Former British PM considers cancelling trips because she fears being indicted for war crimes.

A report with the above headlines appeared in today's Globe and Mail, a conservative newspaper from Toronto Canada. The report is from Patrick Wintour of the London Observer Servive. Parts of the report read as follows: "Baroness Thather, one of Gen. Pinochet's most formidable defenders, is said to be anxious that she might be indicted if she travelled to parts of South America in the light of her decision to recapture the Falkland Islands by force. She is said to have been concernced that some countries might try to indict her for her role in Northern Ireland Policy, including detetion without trial and claims of alleged shoot-to -kill operations by the security forces" Perhaps then there is hope to see the newest war criminals Blair, Clinton and company being indicted in some country that fully respects the rule of

law. Robert Fook will not be indicted: he will be excused on the grounds of mental incompetence. As his former wife said, the guy could not fuck.
