Anyone know anything about the below article. It's taken from an article called the Big Fix by Chris Floyd. Did this make any news outlets? Are these words twisted in some way because Bush is saying that he is now beyond the law.

quote:
last month Bush issued an official "National Defense Strategy" that openly declares "judicial processes" as one of the enemies confronting the United States, actually equating them with terrorism

The Associated Press reported. Law is "a strategy of the weak," says the Bush Doctrine

The judicial process must not be allowed to "constrain or shape" American behavior in any way.

I think that this is evident in respect of this administration's attitude towards international institutions - the UN, International Penal Court, ... or attempts to find some "last chance" common ground such as the Kyoto protocole. This administration is endangering the world and its people in the first place.

The ideas from the original post come from the -
The National Defense Strategy of The United States of America, copy at http://www.globalsecurity.org/milit...usa_mar2005.htm

Our strength as a nation state will
continue to be challenged by those who employ
a strategy of the weak using international fora,
judicial processes, and terrorism.


So America is going to be "challeged" by ideas, the law and terrorism. Wow, we really are moving into a new age.
