A UN investigator wants the US to reveal findings on the CIA's Bush era secret dentention of terrorists suspects. Human Rights, may have been violated under Bush. There may be other countries involved in the cover-up of abuses, when prisoners where transported to different countries also. Canada may be one of them, or at least, allowed the US to fly through Canada's airports to refuel. My personal opinion is that Bush and his gang will never be held accountable, that is for other world leaders, not America . http://ca.news.yahoo.com/u-n-investigator-urges-u-pursue-bush-era-142233528.html

Agreed, they will never be held "accountable", especially by the silly UN. Same as other U.S. presidents, and other "world leaders" like prime ministers Chretien, Martin, Chirac, Schroeder, Howard, Blair, etc., etc.

So which "other world leaders" have been held accountable?

Slobodan Milosevic et al ,Charles Taylor , Uhuru Kenyatta (soon, has been charged) + 4 others, Thomas Lubanga , indicted but at large- warlord Joseph Kony and other top commanders of his Lord’s Resistance Army, Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir and the son and former intelligence chief of late Libyan dictator Moammar Gaddafi: Saif Al-Islam and Abdullah Al-Senussi.

No Americans charged. The US signed the treaty (as others have) to be signatory to the ICC but never ratified it...thus not worth a pinch.

...but Canada DID ratify the treaty, yet has not arrested and charged former PM Chretien or Martin for crimes against the peace and crimes against humanity.

Gee, this is like old times.....fun !

Geebus, thats a dumb statement.

Of course they haven't, Canada is not the ICC and doesnt issue summonses nor indictments.

Not a fan of either one, but what war crimes are you talking about.

Toronto, like a roach motel in the middle of a pretty living room.

Alleged "crimes against the peace" and "crimes against humanity" stemming from the "illegal" (non UN sanctioned - Chretien - 1999) war against Serbia [99 day Kosovo bombing campaign] and the kidnapping of the democratically elected president of Haiti and subsequent deaths (Martin - 2004).
