Agressive wars are war crimes and to intentionally create a false basis for an aggressive war is an act of high treason. So why is this country letting Bush now come up with another false basis for attacking Iran?

Some one asked " RAMSES " - The greatest Pharaoh ever existed in Egypt - :
Your "holiness",may we ask how did you become what you are now; King of Kings, and the great of the greatest ...etc ??
The Great Pharaoh smiled and replied calmly :
" Simple, because I did not find - so far - any one able to kick my butt yet " !!!!
This old Egyptian joke does apply on our president Mr. Bush,who thinks with the same mentality of the Great "RAMSES" except one difference though,which is the people of Israel are on his side now,and he is not against them.
Therefore,when the time comes that our now - a - days " RAMSES" will stand trial alongside Saddam Hussein, that .... my friend .... will be a day to remember .... !!!!

'aggressive' wars? What the hell is an 'aggressive' war? As opposed to a 'passive' war? If you mean being an aggressor, then that's something else.
But there is no such definition of a war crime, and the truth is that Bush did not lie about the reasons for the attack. Just because the information that the US and allied intelligence services provided was not fully correct does not mean that he lied. Being told that one thing was likely true and basing decisions upon that is not 'lying'.
Now you people are just being 'stuck on stupid' about that. Because if it was a lie, then it was also a lie for Clinton when he ordered a bombing and campaign against Iraq for the same reasons, and you should be clamoring for him to be tried as a war criminal. You would also have rejected Kerry as a candidate because in his Congressional testimony, he confessed himself a war criminal.

I have been saying this for a very long time now. It is starting to wake people up now that the supreme court agrees that Bush has violated US law(over 800 times and counting), the Geneva convention and a few other international agreements the US has entered into.
It is unfortunate that there are still many who confuse Bush with a savior and believe everything he says. They still believe his justification for the war mongering, the bigotry and that he is really protecting the country by taking away our constitutional rights.
When everyone wakes up and impeaches him and demands he stand trial for his war crimes, maybe it won't be too late for some of us.

At the present time, the US Govt. is in full control of the war
scenario in Iraq, in spite of some undesirable civil conflicts
between the Sunni and Shiite Moslems.
Once the US Govt. falls militarily and financially and it is no more
a superpower country, I'm sure Bush will be tried in the
International Court as a war criminal maybe alongside Saddam
Hussein.

It's amazing how many right-wing conservative bible-thumping Republicans are in this part of Yahoo! All you rednecks should quit surfing the Net and get back to your Guns and Ammo magazine.
It's a good question but being British, I can't give a honest answer. As an ally looking in, all I can say is that to stop Bush before his term of office is up, Congress needs to impeach him and guess who controls Congress? Yep! The right-wing conservative bible-thumping Republicans! Plus the Bush administration is doing a damn good job of exploiting 9/11 and making people scared to stand up to Bush and his cronies for fear of being labelled "unpatriotic"
Plus since the US controls Iraq (well, maybe "controls" is too strong a word), Bush has the luxury of putting whoever he wants on trial. Winner's privilege.
A very sad state of affairs.

Bush has us all thinking that if we don't support his decisions we are "unpatriotic." His supporters think the rest of us hate America if we don't root for him. Bush attacks Iran with pretty much no legitimate reason and we fall for it. His friends, the oil execs. who basically call all the shots, are the ones who want to go into Iran. He doesn't really even need a reason or permission to invade because he's the pres. But when we think about it, it's our fault for not having the guts to say this whole thing is wrong. I bet half the people answering this question will call you unpatriotic for questioning his decision. Call me unpatriotic, then, for caring.

If I do recall Saddam was/is guilty of ethnic cleansing, and Iran is creating Nukes. Those are the issues that the President of the United States is trying to resolve.

If the US government should be defeated or overthrown somehow, you can bet your sweet azz that Monkey George is going to be tried and convicted and will replace Hitler as the most recent personification of evil.
