By Patrick O'Connor
His overarching message, and the theme of the book he is co-authoring with his daughter Liz Cheney, is that the U.S. needs to reassert itself on the world stage.

As much as I would love to see Bush figures brought up on war crime charges, this is meaningless and no one from the former Bush admin has been formally convicted of war crimes.

(9,610 posts)It does not have authority to punish those convicted, only to add names to their war criminal registry. It is mostly fluff, but it is better than nothing.

(9,951 posts)He wasn't convicted by any internationally sanctioned body, nor any govt. entity, hence, he's not a convicted war criminal by any stretch of the imagination.
But, maybe some day.........we can only hope.

(9,610 posts)you post the truth. No Government agency has convicted them. We can only hope that the future is better in this regards. War crimes do not have a statute of limitations.
