Laws of Empire

The bushies wants to enforce protection for US soldiers and nationals against conviction for murder, rape or other human rights violations by whatever means necessary. This is exemplified by its negotiation/armtwisting other countries to exempt its citizens from the rule of law.  Yet it is perfectly content to violate the rights of citizens of other nations and seeks to be able to extradite them without presenting any evidence.  Furthermore, those foreign citizens may be held indefinitely without charge or presented to a kangaroo ‘military court’ as and when required.  It sickens me when these vile creatures pay lip service to ‘human rights’ when they engage in human rights abuses across the world. Multi-nationals that abuse human rights will never be prosecuted while such vermin are in charge. My apologies to vermin for the comparison.

...and I thought that the non-extradition “article 98” treaties were just to protect Bush and Cheney and Rumsfeld and Rowe…et al, from being sent to the Hauge from the Carribean, AFTER the up and coming revolt!

Interesting and Important! The Chinese tyrant who persecutes Falun Gong, Jiang Zemin, is also being sued for genocide under this statute. Learn more at:

Hello.  I appreciate this kind of information.  I’m new to In These Times.  I could get my teeth into the issue more to the point of writing a letter to Bush or the mainstream papers if I had more of the administration’s argument, then with your rebuttal information.  I know this is an editorial and not an article.  Just my two cents.
Thanks,
Mike

What bullshit.  Falungong is the victim of “genocide”?!  Typical propaganda coming from the real tyranny on this planet—the American Empire itself.  Americans will accuse everyone and everything in the world of “genocide” even as their bloodthirsty nation is based upon the genocide of Native Americans in the past and the people of the world in the present. 

Secondly, in terms of the Falungong, it would be very interesting to find out what connections this group has to the American government and its spy agencies in particular.
