Holding him accountable

Good news for those (like myself) who wish to see the war crimes of the recent administrations punished:

Judge allows lawsuit against Rumsfeld over torture of US citizens

US District Judge Wayne R. Andersen said the plaintiffs had provided enough concrete evidence of torture to allow the suit to go forward. The judge dismissed Rumsfeld's arguments that his position near the top of the executive branch immunized him from lawsuits involving the authorization of torture
Too bad our courts only seem to care if it's US citizens that we torture, but at least this is better than condoning every act of butchery.

Perhaps this will open some doors for Bugliosi's campaign to put Bush on trial for murder.
