I think this is HUGE. It means that the criminals in our country, all of them, are subject to arrest and trial at The International Court in the Hague! They now have no place to hide. This also gives me hope that Obama may be wearing two hats. I hope so, but we must still wait to see; however, I can’t imagine him easily signing his own death warrant, can you? 
JUSTICE, AMERICA? DOES OBAMA REALLY MEAN IT?
American War Criminals Now Subject To Laws US Enforces on Others
By Gordon Duff, Senior Editor
In a surprise move, President Obama signed an executive order rejoining the International Criminal Court, an organization established originally by the United State to enforce international law and punish war criminals.
The US left the court under Bush in order to protect those responsible for kidnapping, drug running and torture. They may now be arrested, even if American office holders or members of the military or CIA, which, oddly enough, many of those responsible for such heinous crimes are.
Almost all facing prosecution are, curiously enough, members of the Republican Party and are trying to spin a return to freedom and justice as America giving up rights. The only right sacrificed are the rights some of the 1% and key officials had to murder, rape, steal and run drugs.
They may now be arrested under the same laws that applied to Gaddafi, Saddam and other “war criminals” that America has seen fit to bring to justice.
A careful read of one of the trickiest documents I have ever seen limits arrests of US elected officials as long as they are in office. Language protecting the military is less clear if not clear at all.
In doing so, Obama even puts himself at risk but the risk is far higher to Ashcroft, Gonzales, McCain, Lieberman, Bush (all), Cheney and a list of war criminals who may number in the thousands.
As to how far the ICC is willing to go is questionable. The organization tends to arrest only those of dark skin or targets of American foreign policy.
Perhaps that will change with the Arab Spring and elections in Europe which has gotten rid of some and may eventually remove nearly all the old leaders, most of whom are potential suspects in war crimes.
When we see Interpol put the cuffs on McCain and Lieberman and “perp walk” them out of the Senate, we will know we may get America back.

Alex go to utube and type in Libya Truth. I am sure that you won't because you argue more than any person on this site and that seems to be what you enjoy. When it comes to Oboma or Libya there is nothing good to say for the man that bipassed congress to murder and destroy a democratic country. Turn your TV off you are being lied to. That is not just my opinion it is the truth.
Sorry am at work and am unable to respond properly will try to give an adequate response when I get home....
Norad very well said and it will be fun to watch the criminal lawmakers or should say law breakers marching away in their orange jump suits with bracelets attached to their hips.
yoiu are right, Norad. quite right. Rense has discussed thus at great length and with such as Webster tarpley, Joel Skousen and others. again there may be underlying reason not made public. In Iraq they say the reasons the American Embassy is sohuge, not big but huge, is it is hiding buried alien technology, the reason for the invasion. true weapons of mass destruction. One must suspect Libya along similar lines.
i used alien technology as an example of a pretext as it was in Iraq. there may be reasons they are fearful of making public for overthrowing Qaddafi.
surely we are still on topic here, are'nt we, we are not talking about the military per say, only obamas culpability, in relation to it. the military here is only a side issue.
Has everyone forgotten what the Lybian President was doing....what his people were dealing with....we did not kill 150,000 nor anything close to that number....please provide your source of this information...
Not supporting him or saying that he is god's gift to man....my words were....because not everyone sees them as evil acts, the two sides of a coin and all.... Have we all forgotten the people calling for help from the US due to what was going on in Libya....it was made prevelant in the media and then once there it was labeled Obama starting a third war....sorry for saying that there are people on both sides of the issue.... whats left for me to say, I can't support a side, I can't speak from a neutral point of view....really whats left?
it is nit a question of siding with anyones viewpoint. the picture is broad, and unless we are in on the inside, which I have no wish to be, in case they come recruiting me LOL then all we see are facets of the picture. If Obama is a sleeper for the white hats, the good guys, then how or why can he continue drone attacks, in Pakistan? how can he keep troops in Afghanistan in tour after tour f duty? it is inhuman and wicked . I think that answers the question nicely.
Well done, consider me silenced....love the golden rule.
