Why We Must Prosecute Bush and His Administration for War Crimes因此,我们必须起诉布什和他的政府对战争罪行 Friday, December 19th, 2008 周五, 08年十二月十九日
By Mike Ferner网易Ferner During the rush to get the Nuremberg Tribunals underway, the Soviet delegation wanted the tribunal’s historic decisions to have legitimacy only for the Nazis.在急于得到纽伦堡法庭进行,苏联代表团希望法庭的历史性决定的合法性不仅是纳粹分子。 US Supreme Court Justice, Robert Jackson, serving as the chief prosecutor for the Allies, strong-armed the Soviets until the very beginning of the tribunal before changing their mind.美国联邦最高法院大法官罗伯特杰克逊,担任首席检察官的盟友,强大的武装,直到苏联一开始,法庭前改变他们的想法。 In his opening statement Jackson very purposely stipulated, “Let me make clear that while this law is first applied against German aggressors, the law includes, and if it is to serve a useful purpose it must condemn aggression by any other nations, including those which sit here now in judgment.”在开幕发言中非常有意杰克逊规定, “让我清楚地看到,这项法律是第一次申请对德国侵略者,包括法律,如果它要起到有益的作用,必须谴责任何侵略其他国家,包括那些现在坐在这里的判断。 “ Can there be a better reason for prosecuting George Bush and his administration for war crimes than those words from the chief prosecutor of the Nazis, a US Supreme Court Justice, with the full support of the US government?能有一个更好的理由起诉美国总统布什和他的政府对战争罪行的话比那些从检察长的纳粹,美国最高法院法官,以全力支持美国政府? Robert Jackson’s words and the values this nation claims to stand for provide sufficient moral basis for putting Bush and Cheney, their underlings who implemented their policies and the perverted legal minds who justified them all in the dock.罗伯特杰克逊的话和价值观这个国家声称主张提供足够的道德基础,把布什和切尼,他们的部下谁执行其政策和法律的扭曲心灵谁所有这些理由中的码头。 If those are not sufficient reasons, there is a long list of binding law and treaties — written in black and white in surprisingly plain English.如果这些是不够的原因,还有很长的名单,有约束力的国际法和条约-白纸黑字的奇怪简单易懂的英语。 Bush imagined, and his attorneys advised, that he could simply wave aside these laws with “they don’t apply.” Imagine how a judge would treat even a simple traffic court defendant who brazenly stated the law was only a quaint notion, just “words on paper?”布什想象的,他的律师建议说,他可能只是波这些法律除了与“他们并不适用。 ”试想,法官如何对待甚至一个简单的交通法院被告谁明目张胆地指出,法律只是一个古朴的概念,只是“一纸空文? “ Masses of people and an embarrassingly small number of their elected representatives in this country read the law for themselves and demanded otherwise, only to be silenced by the Guardians of Reality in the corporate news media.人民群众和尴尬少数他们选出的代表在这个国家的法律读为自己和要求,否则只能保持沉默的守护现实中的企业新闻媒体。 But it’s all there, where it has been for 220 years, the Constitution’s “supremacy clause,” Article II, section 4, and in the但它都在那里,那里已经220年来,宪法的“霸权条款”第二条第4款,并在 War Crimes Act of 1996战争罪法1996年 (18USC §2441). ( 18USC § 2441 ) 。 They provide the authority to make additional treaties legally binding — no matter how much former White House lawyers David Addington and John Yoo may object.他们提供的权威,使更多的具有法律约束力的条约-不管有多少前白宫律师大卫阿丁顿和约翰柳可能对象。 Those additional treaties include among others, the这些额外的条约包括除其他外, Geneva Conventions日内瓦公约 , the Nuremberg rulings, the ,纽伦堡法庭的裁决,该 Laws and Customs of War on Land战争法和惯例的土地 and和 UN General Assembly Resolution 3314联大第3314号决议 . 。 To give just a snapshot of how serious these laws are, consider this portion of 18 USC 2441 which defines a war crime as “a grave breach in any of the international conventions signed at Geneva 12 August 1949, or any protocol to such convention to which the United States is a party…” The guilty can be “fined under this title or imprisoned for life or any term of years, or both, and if death results to the victim, shall also be subject to the penalty of death.”为了让刚刚快照多么严重这些法律,可以考虑这部分2441年南加州大学18日确定了战争罪的“严重违反任何国际公约在日内瓦签署一九四九年八月十二日,或任何此类协议的公约美国是一个政党... “有罪可以”根据本罚款所有权或终身监禁或任何任期两年,或两者,如果造成死亡的受害者,也应受死刑。 “ Here, Justice Jackson answers another question about war crimes — who bears the greater responsibility: those who committed barbaric acts in the field or those who created the conditions for barbarism?在这里,杰克逊法官另一个问题的答案对战争罪行-谁承担更大的责任:谁犯下这些野蛮行为在外地或谁创造了条件野蛮?
