Guillotine! Oh wait...that's the French. Maybe we should stop hating them for a little while and let them carry out a bit of justice for us. ;)

Germany going after the US for war crimes? wow the irony. As much as I don't agree with Rumsfeld and his policy, they should have no jurisdiction over US officials. How nice of them considering the US sacrificed thousands of lives in order to preserve their sorry excuse for a country. How about going back to building another wall. They can f**k off.

Mutatron..."Nothing will come of it and nothing should come of it. It's war, what do people expect"So when a criminal steals money and denies it by saying that the money gave its self to the criminal we just roll over an accept it?This ignorantly named 'War on Terror' is not a war its a struggle, If it is anything like a war it is a war of words and a struggle for elitism which has caused an insurrection. It is not a Just War which is what people expect.

Give me a frigging break... Seriously is there anything we can do about the people that are so narrow minded and focused only on their warped sense of depravity? Can we at least sterilize them so they can't breed?But seriously comparatively what has happened to prisoners in this war is a frigging picnic... Leave the man alone..Hell no, not the group that is wanting to do the bitching, it is NOT the german gov you dork..

There are reports that Rummy was *personally* involved in some "interviews" (just google it)No evidence about Bush or Blair, hence why filling a suit against him.

I looked, and not one story advocating punishing terrorists ever gets dugg up on liberal digg. Now I read we're going to make "friends" with the terrorists and ask them nicely not to kill us, and Germany, former home of the Third Reich, is going to prosecute Rumsfield for war crimes. Bizarrro!
