US OIL NAZIS CHARGED with WAR CRIMES (no WMDs yet) |
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
'War Crimes' Portfolio against United States President, Vice President
October 15, 2005
Opened By International Committee of the Red Cross Charging 'Crimes
Against Humanity'
Kremlin sources are reporting today that the International Committee of
the Red Cross, based in Switzerland, has opened a War Crimes Portfolio
charging the United States President, Vice President, Defense
Secretary, United States Military Commanders and the majority of United
States Senators and Congressmen with 'Crimes Against Humanity' over
what the United Nations has declared as an 'illegal' war in the Middle
Eastern Country of Iraq, and where the innocent civilian death toll is
nearing 30,000.
This is reported to be only the second time in the International
Committee of the Red Cross's history where a War Crimes Portfolio has
been opened against the Civilian and Military Leadership of a sovereign
country, with the first being opened in 1943 against the Nazi German
Empire and its Chancellor, Adolph Hitler, and various other civilian
and military leaders of that country.
The specific 'Crimes Against Humanity' that these Americans are being
charged with are violations of the Geneva Convention relative to the
Treatment of Prisoners of War, specifically Articles 3 and 4 which
state:
Article 3
In the case of armed conflict not of an international character
occurring in the territory of one of the High Contracting Parties, each
party to the conflict shall be bound to apply, as a minimum, the
following provisions:
1. Persons taking no active part in the hostilities, including members
of armed forces who have laid down their arms and those placed hors de
combat by sickness, wounds, detention, or any other cause, shall in all
circumstances be treated humanely, without any adverse distinction
founded on race, colour, religion or faith, sex, birth or wealth, or
any other similar criteria.
To this end the following acts are and shall remain prohibited at any
time and in any place whatsoever with respect to the above-mentioned
persons:
(a) Violence to life and person, in particular murder of all kinds,
mutilation, cruel treatment and torture;
(b) Taking of hostages;
(c) Outrages upon personal dignity, in particular, humiliating and
degrading treatment;
(d) The passing of sentences and the carrying out of executions without
previous judgment pronounced by a regularly constituted court affording
all the judicial guarantees which are recognized as indispensable by
civilized peoples.
2. The wounded and sick shall be collected and cared for.
An impartial humanitarian body, such as the International Committee of
the Red Cross, may offer its services to the Parties to the conflict.
The Parties to the conflict should further endeavour to bring into
force, by means of special agreements, all or part of the other
provisions of the present Convention.
The application of the preceding provisions shall not affect the legal
status of the Parties to the conflict.
Article 4
A. Prisoners of war, in the sense of the present Convention, are
persons belonging to one of the following categories, who have fallen
into the power of the enemy:
1. Members of the armed forces of a Party to the conflict as well as
members of militias or vol unteer corps forming part of such armed
forces.
2. Members of other militias and members of other volunteer corps,
including those of organized resistance movements, belonging to a Party
to the conflict and operating in or outside their own territory, even
if this territory is occupied, provided that such militias or volunteer
corps, including such organized resistance movements, fulfil the
following conditions:
(a) That of being commanded by a person responsible for his
subordinates;
(b) That of having a fixed distinctive sign recognizable at a distance;
(c) That of carrying arms openly;
(d) That of conducting their operations in accordance with the laws and
customs of war.
3. Members of regular armed forces who profess allegiance to a
government or an authority not recognized by the Detaining Power.
4. Persons who accompany the armed forces without actually being
members thereof, such as civilian members of military a ircraft crews,
war correspondents, supply contractors, members of labour units or of
services responsible for the welfare of the armed forces, provided that
they have received authorization from the armed forces which they
accompany, who shall provide them for that purpose with an identity
card similar to the annexed model.
5. Members of crews, including masters, pilots and apprentices, of the
merchant marine and the crews of civil aircraft of the Parties to the
conflict, who do not benefit by more favourable treatment under any
other provisions of international law.
6. Inhabitants of a non-occupied territory, who on the approach of the
enemy spontaneously take up arms to resist the invading forces, without
having had time to form themselves into regular armed units, provided
they carry arms openly and respect the laws and customs of war.
B. The following shall likewise be treated as prisoners of war under
the present Convention:
1. Persons belonging, or having belonged, to the armed forces of the
occupied country, if the occupying Power considers it necessary by
reason of such allegiance to intern them, even though it has originally
liberated them while hostilities were going on outside the territory it
occupies, in particular where such persons have made an unsuccessful
attempt to rejoin the armed forces to which they belong and which are
engaged in combat, or where they fail to comply with a summons made to
them with a view to internment.
2. The persons belonging to one of the categories enumerated in the
present Article, who have been received by neutral or non-belligerent
Powers on their territory and whom these Powers are required to intern
under international law, without prejudice to any more favourable
treatment which these Powers may choose to give and with the exception
of Articles 8, 10, 15, 30, fifth paragraph, 58-67, 92, 126 and, where
diplomatic relations exist between the Parties to the conflict and the
neutral or non-belligerent Power concerned, those Articles concerning
the Protecting Power. Where such diplomatic relations exist, the
Parties
to a conflict on whom these persons depend shall be allowed to perform
towards them the functions of a Protecting Power as provided in the
present Convention, without prejudice to the functions which these
Parties normally exercise in conformity with diplomatic and consular
usage and treaties.
