(31,706 posts)I'm not happy nor satisfied with the lack of investigations and prosecutions that led to the economic collapse of '07-'08...and the list of those who have failed to do their jobs are long. I'm disappointed in Holder's fear of going after big fish...and this is where I think Senator Warren can and will have some effect. I hope she become a burr under his saddle to push for more investigation and hopefully prosecutions and convictions.
As far as war crimes...I've been loooooooong on the record that this matter is an international one...as the U.S. didn't act alone and that the threat the booooosh regime posed to the world...and the precedences they set deserve to be investigated and tried at the Hague. One President or administration truly can't investigate another...the political fallout is intense and opens the door for abuses should the tables be turned.
It's not one person's job to see justice is carried out...it requires everyone...and it's obvious the will to bring the previous regime to trial for their war crimes isn't there. Shame on all of us...
