"International Tribunal Indicts Bush Regime for Crimes Against Humanity
The Crimes of The Bush Regime

The weekend of October 21-23 saw the coming together of an extraordinary tribunal that indicted the Bush regime for crimes against humanity. The First Session of The 2005 International Commission of Inquiry On Crimes Against Humanity Committed by the Bush Administration was held at the Grand Ballroom of the Manhattan Center in New York City.

There were four initial indictments against the regime:

1. Wars of Aggression
2. Torture and Indefinite Detention
3. Destruction of the Global Environment
4. Attacks on Global Public Health and Reproductive Rights

Responding with outrage to the recent events, the Tribunal decided to also hold a hearing into whether there must now be a fifth indictment--around Hurricane Katrina and the crimes that have emerged surrounding this disaster.


The Tribunal presented and adopted an all-sided, comprehensive indictment of the Bush Regime. The weight of the tribunal was indicated by the gravity of the charges, the depth of the evidence, and the authority and prominence of the participants.

The Commission was opened by Marcus Raskin, of the Institute for Policy Studies and The Nation magazine’s editorial board--who drove home the importance of tribunals like this for holding governments accountable before the world. Michael Ratner, president of the Center for Constitutional Rights (CCR), gave a searing picture of the current regime and drove home the importance of transforming a political landscape within which powerful rightwing forces and warmakers have carried out their horrific actions. The third keynote address was a videotaped presentation by historian Howard Zinn, who laid bare how the U.S. has from the beginning forged itself through war crimes and genocide--a legacy that today finds in the Bush regime such a dangerous concentration and continuation."

9. Mere posturing by a group with NO authority beyond themselves.

Not even worth paying attention to. They will achieve as much by sitting in a circle facing inward and masturbating.