C. This Article shall in no way affect the status of medical personnel
and chaplains as provided for in Article 33 of the present Convention."
The impetus for the starting of this War Crimes Portfolio, according to
these reports, was the United States continued torture of Prisoners of
War, and to which the International Red Cross had previously made a
rare
public comment about their concerns, and as we can read as reported b y
the United Press International News Service in their article titled
"Gitmo hunger strike worries Red Cross" and which says:
"An ongoing hunger strike by detainees at Guantanamo Bay is raising
concerns and questions. The BBC reports the International Committee of
the Red Cross has made a rare move and gone public with their concern
about the strike. ICRC spokeswoman Antonella Notari said her group was
worried but wouldn`t give any details of what recent visits to
Guantanamo Bay uncovered."
According to Russian Intelligence sources, when presented with the
findings of the International Red Cross about their concerns, they were
ordered deported from the United States, but not before their findings
were 'leaked' from the United States National Security Council to
members of the United States Congress, who understanding the grave
implications of these findings immediately enacted new laws forbidding
the torture of Prisoners of War, but to which their President has
quashed, and as we can read as reported by the Houston Chronicle News
Service in their article titled "Veto torture ban? What is this
president thinking?" and which says:
"Get this: President Bush - who says he wants to improve the U.S.
image around the world - is threatening to veto legislation that
would
ban torture of prisoners of war. What can he be thinking? Fortunately,
he is finding that many lawmakers in his own party see the shame of it
all, even if he doesn't. The Senate has voted 90 to 9 in favor of a
bill
pushed by Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., that would restrict "cruel,
inhuman
or degrading" treatment of prisoners in military custody.
In pushing the bill, McCain had the strong backing of Sen. Lindsey
Graham, R-S.C., who has served in the military, and Sen. John Warner,
R-Va., chairman of the Armed Services Committee. The White House
objects
to the anti-torture legislation on the basis that it "would limit the
president's authority and flexibility." Tough.
Last summer when McCain and others tried to pass a similar measure,
Vice
President ***** Cheney went to Capitol Hill and undertook a major
lobbying campaign to stop the McCain move."
Not just to the mass torturing, and murdering, of Prisoners of War
either are these Americans being charged, but also to the murdering by
starvation of innocent civilians, and as we can read as reported by the
BBC News Service in their article titled "US troops 'starve Iraqi
citizens' and which says, "A senior United Nations official has accused
US-led coalition troops of depriving Iraqi civilians of food and water
in breach of humanitarian law. Human rights investigator Jean Ziegler
said they had driven people out of insurgent strongholds that were
about
to be attacked by cutting supplies. Mr Ziegler, a Swiss-born
sociologist, said such tactics were in breach of international law."
Being kept from the American people by their Military Leaders, and
propaganda laden media organs, is that the United States unprovoked
invasion of another sovereign nation was in violation of International
Law, and as we can read as reported by England's Guardian Unlimited
News
Service in their article titled "Iraq war was illegal and breached UN
charter, says Annan" and which says:
"The United Nations secretary general, Kofi Annan, declared explicitly
for the first time last night that the US-led war on Iraq was illegal.
Mr. Annan said that the invasion was not sanctioned by the UN Security
Council or in accordance with the UN's founding charter. In an
interview with the BBC World Service broadcast last night, he was asked
outright if the war was illegal. He replied: "Yes, if you wish." He
then added unequivocally: "I have
indicated it was not in conformity with the UN charter. From our point
of view
and from the charter point of view it was illegal."
Many International Organizations are reportedly assisting in the
compiling of evidence for War Crimes Trials against the United States
Military Leadership, including the Global Policy Forum, and who have
documented the numerous acts of aggression and violations of
International Laws in their report titled
"International Law Aspects of the Iraq War and Occupation" and which
says:
"Shortly before the outbreak of hostilities, UN Secretary General
stated
that the use of force without Council endorsement would "not be in
conformity with the Charter" and many legal experts now describe the
US-UK attack as an act of aggression, violating international law.
Experts also point to illegalities in the US conduct of the war and
violations of the Geneva Conventions by the US-UK of their
responsibilities as an occupying power. The section also looks at
wartime violations on the Iraqi side."
Also included in this War Crimes Portfolio are War Crimes Charges
against 'all members and associates' of the Ruling Party in the United
States called The Republicans, who in these reports are stated as being
fully supportive of the United States Military Leadership and control
the vast bureaucracy of the American political system.
To the presentation of this War Crimes Portfolio before an
International
War Crimes Tribunal however, and like the War Crimes Portfolio against
the Nazi German Empire's Leaders, will not take place until the defeat
of the United States and its occupation by United Nations Peacekeepers,
but to whose outcome has not been determined as the Military Leaders in
the United States have stated their intentions to not only continue,
but
to broaden this wars battlefields, and across the entire globe if need
be.
