‘War criminal Bush’ blamed for worldwide crises

PROTESTERS have demanded that US President George W Bush get out of Peru where he is attending an Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit, blaming him for the world economic crisis.

“Bush out,” about 1000 demonstrators chanted in the center of the capital Lima, watched by scores of police in riot gear who made sure they did not move towards the APEC summit venue several kilometers away.

“This crisis didn’t come from the Peruvian people. We shouldn’t have to pay for it,” a union leader told the crowd, which demonstrated peacefully.

Mr Bush, one of 21 leaders of Asia-Pacific economies converging on Lima for the weekend summit, arrived shortly after the protest. He was escorted under tight US Secret Service and Peruvian police security from Lima airport to the army headquarters building housing the APEC meetings.

Friday’s anti-Bush protest, organized by Peru’s biggest labor union, charged that Mr Bush’s decision to wage a costly war in Iraq contributed to the financial and economic crises.

“The International Criminal Court should try him for crimes against humanity, war crimes and crimes of aggression,” a big banner next to the main stage for the rally proclaimed.

“Bush – genocide. The Peruvians repudiate your crimes,” said another.

“We believe that Bush is responsible for the fall of the financial system,” explained Aldo Gil Cristostomo, a 54-year-old mechanic standing near other protesters carrying portraits of Che Guevara.

“The war in Iraq is partly responsible for the fall,” he said.

Mr Cristostomo added that, while he had more sympathy for Mr Bush’s successor, Barack Obama, he believed the Democrat “is going to maintain the neo-liberal system” championed by the current US president.

Lima was filled with 39,000 police officers ensuring that none of the heads of state and government would be able to see any demonstrations. At least five people who were among 20 protesters holding a separate against corruption close to the summit venue were arrested late Thursday.

The participants had tried to release a number of live rats in a gesture decrying graft in Peruvian public life, the organizer, Fidel Supo, said in a video published on the website of El Comercio newspaper.

why is it the fucking americans whose economy bush has wrecked are sitting on their collective fat asses and doing fuck-all about bush.
who dont push hard for impeachment
who are silent on 9/11?
if the polls are true and the majority of americans believe their government in some hidden way took part in 9/11…why are you so sheepish?
hello !! use the fucking system to your advantage,demand congress impeach!!
no its too hard
easier to blog your frustrations
i am getting tired of tryingto push for 9/11 truth
if it wasnt for my little boy…..

are they worth your efforts?
these dumb animals who just consume and complain?
1,000 people in peru want bush indicted for war crimes

to be honest if the cunt bush didnt affect this whole planet i could not give a toss for what happens to the average yank,you truly deserve the government you have.

will hale,
your right,and at least these people like the citizens of the US know who the guilty parties are,The problem is that since 9/11,we have been pretty much regulated into basically a police state that the majority of my fellow Americans feel is a good idea,because it makes them feel safer from the non existant terrorist,When you try to discuss with them that the government is building a control grid system in the name of fighting terrorist,they think and say “Good,it’s about time the government did something for this country?
You see,it isn’t that we don’t have the nerve to fight or protest,it’s just the fact that we are constantly labeled as lunatics and it has even been suggested by MSM anchors that anyone that protest anything our government does should be locked up for interfering with the progress of the war on terror,and infringing on others rights and freedoms,without ever considering “our” freedoms,They want the right to express their opinion,but we shouldn’t if it differs from theirs.That’s the reason we are where we are today,and unfortunately,many millions of Americans will die because of the atrocities committed by our government with which we lost control of nearly 100 years ago,when people worldwide hate America,do they really hate me,or do they hate the policies set forth by my government that further press them to the same abbyss that I’m pushed to,

On the lighter side though,
People here are really starting to open their eyes now that the country is about to hit rock bottom and their fancy SUV’s are being towed out of the driveway of the house they will be abandoning fairly soon due to the inability to pay their mortgage,we have suffered devastating job losses not only due to the recent economy crash,but millions of us have had our jobs sent out of the country in the name of corporate profits,and cheaper labor, now we’re staring down the barrel of the big 3 auto makers literally folding and putting the final nail in the coffin of the American dream.

thanks inferno.
my point is the democrats have done nothing in 2 years except reward bush with funding for his illegal war.
kucinich is a lone voice trying to impeach.
if he had the suppot it would work
the media would have no choice if 1,000’s turned up outside congress and demanded impeachment.
they would report it.
evil is flourishing because not enough good people are prepared to stand up for what is right!
obama hmmm i dont hear any new investigation of 9/11
any criminal charges against bush and cheney and the rest of them weasels
so i sense he will be all style and no substance.
i hope i am wrong

I am SORRY! To all the people of the world, being an American feels really bad to me at this point in time, There was a time when it felt good, now it sickens me to see the things happening under Old Glory, I again say please don’t think all of us are this evil, an maybe we can take back or country an use America’s long arm to reach out an help the world instead of beating killing an robbing the world!

They hit the nail right on the head.The Bush mob has done it all from war crimes to financial chaos .You name hes done it nothing escaped the Bush tyranny .What did the American public expect from a military deserter a stock manipulator and a drunken bum. Prescott taught his boys well ,exploit everything leave no stone unturned ,if someone or something is no longer useful to you get rid of it.Make sure that you always have a patsy to blame if things go wrong
surround yourself with people that have no conscience or regrets.Yes sir the bush boys listened to grandpa .In about 57 days the latest criminal is going to walk out of the white house as free as a bird with billions of dollars of the peoples money.Who knows maybe a few years from now that might even honor him with a battle ship with his name on it………………………
