Fox News’ senior judicial analyst made some surprising remarks Saturday that may go against the grain at his conservative network.
Fox News’ senior judicial analyst made some surprising remarks Saturday that may go against the grain at his conservative network.
In a interview with Ralph Nader on C-SPAN’s Book TV to promote his book Lies the Government Told You, Judge Andrew Napolitano said that President George W. Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney should have been indicted for “torturing, for spying, for arresting without warrant.”
The judge believes that it is a fallacy to say that the US treats suspects as innocent until proven guilty. “The government acts as if a defendant is guilty merely on the basis of an accusation,” said Napolitano.

Ordinary criminals who have committed offences are tried and convicted.
But why the powerful international war criminals like Bush and Cheney who started two major wars of aggression in Iraq and Afghanistan and who are responsible for the deaths of a more than one million Iraqis only, leaving aside their other crimes, domestic and foreign, are still free?
Why have they not been indicted so far as many in the world had hoped and still hope for by the ICC? The present Sudanese president has been held to be a war criminal who should be arrested. But why Bush and Cheney are not dealt with in the same way??
