Two British men were sentenced to prison terms last Thursday for leaking a memo containing minutes of a meeting in which President Bush told Tony Blair that he wanted to bomb the headquarters of Al Jazeera, the Arabic satellite TV network based in Qatar. Blair reportedly talked Bush out of it.
During the trial, one of the men testified that the motive of the other was to expose Bush as a “madman.”
The Bush-Blair conversation took place on April 16, 2004, at the height of the first U.S. siege of Fallujah, during which Al Jazeera had been broadcasting pictures of dead Iraqi women and children. Details of the conversation first came to light in a November 22, 2005, Daily Mirror article. The next day, the White House called the allegations “outlandish and inconceivable,” but they become a bit more conceivable once you remember that the U.S. had previously bombed Al Jazeera’s Kabul office on November 13, 2001, and their Baghdad office on April 8, 2003, killing journalist Tarek Ayoub.
Although the allegations made headlines throughout the world in 2005, a British judge did not allow those allegations to be mentioned publicly during the course of the just-concluded trial. He has also prohibited British media from mentioning the allegations in articles about the trial. The shame must be kept well hidden.
So let us praise two honorable men who have joined the long list of George Bush’s victims:
David Keogh 
and Leo O’Connor.
The good old Official Secrets Act. It will be interesting to see what the appeals court and, ultimately, the House of Lords does with this.
If, as you say, Bush has committed war crimes [and indeed he has!], then why don’t you press for his trial and execution under the provisions of the Federal War Crimes Act of 1996?
If we fail to act NOW, rest assured that another gang of greedy, vicious, mass murderers will again ascend to power in the good old U.S.A.
