Couldn't we kill at least two birds with one stone? For instance the injustice against them and the hypocrisis of the Bush administration when fighting against terrorism?

Affirmative, of course. Sad that it all came to this. I think maybe part of Mr. Obama's reluctance to pursue Bush crimes is the suspicion (sure knowledge?) that a proper investigation would reveal just who was behind 9/11, with possibly explosive consequences. If Bush/Cheney crimes are ignored, then the Obama Presidency will be hoplessly tainted, and American 'civilization' even more compromised.

This was in response to a request made under the Freedom of Information Act. Blair must be included in the list.
