    Both of those links are Dugg, one of them 1800 times and the other about 1400, make it grow.


    That was some good stuff, hopefully a bunch of other groups and Individuals join the crowd, gang up, and push forward.... to the ends of the Earth!

    I like..... The Dean.

    "This is not intended to be a mere discussion of violations of law that have occurred," said convener Lawrence Velvel, dean and cofounder of the school. "It is, rather, intended to be a planning conference at which plans will be laid and necessary organizational structures set up, to pursue the guilty as long as necessary and, if need be, to the ends of the Earth."

    "We must try to hold Bush administration leaders accountable in courts of justice," Velvel said. "And we must insist on appropriate punishments, including, if guilt is found, the hangings visited upon top German and Japanese war-criminals in the 1940s."

    "For Bush, Richard Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, and John Yoo to spend years in jail or go to the gallows for their crimes would be a powerful lesson to future American leaders," Velvel said.

    I was looking for information about how it went and what plans were made going forward. All the links provided are information from before the conference, with a few brief comments after in the diggs.

    Yes I know there are many efforts that seem like this, but I had hope this event would be more productive than those in the past.

    Has anyone seen or heard of anything that came out of this? I saw a date of this friday that the conference would be available on the internet, but it seems available already. I listened to some of it yesterday and it sounded promising.
