Dallas, TX – A handful of anti war protesters gathered near Southern Methodist University Tuesday afternoon demanding members of the Bush administration be prosecuted for war crimes.
They chose the site because the George W. Bush Presidential Library will be built at SMU. Anti-war activist Hadi Jawad says Bush and his cabinet broke the law by invading Iraq and torturing prisoners.
Hadi Jawad: This is my neighborhood and I say the president isn't welcome here. He should be behind bars.
On the other hand, SMU officials have only praise for the future Bush library, and residents of Preston Hollow have openly welcomed the return of the former President and First Lady.
Congressional Democrats have not even decided if they will investigate war crime allegations.
