Proposal: Reward for "Information leading to the Arrest and Conviction of George W Bush and Others"

Benjamin Franklin said “The only two things in life that are certain are death and taxes.” There is a third certainty for the American people that is sure as the sun rising or any law of nature. In the future any day that the war and occupation of Iraq continues you can say with certainty “It only gets worse from here.” There is no getting around the basic fact. The Iraq War was plotted and hatched with lies and deceptions, so it is evil in nature. As long as Americans go along with the war they are accepting evil and that evil will consume their future and everything that is good and decent in life.

Nuremberg Principles Articles VI and VII make it a Crime Against Peace and a Crime Against Humanity to conspire to engage in wage or be complicit in the waging of a war of aggression. Bush smooth talked, persuaded, cajoled, browbeat, lied and bribed to get his war. Bush talks like the Father of Lies, smooth words and false promises roll from his lips. But his false words have lead to the violent deaths of tens of thousands of innocent women and children and horrible daily scenes of carnage and maiming of human bodies. To go along with Bush is to be complicit with evil. People have to face up to this fact and stand against him or their future will be swallowed by the fruits of his evil, bloodshed, increasing chaos and misery and loss of freedom.

Bush says it is us against them. It is really about Bush and his war plotters against the people of the world. Bush professes to faith but blatantly violates the commandments “Thou Shalt Not Kill” and “Thou Shalt Not Bear False Witness Against Thy Neighbor.” His false witness against Iraq with deceptions and fabrications about Weapons of Mass Destruction and linking Iraq to 9/11 are the ultimate violations of that commandment.

If the American people go along ignoring or accepting his lies their future will be a predictable disaster. Bush and his cabal of war plotters have been on a one way street since the moment they crossed the line and launched a War of Aggression. Held to the standards of the Nuremberg Trials they should be hung for the crime of Aggression. The international Commission for Justice in Iraq, a panel of jurists and Noble Prize Laureates held hearings and concluded that Bush and Blair should be indicted for War Crimes.

What the world needs now is for concerned people of the world to make that happen. I propose that anti war organizations solicit their members and the public to raise many millions of dollars to be paid as a reward for “Information leading to the Arrest and Conviction of George W Bush and others by the International War Crimes Tribunal for the crimes of Conspiring to Engage In and the Waging of a War of Aggression.” Just think that if everyone in the world who is opposed to this war sends in one dollar, the reward would be in the billions of dollars. The Downing Street memos clearly show that Bush was determined to have a war and actively worked to provoke a war. Bush is a perturber of the peace and must be called to Justice in the name of all the human beings whose lives were destroyed by his War of Aggression. Surely there are memos in Washington D.C. that show his fixed intention to lead the American people to war by any means including deceiving the people and the Congress.

The only way out for Americans is to renounce a war that was sold to them with lies and overwhelm Congress with demands that Bush be impeached. He could reasonably be impeached for Treason for deliberately misleading Congress and conspiring an illegal war that created enemies of the United States. Bush is creating terrorists faster than he can condemn them. The Congress must shake off its lethargy and stupidity and turn from wallowing in corrupt cash contributions from military industrial corporations and feasting at lobbyists’ banquets. Senators and Representatives are selling their souls and the American people out for luxurious living and campaign funds while innocent people are killed every day in a war they approved by accepting lies.

By going along with Bush’s lies and War of Aggression, Congress has painted itself and the American people into a corner. The war justification now is America would lose credibility if they stop the war now. What kind of excuse is this but pride? And how many innocent people will be killed for Bush’s lies, imperial military arrogance and Congressional face saving? Bush is like a deranged parrot banging his head against a wall saying over and over ‘We will win, we will win, we will win.” But he is more like a demented child feeling bully thrills and what he means is “I will get my way, I will get my way, I will get my way.” This is all without regard to how many people will be killed and crippled and how much human misery is caused by diverting public funds to the military industrial corporate war machine and Bush’s and Cheney’s rich friends.

Where is any progress from all that suffering he is causing? Iraq now has a foreign installed puppet government. Bush’s Iraq people have to hide from their countrymen behind fortress walls and they know if American soldiers leave they will be killed for collaboration. Bush and his war plotters are trying to put in place a ruling elite with a facade of legitimacy. This means empowering leaders willing to trade their peoples’ rights to foreigners for power and money. The devil’s bargain is to find collaborators to sign off on giant permanent foreign military bases and a continued occupation so Bush and his buddies can steal all the oil. The deal is ‘We will give you power and enrich you and your friends. We will protect you, just hurry up and sign the papers.” “Hurry up and sign the papers” is what the war is about now.

