent to these various usurpations are punishable by
death!
Bush, an illegitimate 'ruler', has left the sovereign people of the
US no other choice but revolution.
'The tree of Liberty needs to be watered from time to time with the
blood of patriots and tyrants.'
--Thomas Jefferson
I vote for spilling the blood of tyrants! The blood of true patriots
is in short enough supply already! A Federal Grand Jury, perhaps one
already convened, should indict George W. Bush for his MANY
violations of US Codes, Title 18, Section 2441. That's a CAPITAL
CRIME and it's an open shut case against Bush. A fair court upon
proven evidence and the rule of law will sentence George W. Bush to
death!
(a) Offense.— Whoever, whether inside or outside the United States,
commits a war crime, in any of the circumstances described in
subsection (b), shall be fined under this title or imprisoned for
life or any term of years, or both, and if death results to the
victim, shall also be subject to the penalty of death.
--US Codes, TITLE 18 > PART I > CHAPTER 118 > § 2441, War crimes
Bush will, of course, have no defense but the lies he's told
already.
Secondly, Vince Bugliosi has proposed that Bush be charged with MASS
MURDER in connection with the deaths of US servicemen whom Bush sent
to their deaths upon a malicious fraud!
Bugliosi has proposed that Bush be prosecuted for mass murder.
There is direct evidence that President George W. Bush did not
honorably lead this nation, but deliberately misled it into a war he
wanted. Bush and his administration knowingly lied to Congress and
to the American public — lies that have cost the lives of more than
4,000 young American soldiers and close to $1 trillion.
...
On January 31, 2003, Bush met in the Oval Office with British Prime
Minister Tony Blair. In a memo summarizing the meeting discussion,
Blair’s chief foreign policy advisor David Manning wrote that Bush
and Blair expressed their doubts that any chemical, biological, or
nuclear weapons would ever be found in Iraq, and that there was
tension between Bush and Blair over finding some justification for
the war that would be acceptable to other nations. Bush was so
worried about the failure of the UN inspectors to find hard evidence
against Hussein that he talked about three possible ways, Manning
wrote, to “provoke a confrontation” with Hussein. One way, Bush
said, was to fly “U2 reconnaissance aircraft with fighter cover over
Iraq, [falsely] painted in UN colors. If Saddam fired on them, he
would be in breach” of UN resolutions and that would justify war.
Bush was calculating to create a war, not prevent one.
...
When it became clear that the whole purpose of Bush’s prewar
campaign — to get Hussein to disarm — was being (or already had
been) met, Bush and his people came up with a demand they had never
once made before — that Hussein resign and leave Iraq. On March 17,
2003, Bush said in a speech to the nation that, “Saddam Hussein and
his sons must leave Iraq within 48 hours. Their refusal to do so
will result in military conflict.” Military conflict — the lives of
thousands of young Americans on the line — because Bush trumped up a
new line in the sand?
...
The Bush administration put undue pressure on US intelligence
agencies to provide it with conclusions that would help them in
their quest for war. Bush’s former counterterrorism chief, Richard
Clarke, said that on September 12, 2001, one day after 9/11, “The
President in a very intimidating way left us — me and my staff —
with the clear indication that he wanted us to come back with the
word that there was an Iraqi hand behind 9/11.”
Bush said on October 7, 2002, “We know that Iraq and the Al Qaeda
terrorist network share a common enemy — the United States of
America. We know that Iraq and Al Qaeda have had high level contacts
that go back a decade,” and that “Iraq has trained Al Qaeda members
in bomb-making and poisons and deadly gasses.” Of Hussein, he said
on November 1, 2002, “We know he’s got ties with Al Qaeda.”
Even after Bush admitted on September 17, 2003, that he had “no
evidence” that Saddam Hussein was involved with 9/11, he audaciously
continued, in the months and years that followed, to clearly
suggest, without stating it outright, that Hussein was involved in
9/11.
On March 20, 2006, Bush said, “I was very careful never to say that
Saddam Hussein ordered the attack on America.”
--The Prosecution of George W. Bush for Murder
Briefly, the war against Iraq was begun upon a series of deliberate
frauds which Bush perpetrated upon the people of the United States.
