Pakistan and Italy have tried CIA agents for violating their laws. Mexico should extradite Holder and BO.

From the article:


"It confirms what many Mexicans already believe. That there is this conspiracy from the U.S. to sell guns to Mexico, and that conspiracy has to do with this idea that America is trying to control Mexico or protect the arms industry," said Ana Maria Salazar, a respected Mexican political analyst and former Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Drug Enforcement Policy under President Bill Clinton. Before that she worked as a policy adviser in the White House on Latin American affairs.

Protect the arms industry?  Are you kidding me?

It takes real political experience to get something THAT ass backwards.

Short answer, no way, Jose!!!

We do not allow American citizens, even the scum of the earth like bho and Holder, to be handed over to any foreign court, including the International Court, for any real or alleged "crimes". Period. There is no discussion on this, ever.

They are our vermin and we will do with them as we see fit for violating American laws. Mexico can pound sand and prosecute the millions of Mexican federal and local gummint employees who are involved and/or just as corrupt. Start there, Jose, but keep your hands off American citizens.

Path, you do not know what you are talking about.
We hand over US citizens fairly frequently, it's called "extradition".
Hell, we just allowed the Pakistanis to try a CIA agent for what amounts to a self defense shooting, Then there is the Girl in Italy who was convicted of murdering her roommate.
Not to mention the naturalized citizens accused as  WWII war criminals who are still being deported to face charges in Germany

All true (except for the "not knowing what I am talking about" crap), let me show you the differences:
CIA agent - shot a man in Pakistan, arrested there, no extradition
Girl in Italy killed her roommate in Italy, arrested there, no extradition
Nazi war criminals in the US illegally committed their crimes in Europe, extradited

bho, holder et al. committed their crimes in the US - we do not hand people over when they have committed crimes here to other countries unless and until we have prosecuted them here first. The fact that they may also have committed crimes as defined by other countries is irrelevant.

The last case above of the Nazi war criminals is an example of a greater crime there than the illegal entry here.

How about if the International Court indicts Bush, Cheney or even klintoon of "war crimes? Do we just hand them over? I think not, US sovereignty is paramount, and the likelihood of any semblance of "justice" is so remote I would have to stop laughing at the very request before I would reject it out of hand.
