German Bundestag MP calls for former US President George W. Bush to be imprisoned for war crimes

Former US President George W. Bush must be prosecuted for war crimes committed by US troops in Iraq. This was stated by the deputy of the German Bundestag from the party "Left" Sevim Dagdelen.

According to Dagdelen, who chairs the parliamentary committee on foreign affairs, many crimes have been committed during the US military operations in Iraq. The war in Iraq itself, she said, could also be called a war crime.



The deputy recalled that in one night the US Armed Forces fired more than 300 cruise missiles from ships in the Persian Gulf. More than 2 tons of armor-piercing uranium munitions were used by the American army against the armed forces and population of Iraq. Until now, the consequences of these actions affect the inhabitants of the country, including children.

Dagdelen believes that only bringing the perpetrators to justice will make it possible to restore minimal confidence in the foreign policy of the West in the countries of Asia, Africa, and Latin America. The deputy described the US policy as a manifestation of a "culture of impunity."

The head of the foreign affairs committee of the Bundestag also wondered why the journalist Julian Assange, who revealed the war crimes of the US government in Iraq, is in prison, but none of the high-ranking politicians and military leaders of America was punished for the war crimes committed.

Such a speech by the German MP was an excellent response to the decision of the International Criminal Court, which is not recognized by Russia, which recently issued an “arrest warrant” for Russian President Vladimir Putin and the Commissioner for Children’s Rights in Russia, Maria Lvova-Belova.

      Not relevant. ICC under the control of mattresses.
      Yes, and the agenda will be ignored .. I propose to propose ...:
      By force, bring, by the nostrils, these individuals to the Lefortovo SI, initiate a criminal case and send them to build a road to Magadan

        Here it is interesting that at least one deputy spoke out in the Bundestag against mattress covers, and even said that it was necessary to condemn American President Bush Jr. And this is exactly the statement made on the 20th anniversary of the occupation of Iraq, which began on March 20, 2003.

      Hussein was hanged at the end of the Bush presidency, and with Bush's permission, Blackwater PMC participated in the war. Its employees, openly, committed war crimes. Civilians were shot or crushed to death. (About it now the United States Biden does not even mention).
      The advance of five US divisions from Kuwait resembles a blitzkrieg. The Iraqi capital will fall on April 9, 2011.
      Bush set May 1 as the day of his triumph.
      “We have eliminated an ally of Al-Qaeda and cut off the source of financing for terrorists. And this is absolutely certain: not a single terrorist network will receive weapons of mass destruction from the Iraqi regime, because this regime no longer exists,” the US president assured everyone. He lied to people, both his own and the whole world.
      And you need to be held accountable for what you have done.

      I wonder how? What forces and means? The reality is that the Americans (and the West) can implement the decision of the ICC in many places outside their countries - the problem of Putin's participation at the BRICS summit in South Africa has already arisen, and the possibilities of the Russian tribunal are extremely limited (in fact, neither India nor China).

    It did not become any excellent answer, because it is the decision of the ICC, and the appeal of this deputy will remain an appeal. These are uneven moves.

    Ne pas oublier les second rôles dans la liste de ceux ayant participé à ces crimes, dont une certaine
    Madelaine Allbright qui à répondu à la mort de 500000 enfants Iraqiens par ces mots :
    "Je crois que c'était un choix très difficile, mais le prix... nous pensons que le prix en valait la peine."
    Le prix en vaut toujours la peine lorsque ce sont les autres qui payent...
    "jusqu'au dernier Ukrainien" Biden
    "ce sera douloureux pour l'Europe, mais je suis prêt à ce sacrifice" Biden...

    Don't forget the minor roles in the list of those who participated in these crimes, some of which
    Madeleine Albright, who reacted with these words to the death of 500 Iraqi children:
    "I think it was a very difficult choice, but the price... we think the price was worth it."
    The price is always worth it when others pay...
    "to the last Ukrainian" Biden
    "It will be painful for Europe, but I am ready for this sacrifice" - Biden...

    Stalin come back! The world has completely rotted away. English-speakers squeezed everyone. Mattresses and geyropa small countries zakolbasili, men in Europe go in pairs to the altar. Dollar 80 rub. In Russia, there are already more thieves than dirt. We are at war with the Ukrainians, there is nowhere to pull further.

    Colonialists are being thrown out of the former colonies more and more quickly and decisively. How to "restore trust"?) It would have helped to arrange a comedy in the form of a "trial" of Bush ... 30 years ago. But where to stop in this thirst for justice? If this is justice, then Belgium must be wiped off the face of the earth. And what about the rest? All against the wall too?) No, guys, you realized three centuries later than you should have ...
