(397 posts)He not only didn't tell congress or senate, he lied about it. Kissinger was his advisor.
Loose estimates suggest Kissinger was responsible for about 4m deaths worldwide.
George Bush Sr. met and arranged for US hostages to be held for longer than Iran had intended to, because republicans wanted Carter embarrassed before the upcoming election - also,to glorify Reagan when he came in to office. These agreements led to Iran-Contra, which were under Regans presidency.
George Bush Jr almost certainly came to power via a rigged election. He declared an illegal war on Iraq. Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rice, Powell and Bolton - among others, lied about WMDs they lied about Husseins funding and training of Al Quada. They killed and displaced millions, they opened Guantanamo to subvert legal requirements in the US. They used 'rendition' to deliver people to secret prisons around Eastern Europe. They reinstigated torture, they covered for Abu Grahib. They used banned weapons in Iraq including phosphorus and napalm.
So there are a dozen heads of state. With crimes that break the constitution, breach the Geneva convention, where are the penalties? How was justice served? Which of these people ever spent time in jail or paid a fine or was even fired?
Justice does not just fall out of the sky
