Former US president George Bush and leading members of his administration could soon find themselves the target of public war crime hearings and even criminal prosecutions, according to a leading US journalist.
Writing in The First Post, Alexander Cockburn reveals how former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld has already been pursued by French investigators, having to swiftly leave the country on a recent visit to avoid being subpoenaed.
Cockburn reports how top Democrats such as House majority leader Nancy Pelosi have been arming to the idea of holding hearings into the conduct of Bush administration staffers such as Vice-President Dick Cheney and Attorney-General Alberto Gonzales.