And yet it is not just because Bush violated the Constitution and federal law that he and his lieutenants must be prosecuted.然而, 这不只是因为布什违反宪法和联邦法律,他和他的助手必须受到起诉。 At Nuremberg, the foremost crime identified was starting a “war of aggression,” later codified by UN Resolution 3314, Art.在纽伦堡,最重要的是查明犯罪开始“侵略战争” ,后来编入由联合国第3314号决议,艺术。 5, as “a crime against international peace.” Launching a war of aggression, as Hitler did against Poland, is considered so monstrous that the nation responsible can then be charged with “war crimes” and “crimes against humanity,” spelled out in detail in the Geneva Conventions. 5 ,作为“破坏国际和平的罪行。 ”发动侵略战争,因为希特勒对波兰,被认为是如此可怕的是负责任的国家,然后被落案控以“战争罪”和“反人类罪” ,阐明了详细的日内瓦公约。 As Tom Paine said long before the UN formalized the definition of aggression, “He who is the author of a war lets loose the whole contagion of Hell and opens a vein that bleeds a nation to death.正如汤姆潘恩说,很久以前,联合国正式侵略的定义, “他谁是作者的战争让整个松散的蔓延和地狱打开了一个精神,一个民族出血死亡。 A small sampling of the contagion of Hell let loose by Bush includes illegally invading a sovereign state, using banned weapons such as一个小型的样片蔓延的地狱让布什松散包括非法入侵一个主权国家,使用违禁武器,如 white phosphorous白磷 and和 napalm凝固汽油弹 , , bombing hospitals轰炸医院 and civilian infrastructure, withholding aid and和民用基础设施,扣压援助和 medical supplies医疗用品 , , terrorizing恐吓 and knowingly明知故犯 killing civilians杀害平民 , , torturing prisoners虐待囚犯 , killing a ,杀死了 million people万人 and displacing four million more in Iraq alone.并取代400万以上仅在伊拉克。 Following World War II, humanity resolved that wars do more than spark a series of loathsome, individual crimes.第二次世界大战后,人类解决,战争不超过引发了一系列令人憎恶的,个别的罪行。 Leaders responsible for a war actually commit crimes against the entirety of humanity.领导负责战争实际上犯下罪行的整个人类。 They inflict harm on every human being, something that must be put right before humanity can be restored.他们伤害任何人,而这必须建立在人类的权利,才能恢复。 There is a final reason why we must prosecute Bush and Co. It is not what some argue, although they point to a serious danger: that Bush trashed the law and usurped powers, encouraging future presidents to expand where he left off.有一个最后的原因,我们必须起诉布什和公司这不是什么一些人认为,尽管他们指向一个严重的危险:看不上,布什的法律和篡夺权力,鼓励未来的总统,扩大在他离开了。 Such reasons are about George Bush and those who hold the office after him, but in the final analysis this is about us.这种原因是对美国总统布什和那些谁持有他的办公室,但归根到底,这是对我们。 We are complicit in the horrors of this administration.我们是串通一气的恐怖政权。 We can claim neither ignorance nor innocence.我们可以声称既不愚昧,也不是清白的。 We are complicit by the very fact that we are citizens of the United States, more so because we paid for the war, and even more so for this reason.我们是串通一气的事实,我们正在美国公民,更是因为我们支付的战争,更是出于这个原因。 Listen to a village sheik I met in Iraq describe it better than I ever could.听村酋长我会见了在伊拉克的描述它比我以往任何时候都可以。 I met this man in a small farming village one afternoon in early 2004.我见到这个男人在一个小村庄一个下午,在2004年初。 He described how he and a dozen others were swept up in a raid by the US Army and detained on a bare patch of ground surrounded by concertina wire.他描述他如何与十几个人席卷的一次搜捕行动中,美国陆军和拘留的裸露地面修补所包围铁丝网。 They had no shelter and but six blankets.他们没有住房,但有6个毯子。 They dug a hole with their hands for a toilet.他们挖了一个洞,他们的手一个厕所。 They had to beg for water until one time it rained for three days straight and they remained on that open ground.他们乞求的水,直到一个下雨的时间为3天,他们连续保持在该空地。 He somehow found the graciousness to say he understood there was a difference between the American people and our government.他不知发现了graciousness说,他理解有差异美国人民和我们的政府。 Then through his tears he added, “But you say you live in a democracy.然后通过他的眼泪他补充说, “但是你说你生活在一个民主国家。 How can this be happening to us?”这怎么发生的呢? “ Do we?难道我们? Whether or not we bring our own government officials to justice for their crimes will determine the answer.不管我们把我们自己的政府官员,司法对他们的罪行将确定的答案。 Have Your Say: Why We Must Prosecute Bush and His Administration for War Crimes 你说:我们为什么必须起诉布什和他的政府对战争罪行 Please read our请仔细阅读我们的 posting guidelines before posting张贴在发布前的指导方针 . 。 Alternatively或者 you can discuss this report here你可以讨论这份报告在这里 . 。 2 Responses to “Why We Must Prosecute Bush and His Administration for War Crimes”第2反应“为什么我们必须起诉布什及其政府的战争罪行”
