I’m currently reading U.S. v. Bush, by Elizabeth de la Vega, a former U.S. prosecutor, which presents the case for a grand jury indictment of the Bush gang for defrauding the U.S. in order to invade Iraq, and it’s a damned shame no one is going to file that indictment, because the gang is in the process of defrauding the U.S. again. Denial of intention while preparing for the invasion is one of the charges in a case of fraud.
It’s a federal crime to defraud the U.S. The case is all laid out in U.S. v. Bush for anyone with the gumption to file it. I wonder if a group of citizens could do it by class action. What prosecutor would take it on?
Read the book. It’s fairly short, and written with humor, believe it or not, in lay terms, after setting out what could be an actual legal pleading for U.S. District Court.
And while you’re waiting for your book to arrive, you can read Amy Goodman’s interview with de la Vega.
....but hey, do what you want....you will anyway.
