Obama investigation of Bush war crimes begins

“President Obama has ordered national security officials to look into allegations that the Bush administration resisted efforts to investigate a CIA-backed Afghan warlord over the killings of hundreds of Taliban prisoners in 2001,” according to CNN.

The inquiry stems from the deaths of at least 1,000 Taliban prisoners who had surrendered to the U.S.-backed Northern Alliance in late 2001.

The fighters were in the custody of troops led by Gen. Abdul Rashid Dostum, a prominent Afghan warlord who has served as chief of staff of the country’s post-Taliban army.

Former Bush Vice President Dick Cheney is already being investigated for starting a CIA operation without telling Congress.  Now this.  The wheels appear to be falling off the Bush Neocon team.  I wonder what country might give them sanctuary?  Does Bush have any allies left in the world?
