Bush's reaction will be very telling.

I agree with you--if Bush doesn't cover Rummy's back, FReepers haven't seen Bush-bashing yet!

If one looks at the planning, almost all is done with Japan as the target.

Because they knew that the Manhattan Project would not bear fruit until after Germany was defeated.

If BUSH does not come out HARD and STRONG to defend Rummy--

Defend him against what? This joke? C'mon... this has no teeth, means nothing, and doesn't even deserve a response.

Time to get a comprehensive list together of imports and German based corporations in the USA.

A lawsuit in Germany...

I stopped reading right there.

This from the country that let its Jewish citizenry get made into lampshades.

The Germans won't have jurisdiction over any US citizen unless the attorney general allows legal paperwork to move forward to take possession of the guy. For the remaining two years...this will not occur. For the German left...this is all a media game and cheapens law to the point of being a "bartered lady in a red-light district" (I tried to say this in a dignififed manner).

What you may notice over the next twelve months is a direct attempt to have customs and legal officals on Ramstein to monitor aircraft and passengers flying in and out of the port there. This will simply be a first-step.

As for any jurisdiction....the moment that the human rights court opened up via the UN...in Europe...this whole mess went into a different view. These people actually believe that they can bring this earth to a better place...by charging people in court. The amusing thing...is that they won't go after Mr. Kim....nor Castro....nor any leftist dictator out of Venezuela...or even a Russian president who orders the personal execution of a reporter. Nor would they even go after business men who plunder companies throughout Europe and just walk away...leaving bankrupt organizations and bank officals hanging.

This is the mighty fine world we live in....and beats watching a Jerry Lewis movie on a Saturday night.

I'm not a Bush-basher, though I disagree with him on a lot. But giving Rummy to the Germans would be beyond tolerable.

It's not Germany (the country) but the worldwide Socialist movement according to Rush. Our beloved Dem brothers will join them. Thanks to those conservatives who did not vote in this election

"Qahtani underwent a "special interrogation plan," personally approved by Rumsfeld, which the U.S. says produced valuable intelligence. But to obtain it, according to the log of his interrogation and government reports, Qahtani was subjected to forced nudity, sexual humiliation, religious humiliation, prolonged stress positions, sleep deprivation and other controversial interrogation techniques."

The question is, do they have proof?

Oh, the headline didn't mention it was Germany.

No big deal.

Funny how Germany never sought prosecution against Saddam and his henchmen for years of killing and raping. If it wasn't for Bush's tenacity, they would have never been brought to justice! Also, how ironic is it that countless al Qaeda leaders and operatives have been captured or killed in Iraq! Yet, Germany...as did much of the world... claimed there were no terrorist ties and that the war was illegitimate. Socialists are so pathetic and out of touch, it's nearly impossible to reason with them.

I think it's time to redeploy from Germany and bring the troops home. WW2 has been a colossal failure that has made us less safe.

They didn't know that at the time. The planning began in 1943 long before Germany's defeat was assured.

The initial target suggested for the bomb was Truk Lagoon and the Japanese fleet anchored there.

Unfortunately, AQ is emboldened by our elections and will probably strike soon. Those who voted the rats in will live (or not live) to regret it. We are in a real mess right now. I was in the city on 9/11 and for the first time in 5 years I do not feel secure. The President needs to come out and reassure the troops and the country that we will win this fight.

Without tough interrogation, the Library Tower in Los Angeles would have been destroyed. How many lives might have been lost? 10,000? 20,000? Thanks, Rummy. Los Angeles and your nation owes you a great debt of gratitude.

An email I just sent to the German Embassy in Washington...

"If Germany proceeds in its case against Donald Rumsfeld and other top US officials I will have no choice but to cancel a planned vacation to Germany - my third in several years and my purchase of my third BMW.

I can not support this type of hate mongering and US bashing with my dollars. I'm sure many Americans feel the same way. Can Germany's already struggling economy withstand a prolong boycott of all things German?"
