Blair must be arrested

category international | anti-war / imperialism | other press author Friday August 06, 2010 13:09author by pat c Report this post to the editors

John Pilgers outlines the reasons why Blair should be arrested and why he should not be allowed to profit from his War Crimes. We need a new Nuremberg. Full text at link.

Tony Blair must be prosecuted, not indulged like Peter Mandelson. Both have produced self-serving memoirs for which they have been paid fortunes; Blair's, which have earned him a £4.6m advance, will appear next month

Now consider the Proceeds of Crime Act. Blair conspired in and executed an unprovoked war of aggression against a defenceless country, of a kind the Nuremberg judges in 1946 described as the "paramount war crime". This has caused, according to scholarly studies, the deaths of more than a million people, a figure that exceeds the Fordham University estimate of deaths in the Rwandan genocide.

In addition, four million Iraqis have been forced to flee their homes and a majority of children have descended into malnutrition and trauma. Cancer rates near the cities of Fallujah, Najaf and Basra (the latter "liberated" by the British) are now higher than those at Hiroshima. "UK forces used about 1.9 metric tonnes of depleted uranium ammunition in the Iraq war in 2003," the Defence Secretary, Liam Fox, told parliament on 22 July. A range of toxic "anti-personnel" weapons, such as cluster bombs, was employed by British and US forces.

and while they are waging their resource wars they deport Iraqi and Afghani people who seek asylum from their destroyed homelands.And shouldn't Bertie&Co be indicted for collaboration through the granting of Shannon for troop, munitions, and special rendition services above and beyond the call of duty?
Methinks the whole fucking piggery will be in orbit before it happens, but I'm all for calling these pricks to account for their spadework.
