      George W. Bush is the most notorious war criminal of the 21st century , responsible the deaths of millions. If the US would recognise the Nürnberg principles and International Court for Human Rights he would go straigt to prison. People who are near the Bush network are openly calling to execute Julian Assange. Would a Death sentence be appropriate for someone who reveals war crimes or for someone who committed them?

Did they do it the right way? No. Is the Middle East safer now than it was in the early 2000s? No. And Afghanistan sheltered & protected terrorists. That’s were Bin Laden was after 9/11.

      That he is a good man at the core is evidenced by his legacy. Now, I don't mean that ironically.
      Iraq was certainly a mistake - but the comparison with Russian aggression against Ukraine is grossly off.
      However, while G. Bush is assessed only through the lens of Iraq, it is completely overlooked that it was he who pushed through the PEPFAR programme - to which he is credited with saving 25 million lives. It was (and is) so successful that it has had an impact on life expectancy in a number of African countries.
      The joke is that almost no one knows about it. Liberals only see Bush through Iraq, conservatives are not a comparable group that would appreciate a humanitarian program. In other words: he got no positive political points for it, and he knew it. And yet he did it because he believed it was the right thing to do.
      If we want politicians to make the right decisions, this must not be forgotten in evaluating Bush's legacy. If we can't even appreciate saving 25 million lives, then we don't deserve to have the future be kind to us.
