Probably. First we need a real investigation of the events leading up to the war, including prior plans for war & the 9/11 attacks, which were the events which tipped the balance for the Congress to declare war. Were they & we lied to? Was there a stand down order that day? - which was all but proven by Mineta's testimony before the 9/11 Commission.
There is little doubt war crimes were committed against the prisoners at Guantanamo & elsewhere. The real question that needs to be answered concerns treason against the people & Constitution.

Ask this to the People of Iraq. This war has liberated them from an insane dictator. How quickly the images of Saddam's statue being smashed to the street has been forgotten. Have you forgotten that many of our soldiers that have been captured don't get the privileges of the Geneva convention or visits from the Red Cross or have access to defense attorneys, They get tortured and then beheaded with the film broadcast on the Internet for their family's to see. War is hell and too many of our leaders tried to negotiate with the mad men who's goal is to annihilate ALL who do not believe as they do. Thank God for a leader with the guts to stand up for what he believes in.

No, I do not. If they do decide to charge them, I hope they also charge the Congress. Their job is Presidential oversight. They voted giving Bush the power to go to war. So if it is illegal it is their fault and they should be charged accordingly. They should also be charged with dereliction of duty and surrender all pay and benefits.

from last world war, it has been a tendency of american government to control this world according to their wishes and fulfill their desires and and their evergrowing wants. so they would do anything to destroy anybody coming in their way and use others for their selfish purposes. at the end of the day its all about politics and money

I wish they could be jailed for lying repeatedly.... unfortunately, that isn't illegal. However, they did supply Congress with false information regarding WMDs, and that is illegal.

No, but I think all of those law makers who refuse to enforce our border security and refuse to rework and enforce our immigration laws should be arrested and tried for treason.

No. But they should be roundly criticized and scolded for not having a viable plan.

this is the second stupidest question that is repeated on here. You now have the top 2 stupid questions, guess we should just consider the source.

Could you please tell us what war crimes President Bush allegedly committed?
Or did your parents not mention that part so you can not parrot it?

No.......he may not be the best president we have, but he did get rid of Saddam..........next.
BTW......he needs the backing of congress before going to war, so if you're mad at one, you need to be mad at all.
