"We are in dangerous times....some dark days are ahead."
Indeed we are.
"We are really in for a battle, my friend. The prez is considering George Mitchell as UN ambassador."
WHAT?!?! Are you serious? Where was this reported?
Bush should issue Rummy a full pardon.
They make me sick. The country of Apolph Hitler, they can f^ck off! How dare THEY talk about prison abuse, with the genocide against the Jews on there history.
This program can work both ways.
What does it take to bring charges against Bill, et. al.?
A little taste of their own medicine should serve to stop that line of thinking.
When will they start prosecutions of Mogtada-Al Sadr? At least then they'd have someone in charge of real torture chambers, death, rape, and who knows what else by his band of jihadis!
I believe we don't recognize their juridiction.
Gassing, ovens, systematic genocide, plastic shredders, rape rooms, chopping off of dissidents' hands, airplanes full of people into buildings
= underpants on the head
right.
The Germans are rude. No more military subsidies for them.
Maybe they need a little taste of what happened to the french when they crossed us. No big fan of oreilly but he could start calling for a boycott like he did with the french.
IOW he had to go through what our military puts every new recruit through in boot camp. Poor baby.

Who's Going After Rummy? [Andy McCarthy]
Michael Ratner, that's who. Al Qaeda's chief counsel in the United States. Ratner runs the Center for Constitutional Rights. Read about them here. This is an American yes, an American ultra-Leftist organization begun by Bill Kunstler and Arthur Kinoy which is suing our government in wartime for fighting the enemy.
CCR has gone to Germany to sue the American Secretary of Defense, in wartime, for purported war crimes. That's what we've come to. Don't think this is al Qaeda's law firm in America? Here (quoted by Senator Lindsey Graham in the Senate debate over how to deal with detainees), is Ratner talking (to Mother Jones, of course) about what he's trying to accomplish for the al Qaeda captives in Gitmo:
The litigation is brutal [for the United States]. We have over one hundred lawyers now from big and small firms working to represent these detainees. Every time an attorney goes down there, it makes it that much harder [for the U.S. military] to do what theyre doing. You cant run an interrogation
with attorneys. What are they going to do now that were getting court orders to get more lawyers down there?
This is the enemy. I don't give a s*** that they say they are defending the U.S. Constitution. Their purpose in life is to undermine the Constitution and American national security ... on behalf of the barbarous murderers of thousands of innocent Americans.
A law license is not a treason license.
Good idea but the writing was awful. Looks like they just stringed together random words. I guess some people have a low threshold for humour.
"A lawsuit in Germany will seek a criminal prosecution of the former Defense Secretary and other U.S. officials for their alleged role in abuses"
I guess they think the incidences rank up there in Buchenwald and Aushwitz. Give me a break. Trying to assuage a little left over guilt and become part of the new world order. Have they apologized yet for starting two world wars and tens of million dead? Yeah, they have the legitimacy of calling for trial of Rummy. Puhleeeeeez.
The gutless Germans would be speaking Russian today if it wasn`t for the US. Now, the cowards decide that they can decide who commits crimes, no, they have not earned the right to even open their mouths.
Geez Germany, it might be more effective if you had first indicted OBL, after all, he did plan, finance, was responsible for, and did take credit for the deaths of 3,000 Americans on 9/11.
The Left tastes blood in the water and is going to attack full-force. Bush should tell the Germans to piss off, and pull ALL of our forces from Germany. While we're at it, let's pull all of our forces from Europe as well. Let them slaughter each other next time while we watch from the sidelines and eat popcorn. If anybody hits us, we cut loose with the Boomers. F*ck these bastards.
Before you go ballistic on Germany

Yes, yes, I know, there's a big siren up at Drudge over Time magazine's exclusive on a lawsuit being filed against Don Rumsfeld over "prison abuse."
The German government isn't filing the lawsuit. It's 11 Iraqis and a Saudi who went court-shopping and filed in Germany because the country "provides 'universal jurisdiction' allowing for the prosecution of war crimes and related offenses that take place anywhere in the world." A previous lawsuit was filed on similar grounds and was dismissed. Yes, Germany has its share of weasels. But German Chancellor Angela Merkel isn't one of them and outrage at the country is premature. Calls to close our bases in Germany over this hyped news story are, with all due respect, silly.
The lawsuit hasn't even been filed yet. The Time blurb is a Friday afternoon freebie press release for the left-wing Center for Constitutional Rights--milking Rumsfeld's resignation for all the publicity they can get.
