The evidence has been in the public arena for a long time,but why has it taken so long for MSM to acknowledge it? http://www.nytimes.com/2014/12/22/opinion/prosecute-torturers-and-their-bosses.html

Answer - Look who controls the media.
Also it took till now because the media rely on politicians for stories, etc also. The IRS, CIA, FCC and hundreds of other Government agencies can make life very hard for people and to appease the politicians they will do it. It is something like nearly all the media (MSM) in America is in the hand of 6 companies.

Philip s. Bush and Obama should also to tried for destroying the US constitution. There are a whole litany of crimes that need to be investigated and 911 is the big one.
Why MSM is raising this now seems strange when they have ignored so many wrongs and continue to do so. Perhaps they want to have some semblance of credibility as they are losing readership rapidly. Posted by Arjay, Saturday, 10 January 2015 10:00:31 AM

Dear Arjay,
Do you really believe that Bush and or Cheney will ever be called to account for their actions? Look at history. Both the Nazis and the Communists had committed unheard of cruelties. Concentration camps on both sides of the front operated at a high pitch prior to and during the war years. While half of the criminals, the Nazis, have been pursued all over the world for their crimes, the other half, the communist criminals were allowed to go free. In fact they sat as judges in the trials at Nuremberg. They were, in effect, given tacit permission to continue the operation of their concentration camps, to expand their draconian systems to include psychiatric wards, thereby raising torture, suppression, and murder to a science. The fact that the process persisted was vividly disclosed to the free world by Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn in his book, "The Gulag Archipelago." I very much doubt whether Bush and Cheney will ever be called to account for anything. Between 1944 and 1947 the Western Allies handed over to Stalin more than two million Soviet citizens, some of whom had been serving under German command, and who had surrendered to Field Marshall Alexander's forces advancing into Austria from Italy. At the same time, many thousands of anti-Communist Yugoslavs, refugees or members of military and para-military units, were similarly handed over to Tito's partisans. Both categories were either summarily or eventually slaughtered, often in circumstances of extreme cruelty. The major part of this story was told by Nikolai Tolstoy in his 1978 best-selling work, "Victims of Yalta." However, in this book there was one incident - the handing over of some 40,000 Cossacks and White Russians, including many women and children which perplexed Tolstoy and led him on the journey of historical detection and resulted in another book, "The Minister and the Massacres." Tolstoy was involved in a court-case - which he lost, and was bankrupted as a result. Therefore I very much doubt a different result in the case of the US.

Foxy I agree. Bush,Cheney, Obama ,Rumsfeld,Gillard won't be prosecuted in our life time because they have the dirt on a whole host of other people of power including judges and politicians whom they will take down with them if they go down.
The West has become totally corrupt like the Roman Empire and has no moral compass but I like to highlight a spark of conscience in our MSM which Gerald Celente nick named "the pressitutes" Posted by Arjay, Sunday, 11 January 2015 4:54:16 PM
