nations at all btw? The people of the UK are at least working on holding THEIR war criminals accountable. As they should. Blair, another liar and war criminal. Nice allies we have.

Who will prosecute the Right Wing traitors in Venezuela? Hopefully they will be prosecuted as soon as possible by the legitimately elected Democratic Government they are trying to topple illegally. And hopefully they will be held responsible for ALL their attempts, going back to the Bush backed in 2002.

And since you asked, who will prosecute OUR War Crimiinals and Torturers? Last I heard Bush/Cheney and their band of war criminals are still roaming free. Hopefully, as in Latin America, they WILL be prosecuted for the death and destruction they caused to so very many innocent people.
