For those who do not know what the Military Extraterritorial Jurisdiction act says it means in short this: Because Bush is commander-in-chief he is responsible for all the crimes committed by his subordinates in Foreign land. In effect, Bush can be tried right here in the US under the Federal Criminal code for the crimes committed in Iraq. I usggest we reactivate the Independent Counsel law, empanela a Federal grand Jury , and send supoenas duces tecum to the Bush White House and give them Use Immunity under Title 18 section 6002, there fore Bush and his Cohorts will have to stand trial in the US for war crimes and other offenses committed in Iraq. The Federal District Court has Jurisdiction to try Bush and Col for all cirmes: Please read the links above. Thanks!

Absolutely, he is the Commander and Chief of the belligerant nations and under international law he and his co-belligerants are entirely responsible for not only providing all living requirements for the people of Iraq and but also for the internal security of said nation. Puppet governments or not.

For the less able out there: A Belligerant nation is a nation that attacks someone else.

GW Bush has constantly breached his legal obligations both nationally and Internationally and if the USA has any shred of moral fibre or goodness in it's people they will demand that Bush and Cheney, Rumsfeldt and company be presented to the International law courts in the Hague to stand trial as War Criminals for their clearly illegal and criminal conduct.

Not sure of what that Doctrine says, but does that also mean that since he is the Commander-in-Chief that he is responsible for all crimes in the US as well?

If so, then I'm going to Sears, put a park bench through the window, walk off with a 52 inch flat screen, watch the Patriots-Colts game, and turn over W once the cops show up.

no actually i think al qaeda, the insurgents and the seemlingly endless grandstanding from nancy pelosi impeding our defense have lots more to do with it.
