Judge at International Court Of Justice Argues For Trial of Dick Cheney

++Thomas Buergenthal, a survivor of the Holocaust and one of the champions of international human rights,has told Newsweek that he would try Tony Blair and Dick Cheney as well as the CIA personnel involved in torture. He said he voted for President Obama but he said Obama's big mistake was not pursuing investigations and charges against Cheney and the torturers. He said that reconciliation and justice takes time and he feels this will happen some day.

++Full disclosure: Thomas Buergenthal was the President of the Inter-American Court of Human Rights when I argued the case against the licensing of  journalists.
