2. Even before 9/11
Edited on Thu Nov-26-09 09:07 AM by on point
The evidence is all over the public record that the Bush criminals were intent on regime change even before 9/11. They ramped up the propaganda and immediately started to vilify Saddam. The lies were obvious and everywhere.

One key piece of evidence was the change in status for a pilot lost in the first gulf war. This happened before 9/11. They changed his status from MIA, presumed killed to MIA, presumed captured, and then promoted him a rank. All of this done to vilify Saddam. When Saddam said he was not in custody, and offered to help search for him, or to let the Americans search for him; the Bush criminals turned down the offer. They were more interested in the propaganda opportunity than the return of the airman to his family.

BTW; regime change by force is an act of war. An act of war without just cause (ie by being attacked) is a war crime under both Nuremberg and UN treaties, both of which the US has signed (in fact helped draft and pushed for adoption)

Really, the only question is when and if they will be prosecuted.
