I suspect that as America's superpower status fades, and that is inevitable as our economy continues its decline, the security of former officials who are thought by other nations to be war criminals will continue to decline.
There are already a lot of Bush administration officials who probably should NOT visit Europe.
War criminals will not find safe haven in civilized nations, folks.
If the rest of the world in retrspect decides that what Bush II's people did constiuted war crimes?
Well then those people had best keep their asses in America where they'll be safe from the clutches of the rest of the world.
Their safety depends on American continuing to be a superpower.
And that superpower status isn't looking so good right now, is it?
You want to start WWIII this is the way to do it.
You start letting assholes grab americans based on their systems we did not agree too, the USA will have no choice but to retaliate, probaly by seizing all assets of such contries until the Americans are released, and it could quickly escalte to detaining nationals as hostages for those Americans imprisoned.
Thing carefully before you go through this door, i don't care what Bush did or didn't do, no euro-********** is going to try my people in their system, this i would fight for.
