Just days after his resignation, former Defense Secretary Donald
Rumsfeld is about to face more repercussions for his involvement in
the troubled wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. New legal documents, to be
filed next week with Germany's top prosecutor, will seek a criminal
investigation and prosecution of Rumsfeld, along with Attorney General
Alberto Gonzales, former CIA director George Tenet and other senior
U.S. civilian and military officers, for their alleged roles in abuses
committed at Iraq's Abu Ghraib prison and at the U.S. detention
facility at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

"The utter and complete failure of U.S. authorities to take any action
to investigate high-level involvement in the torture program could not
be clearer," says Michael Ratner, president of the Center for
Constitutional Rights, a U.S.-based non-profit helping to bring the
legal action in Germany."

And so it begins. The Germans are not doing this. It all started with a
civil lawsuit filed in Germany the Center for Constitutional Rights.
Yet another American Left Wing hate group.

In any case, Germany has no such jurisdiction over American citizens
regarding crimes committed in Iraq and/or Guantanamo Bay (an American
base and American territory).
