SOVEREING IMMUNITY and War crimes & Crimes agst Humanity



SOVEREING IMMUNITY and War crimes & Crimes agst Humanity

Hugo Adan. Set 29-16

Our Senate and the House did the right thing in voting overwhelmingly
to override Presid Obama’s veto of a bill letting the victims of the 9/11
to sue Saudi Arabia. Now President Obama said the Senate & the House
 made a big mistake: that we are violating the principle of “sovereign
immunity”.

Defense Secretary Ashton Carter said that this could be "devastating"
for the US military. The Pentagon chief said also that this posed risks
for US forces abroad.  

The FACT is that soldiers & the military do not make foreign policies 
and blaming the mailman for a letter content is totally unfair and 
ridiculous, to say the less. 

If there is a mistake in the Senate and The House of Representative,
it is not to push forward & set a Committee to override such medieval
rule of “sovereign immunity”. Their work was incomplete.  Our People
is demanding now they finish their job.

We are not a totalitarian regime, not a fascistic one and if we adopted
wrong principles in the past,  we’re ready to correct it, as Nuremberg
Tribunal did it. Sovereign immunity protect war crimes & crimes 
against humanity sanctioned in Nuremberg.

We should follow those principles and make pretty clear to the
international community that we are ready to correct our mistakes.
I repeat, such mistake were not done by our military or our soldiers. 
They were done by our Goverments and we did the right thing in 
rejecting Obama’s policy on this matter.

We live in dangerous time and there is no way to continue doing same
mistakes. Simply, our Laws cannot protect bad Rulers inside and bad
regimes abroad that violate international Laws & promote terrorism.

Our Laws should protect State Sovereignty abroad and Peoples 
Sovereignty inside, not immunity to War crimes and Crimes against
Humanity. 

Those who commit the crimes of Set 11, 2001 should be indicted and 
pay for it, not matter what
.
If that implies a conflict of Interests between States, our Peoples
Sovereignty should  always prevail, since it is the base of our State. 
Union.
