for War Crimes
We, the undersigned, believe George W. Bush should be prosecuted for the following war crimes:
1. George W. Bush ordered a War of Aggression against Iraq. This constitutes a Crime Against Peace - for which Nazi leaders were prosecuted at the Nuremberg Trials - and violates the UN Charter.
-Iraq never attacked the US or threatened an attack, so the US is not acting legally in self-defense, which is permitted under the UN Charter.
-Iraq played no role in the September 11, 2001 attack on the US and never provided material support to any terrorist group that attacked the US, so even the non-legal Bush doctrine of pre-emptive attack does not apply.
-At the time of the US attack, Iraq was nearing full compliance with UN Resolution 1441 and prior resolutions requiring disarmament, and the majority of the Security Council believed UN inspectors should be given more time, so the US is not enforcing UN resolutions, as it claims.
-George W. Bush ordered the invasion of Iraq in order to bring about a regime change, which was never authorized by a UN resolution, and violates the UN Charter.
