Description

This report was produced in the wake of Pres. Bush’s failure to respond to a letter submitted by 122 Members of Congress & more than 500,000 Americans asking him whether the assertions set forth in the Downing Street Minutes were accurate. The report reviews the available info. concerning possible misconduct by the Bush Admin. in the run up to the Iraq War & post-invasion statements & actions, & to develop legal conclusions & make legislative & other recommend. to him. The report finds that there is substantial evidence the Pres., the V.P. & other high ranking members of the Bush Admin. misled Congress & the Amer. people regarding the decision to go to war with Iraq; misstated & manipulated intelligence info. regarding the justification for such war; countenanced torture & cruel, inhuman & degrading treatment & other legal violations in Iraq; & permitted inappropriate retaliation against critics of their Admin. There is a prima facie case that these actions violated a number of fed. laws & clearly rise to the level of impeachable misconduct. Illustrations.
