Author | Topic: On Trying a President. | |||||||||||||||||||||||

Of course not. So you ordinarily burst out with anti-Bush sentiments as part of a Tourettes fit? Somehow I don't believe you. The wonders never cease.
if some other nation behaved as the US has recently and invaded another Nation, capturing the President, dragging the President back to the invading nation and indicting, trying, convicting, sentencing, incarcerating our President, do we have any legal recourse? If somebody snatched up the President, what makes you think they are going to care about legal issues at that point? "Whatever weakens your reasoning, impairs the tenderness of your conscience, obscures your sense of God, or takes away your relish for spiritual things-- in short, if anything increases the power and the authority of the flesh over the spirit, that to you becomes sin, however good it may be in itself." -Suzanna Wesley

I was very careful to point out that Shrub was nowhere near as disastrous as Reagan. And it was not part of the OP but rather simply a comment about where to place the thread. I could have been funny had it not also been true. Edited by jar, : No reason given. Aslan is not a Tame Lion

quote: Er, no. Osama Bin Laden funded the attacks, or have you forgotten all about him? His various businesses, mostly in Sudan, but stretching all over the world, funded the attacks. He is estimated to be worth hundreds of millions of dollars, and he despised the secular dictatorship that Hussein ran in Iraq.
Here's a Fox News story to that effect that you can't dismiss out of hand. Notice the date on the story. See, the reason they are talking about Bin Laden on Fox News at all is because it was only a week or so after the attack, and the White House hadn't started dropping the words "Saddam Hussein" and "Iraq" into discussions of the WTC attacks in order to get gullible people like you to think that they had anything to do with it.

The implication was heavily on Bush, but if that's not your pleasure, bon voyage.

The question is "What legal recourse would we have if another country kidnapped a US President, indicted, tried, convicted, sentenced, incarcerated the President." Aslan is not a Tame Lion

As per my response, it all depends on the conditions under which the action was taken and as to what other nations of the world body were involved in the action, etc, etc.

...it all depends on the conditions under which the action was taken... Why would the conditions matter?

1. Whether the conditions involved terrorism relative to the war on terror.
2. Whether the allied nations involved were supportive to the war on terror. BUZSAW B 4 U 2 C Y BUZ SAW. The immeasurable present is forever consuming the eternal future and extending the infinite past.

Whether the allied nations involved were supportive to the war on terror. I'm sorry but what the hell would that have to do with the topic? The question is, some other Nation either invades the US capturing the President, or the President is captured while on a foreign visit, then taken back to some other nation, indicted, tried, convicted, sentenced and incarcerated. What legal recourse would the US have? Aslan is not a Tame Lion

Jar, you wouldn't get it no matter what I said. Obviously you're more interested in asking questions than getting answers. I've got better things to do.

Maybe if you actually explained something instead of simply making unfounded, unsupported assertions they might even make sense. The question is

We dont get any special privilege in the U.N. Little Timbuktu gets as much justice as we do. Thats why we usually don't submit to the U.N.
Might indeed does make right....Given the audacity of an enemy to capture our leader. They soon will learn the Golden Rule: He Who Has The Gold Makes The Rules!

Think about what you say.

The US will not always be top dog. Even today there are Nations that can certainly approach the US in terms of near parity. For example, if China were the nation that took the action, or France, or England, or Germany, or Japan, could we take military action? What you advocate is that power is the determining factor as opposed to law. Is that really your position? Aslan is not a Tame Lion