The British newspapers the Guardian and The Observer along with human rights groups report horrible, unthinkable torture of prisoners by paid agents of the new Iraq government. The Ministry of the Interior security building is in a fortress behind blast walls and barbed wire. Heavily armed police in armored Humvees paid for by American taxpayers drive from this place and descend on neighborhoods and break down doors and terrorize families in the night. They brutalize, blindfold and haul off citizens to torture prisons. The International Red Cross estimates that 70-90% of the” detainees” are innocent of any crime. Yet one Iraq prison warden brags his prisoners have a 100% confession rate. Human Rights advocates report that prisoners are tied hung up, have their fingernails pulled out, are burned with cigarettes and hot irons. The mutilated corpses of some Iraq’ prisoners who were picked up by Bush’s new government police were found on garbage dumps. Their poor bodies had holes drilled through their kneecaps and extensive burn marks.

How can any American go along with this? Ask people who profess to having the same faith as Bush, “How do you like paying taxes that pay the salaries of torture thugs and for their guns and body armor and electric flesh burning irons?” Torture excusers can blame terrorists but Americans are responsible for this. The American people are empowering and paying for torture prisons in the name of freedom. Think of and understand that Third Certainty, “It will only get worse from here.” The American military gives the weapons to the torture thugs and hands over suspects to well paid Iraqi collaborators. That way Rumsfeld can say “We don’t mistreat prisoners.” But the American military is responsible for this because the General leadership did not stand up to Bush and refuse to launch a War of Aggression and followed orders that are illegal under International Law.

Every drop of blood that has been spilt in this war, the blood of children and women whether killed by military bombers or suicide bombers, roadside bombings or roadblock soldiers, innocent civilians blown up on trains in Spain and Britain, every drop of blood is on Bush’s head. This is his war and he lied to get it. Behold the fruits of evil and remember who is responsible, the United States is a government of the people. The only way to clear the collective bloodstain from America is to work to bring Bush to the War Crimes Tribunal and to make reparations to the people of Iraq. If you consider yourself an honest person you must look in your heart and ask one question. “What did the people of Iraq ever do to the people of America to deserve the American war machine in it’s fury killing over 100,000 innocent civilians, and maiming, crippling and mentally impairing thousands more?”

Bush says “We must stay the course.” That course is a one way street to disaster. All it will take is one big explosion, bad computer day or financial panic and Bush can pick up his pen and sign a Declaration of a State of Emergency. Then Bush and the war plotters can get away with murder. Under his orders the Homeland Security Department will be free to do all the things that Bush’s Iraq government does, shut down and censor opposition on the internet, raid homes in the night with no warrants, blindfold and disappear citizens with all rights to a trial. This could be you or any one you love. Most of the people in the rest of the world think that Americans are setting themselves up to get exactly what they deserve for going along with Bush and his evil lies.

What would you call someone who had a grudge against another person or coveted his property so much that he lied, schemed and paid for professional hit men to go after his neighbor and property and kill any one who got in his way? I would call him a rat. To remind me of fruits of the Bush’s lies I keep in my files a photograph of an Iraqi girl of about five years of age. She and her brothers and sister and a child cousin, all under twelve were being driven home by her mother and father. American troops at a checkpoint opened fire and killed her parents and splattered the blood all over their children. I look at that child covered in her parents blood, screaming in horror and agony to remind me of what is happening because of Bush’s lies. Foreign soldiers had no right to be in her country shooting at anyone.

Bush has the American people in a trap and with one stroke of a pen he can get away with his barbaric war and take total power. Stand up for yourself and anyone you love. Point your finger at Bush and say “All those innocent people and soldiers died because he lied.” Shout it out to the world “GEORGE BUSH IS FULL OF SHIT.” He is destroying the future with his lies arrogance, megalomania and greed for power. Bush must be brought down by an enraged citizenry that wakes up from it’s complacent slumber. Demand that Congress shine the light of truth and open all records from the plotting of the war to the military excesses behind the policy of not counting civilian casualties. Put the heat on and make him squirm for his lies under the light of truth.

But keep in mind that when a rat is cornered he will come out biting. Like a venomous snake Bush must be defanged. People of America wake up and confront your Government. Swarm your Congress Person’s local offices and put pictures of the carnage right in their faces. Shout it out “This is evil. We demand an end to this.”

Insist that Congress hold open hearings and stay open all night and all day until the crisis is passed. It is imperative for the safety of the People that Congress remove from Bush and the Executive Branch the power to declare a State of Emergency, by an instant Constitutional Amendment by the state Legislatures if necessary.

There is only one way out of the one way street that Bush and his lies are taking the American People. That is for Congress to impeach Bush for Treason for plotting a war that is illegal under International Law. Congress must deliver Bush and all the war records to the International War Crimes Tribunal for a War Crimes trial of Bush and his cabal of war conspirators. If convicted rather than the gallows they deserve, Bush, Blair, Cheney, Rumsfeld and others rather than face the gallows they deserve should be sentenced to life in hospitals cleaning the bedpans and spoon feeding the blind, paralyzed and amputee soldiers and civilians whose bodies were crippled from the illegal and evil war they plotted and sold with lies. The alternative is horrendous, it will only get worse from here.
