George Bush Should Be Arrested In Calgary, Canada

Johnny Canuck | 22.02.2009 17:32 | Anti-militarism | Terror War | World

"While legal perils swirl around George W Bush's White House lawyers for their role in empowering torturers, Bush will cross an international border--possibly for the first time--as a free and private citizen." Bush should be arrested for war crimes, in Canada, March 17

"I really hope he shows up in the flight suit. He can also in good conscience, bring along that banner he once courageously blamed on sailors because this time his mission really is accomplished. It's hard being a stranger to those accomplishments--international law and a nation's image disembowelled, untold billions cast to the winds, cronies rewarded and the best be damned. Civilians incinerated by liberty bombs while it's others who are the terrorists.."

Bush will speak to a "private gathering" of 1500 at the Telus Convention Center in Calgary, Alberta, Canada on March 17. During the recent Obama visit to Ottawa, Canada's Peace Alliance did not mobilize for any protests. Let us hope Canada's notoriously weak anti-war movement doesn't also miss this one:

Arrest Bush?

You sir are an idiot. Hating someone is not grounds for arrest. George W. Bush did nothing illegal during his tenure as President of the United States. He violated no domestic laws and certainly no international ones. If you have hard evidence that he did, then please produce it. Opinions don't count. It's a good thing that people like you have no authority whatsoever. The world would be a very different place if you could arrest someone just because you disagree with their policies and politics. Please get over yourself and your self righteous nonsense. George W. Bush is an American hero. He stood his ground for what he believes to be right and withstood a multitude of hateful attacks like yours. Attacks, I might add that are totally unwarranted and without merit. I applaud his courage.

War Criminal

25.02.2009 16:05

George W. Bush has ADMITTED to war crimes. He has admitted violating the Geneva convention by authorizing torture against detainees. They even had sadistic torture re-enactment sessions in the basement of the White House.

 http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/blog/2008/04/10/BL2008041002069.html

Anyone who thinks that a war criminal like B*sh is an "American hero" has no moral compass.

B*sh should be arrested and shipped off to the Internatiional Criminal Court in The Hague.