Therefore, not only is the war against Iraq a war crime prosecutable
in US Courts for the violations it represents under the above cited
US Codes, Title 18[op cit], but also in US Federal Courts for the
'mass murder' of some 4,000 US armed forces personnel that have died
upon this evil fraud. According to Bugliosi, the penalty is death!
The measure exempting US troops from 'war crimes' was introduced by
Rep. Tom DeLay (R-TX) as an amendment to H.R. 1646, The Foreign
Relations Authorization Act of 2001, on May 8, 2001. It passed the
House 282-137 on May 10 and introduced as S. 857 in the Senate on
May 9 by Senators Jesse Helms (R-NC), Zell Miller (D-GA), Orrin
Hatch (R-UT), John Warner (R-VA), Trent Lott (R-MS), Richard Shelby
(R-AL), and Frank Murkowski (R-AK) --the usual suspects!
The bill authorized Bush "...to use all means (including the
provision of legal assistance) necessary to bring about the release
of covered US persons and covered allied persons held captive by or
on behalf of the Court [International Criminal Court, ICC, in the
Hague]. Some highlights:
* The President is authorized to invade The Hague. Specifically, the
bill empowers Bush to use all means necessary and appropriate to
bring about the release from captivity of US or Allied personnel
detained or imprisoned against their will by or on behalf of the
Court.
* No US governmental entity --including State or local governments
and court of any US jurisdiction --may cooperate with the ICC in
arrests, extraditions, searches and seizures, taking of evidence,
seizure of assets, or similar matters.
* No ICC agent may conduct any investigation in the US.
* No classified national security information can be transferred
directly or indirectly to the ICC or to countries Party to the Rome
Statute.
* These provisions are in addition to existing US law (the 2000-2001
Foreign Relations Authorization Act) which prohibits any US funds
going to the ICC once it has been established unless the Senate has
given its advice and consent to the Rome Treaty.
This measure was introduced before 911 in anticipation of a 'War on
Terrorism' that only those with guilty foreknowledge could have
anticipated, a 'war' that would include US aggression against
Afghanistan and Iraq. Certainly no one but Bush, Dick Cheney, Tom
Delay, the Project for the New American Century and high level
members of the Bush administration could have anticipated the
improbable series of events leading to the American quagmire in
Iraq. Certainly, they are not 'psychic' despite a mantra repeated ad
nauseam post 911: "No one could have foreseen...."! In fact, only
the Bush administration 'foresaw' 911 in such detail, that they
planned in advance to make legal the very laws they have in fact
violated in the post-911 world. What incredible coincidences!
What war crimes were Bush and his junta planning even then that
would require they be immunized from the prosecution of their
intended crimes?
Tortures that were most certainly ordered by Bush and anticipated by
then House Speaker Tom Delay who sponsored legislation to exempt the
'President' from war crimes prosecution. Since that time, Bush
'lawyers' have rewritten US Codes prescribing the death penalty for
specific violations of the Geneva Conventions. Their aim: to make
legal Bush's crimes but only after he had already committed them.
DeLay's intent, however, was to make legal the many crimes that Bush
was already planning. I want to know how to what extent Bush had, in
fact, planned 911, Afghanistan, Iraq even before he sought the
office. These are questions that must be put to him while he is
under oath before a Federal Grand Jury.
When he learned of Bush plans to commit war crimes including
torture, former Atty Gen John Ashcroft said: 'history will not judge
this kindly'. History may conclude that John Ashcroft was, in the
final analysis, complicit with the Bush/Yoo conspiracy to make
'legal' numerous crimes against humanity that Bush had intended to
commit in our name. There was, indeed, precedent but not the kind
sought by Bush. It was Reinhard Heydrich who convened senior Nazi
brass at Wannsee. Their mission: cook up a rationale, some
legalistic mumbo jumbo, that will make mass murder and genocide
legal!
If Bush refuses to respond to an indictment by a Federal Grand Jury,
then Federal Martials should be ordered by the court to simply march
into the White House, serve Bush, arrest the lousy bastard and
charge him with murder!
Then --when the gauntlet has been thrown --we will see just how many
loyal 'Praetorians' will rush to his defense when he seen to have
been indicted by a bona fide Federal Grand Jury who will have, in
fact and in law, the duty to decide whether this lousy liar lives or
whether he dies for the many capital crimes that he has committed!
