Welcome to Boston, Mr. Rumsfeld. You Are Under Arrest!

Former Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld has been stripped of legal immunity for
acts of torture against US citizens authorized while he was in office.  
The 7th Circuit made the ruling in the case of two American contractors
who were tortured by the US military in Iraq after uncovering a
smuggling ring within an Iraqi security company.  The company was under
contract to the Department of Defense.   The company was assisting Iraqi
insurgent groups in the "mass acquisition" of American weapons.  The
ruling comes as Rumsfeld begins his book tour with a visit to Boston on
Wednesday, and as new, uncensored photos of Abu Ghraib spark fresh
outrage across Internet.  Awareness is growing that Bush-era crimes went
far beyond mere waterboarding.  >>>

Could the (o)Old Bostonians, also please invite Tory BLiar too, I do say please! Don't worry U.S., we know extraditions don't go both ways, as we are considered inferior; just get that "thing". Stick him somewhere were he can spew his memoirs on a wall. Thank you in advance.

Thanks for this news, Tabarzin. Good one!

P.S. Next swift step: NATO for the murder of tens of thousands of Lybian civilians and let's not forget Afghanistan!

Ge' 'em!

When Rumsfeld along with the matermind Cheney and GWB are put in an orange suite and brought in the front a creditable court to be held accountable for their crimes against humanity.

'Hambastegi' is the main key to victory
