Scott Horton points to this paragraph by Patricia Wald, a former federal appellate judge who served as a war crimes tribunal judge for Yugoslavia. Scott:
There should be no confusion about what is being said here. One of
America’s most prominent judges–and one of our few judicial experts on
war crimes–is saying that the factual basis exists to charge officials
of the Bush Administration. The test is fairly simple: is the United
States now prepared to apply to itself the same legal standards that
the United States applied to political leaders in the former
Yugoslavia? It is in the end a simple question of justice. And a
question of whether the United States is prepared itself to live by the
standards it imposes on others.
