"Americas must realize that self-scrutiny is not treason. Self-examination is not disloyalty."

Fellow Americans, our duty is to stand for truth and justice. George W. Bush was convicted for war crimes and human rights violations; but we are in complete denial of the truth. We should be ashamed of the crimes committed against the people of Iraq and the thousands of Iraqi and Americans that die because Bush and his administration lie to us. The deception, continue by Obama and the whores that work for our Government that supposed to represent us the American people.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L6-UHWPWNzw

George W. Bush is a war criminal, a sycophant that under the protection of the presidential office commit a number of crimes against foreign nationals and our own American people.

The Bush Administration has consistently opposed to an international court that could hold US military and political leaders to a uniform global standard of justice. The Clinton administration participated actively in negotiations towards the International Criminal Court treaty, seeking Security Council screening of cases. If adopted, this would have enabled the US to veto any dockets it opposed. But the Bush administration, in 2001 as the Court neared implementation, adopted an extremely active opposition and now we know why; to seek impunity for crimes he had plans to commit.

Bush plan to insure impunity on his crimes, in 2001 adopted an extremely active opposition to the International court. Washington began to negotiate bilateral agreements with other countries, insuring immunity of US nationals from prosecution by the Court. As leverage, Washington threatened termination of economic aid, withdrawal of military assistance, and other painful measures to nations that do not support Bush. The Bush administration by refusing to sign and be part of the international court set a precedent of double standards on international criminality. The US is the number 1 advocate of international criminal justice for others, but refuses to subject its own officials to the jurisdiction of the ICC, even going so far to threaten the use of military force in The Hague if the ICC indicts any US citizens; while political leaders, in sovereign African states and South America are subject to international criminal law. Are we special that we can commit crimes against humanity and have complete impunity for these crimes?. I believe that we the average people of this country are not part of this abuse of international law, we believe that the rule of law must be implemented consistently and for people to take it seriously, and not only when it’s convenient for the U.S.

Universal jurisdiction allows states or international organizations to claim criminal jurisdiction over an accused person regardless of where the alleged crime was committed, and regardless of the accused's nationality, country of residence, or any other relation with the prosecuting entity. Crimes prosecuted under universal jurisdiction are considered crimes against all, too serious to be tolerate by jurisdictional arbitrage.

The concept of universal jurisdiction is therefore closely linked to the idea that some international norms are towards the entire world community, as well as the concept of as being fundamental to the maintenance of an international legal order and that certain international laws and obligations are binding on all states of the world community.

The Obama administration is next on line to be prosecuted, and the people of this United States should support our participation in the Court's governing bodies and should provide support for the Court's ongoing prosecutions to criminalized human rights violation and crimes against humanity.

The most serious crimes of concern to the international community as a whole must not go unpunished. The ICC statute says the purpose of the court is to prevent impunity. According to Amnesty International, a proponent of universal jurisdiction, certain crimes pose so serious a threat to the international community as a whole, that states have a logical and moral duty to prosecute an individual responsible for it; no place should be a safe haven for those who have committed genocide,  crimes against humanityextrajudicial executionswar crimestorture and forced disappearances.

The United Nations Security Council Resolution 1674, adopted by the United Nations Security Council on 28 April 2006, "Reaffirmed the provisions of paragraphs 138 and 139 of the 2005 World Summit Outcome Document regarding the responsibility to protect populations from genocidewar crimes, ethnic cleansing and crimes against humanity and commits the Security Council to action to protect civilians in armed conflict.

Obama is safe while in office, but justice will be serve.

Immunity for state officials.

On 14 February 2002 the International Court of Justice in the ICJ Arrest Warrant Case concluded that State officials may have immunity under international law while serving in office. The court stated that immunity was not granted to State officials for their own benefit, but instead to ensure the effective performance of their functions on behalf of their respective States. The court also stated that when abroad, State officials may enjoy immunity from arrest in another State on criminal charges, including charges of war crimes or crimes against humanity.  But the ICJ qualified its conclusions, saying that State officers "may be subject to criminal proceedings before certain international criminal courts, where they have jurisdiction. Examples include the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia, and the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda and the future International Criminal Court."
