Will UK pay for Bush war crimes?
Blair and the UK are facing war crimes charges in light of the civilian deaths in Iraq and the kinds of weapons used by the US and UK. Dubya had the US exempted from any prosecution of war crimes by the International Court, using his clout and usual threats of retaliation to countries not approving of the dictator's demands.

The messsage to the American people, which many are willing to go along with, is that the US has its own set or rules and can break all previous ones. The dem responses last night should have spoken of the breach of International Law involved in the Iraq horror...but as usual, shied away from any strong accusation that Bush is a tyrant and a criminal. Not nice to say those things....

The story about the UK is here (top headline link):
