Reply #81: Thanks to both posters for the reply. I don't at all mean to be shy, but

I posted a couple days ago that I thought the Obama administration was a criminal enterprise and my post got deleted. It's all in how you say it. "fostered corporate crime" works for me.

Now, lest this also be deleted, I'd like to ask an honest question. I really would welcome a response from someone:

Re: the pressuring the govt of Spain about prosecuting war crimes...If a friend of mine was indicted and I went to my county prosecutor and tried to twist his arm or otherwise force him to drop the charges, do you think I would be arrested and charged with a crime? Most certainly!

So, whatever functionary went to the Spanish govt. with some sort of missive saying to quash the investigation, on whose say-so was that demand made? Does anyone think it was that Michelle Obama's hairdresser was annoyed? No, it had to come from the highest echelons of the US govt., otherwise the Spanish courts would have consigned it to the round file.

Is that not also a criminal act, then? Perhaps not in international law. But are we not allowed to call out "the peoples" government for a breach of the law? I welcome responses from international law scholars.
