Murder, extermination, enslavement, deportation and other inhumane acts done against any civilian population, or persecutions on political, racial, or religious grounds, when such acts are done or such persecutions are carried on in execution of or in connection with any crime against peace or any war crime.

Principle VII. Complicity in the commission of a crime against peace, a war crime, or a crime against humanity as set forth in Principle VI is a crime under international law.

    There you have it, short and sweet. A blueprint for living on a humane planet. We had the UN as a forum to mediate disputes and the Nuremberg Principles to clearly delineate what illegal and aggressive behavior was.

    Is there anything in the above that our alleged leaders do not or cannot understand? Does might override all international ideas of justice? Are the only people to make the rules henceforth, to be the overgrown schoolyard bullies that seem to infest our government, and other of the more powerful governments in the world?

    We the People of the United States and We the People of the World should be hammering our alleged representatives with the Nuremberg Principles and demanding that justice be done!

    What is happening today is the same thing as if in the thirties, Al Capone, the gangster, had told the Attorney General’s Office. “You can’t try me or hold me in check! I don’t recognize your courts.” That wouldn’t have worked. He was tried, convicted, and sent to prison, for no man is above the law.

Hopefully that will be recognized about our rogue government. They are not above the law, nor are they above the Constitution which they are trying to supercede. They must be deposed and tried for their acts. Impeachment is one avenue, a reconvened Nuremberg Tribunal is another, but one way or the other, it is way overdue.
