Democracy Now will have an interview next week with former National Coordinator for Security, Infrastructure Protection, and Counter-terrorism Richard Clarke, who resigned in 2003 after Iraq was invaded. Clark was asked if “President Bush should be brought up on war crimes [charges], and Vice President Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld, for the attack on Iraq.” His response, “I think things that they authorized probably fall within the area of war crimes. Whether that would be productive or not, I think, is a discussion we could all have.”...“It’s clear that things that the Bush administration did — in my mind, at least, it’s clear that some of the things they did were war crimes.”
Col. Lawrence Wilkerson, former chief of staff to Secretary of State Colin Powell, agrees with Clarke, "I'd be willing to testify, and I’d be willing to take any punishment I’m due.
