Bush and Blair guilty by War Crimes Tribunal and Blair Foundation's petition

The result of what was reported at this post was guilty as charged for former US president George W. Bush and former Prime Minister Toni Blair.
"The accused are found guilty,” read an official media statement from Perdana Global Peace Foundation, organisers of the tribunal.
“War criminals have to be dealt with, convict Bush and Blair as charged. A guilty verdict will serve as a notice to the world that war criminals may run but can never ultimately hide from truth and justice,” the statement read."
Now the Blair Foundation asks us to sign a petition:
BWCF – THE BLAIR WAR CRIMES FOUNDATION
It is necessary to make leaders hesitate before indulging in “the paramount war crime” to quote the judges of Nuremberg, of “unprovoked aggression against a defenceless country”. Unless leaders fear that they might be tried for their war crimes, we will live in an increasingly violent world, where The Geneva Conventions are treated as a joke, the UN is of no account, and death, destruction, torture, and repressive policing are commonplace. At the moment such leaders enjoy more and more trappings of power, and retire with vast sums of money, houses, medals and lucrative contracts. A group of UK Citizens have therefore set up an organisation, “The Blair War Crimes Foundation”, to initially bring one such leader to justice as an example.
John Pilger, David Halpin, Yasmin Alibhai-Brown, Ken Loach, Noam Chomsky, Richard Dawkins, Lindsey German, Ben Griffin, Dr Nawal Saadawi, Haifa Zangana, Mark Steel, Dr Kamil Mahdi, Bruce Kent, and other citizens of Spain, Argentine, USA, and UK, support a Blair War Crimes Foundation to seek signatures for a petition to the United Nations General Assembly and the UK Attorney General, to uphold the UN Charter, the Geneva and Hague Conventions, and International Law, and to indict Tony Blair for war crimes.
It is time for justice. The death of one 1.400 millions Iraqis and the pain of those who suffered torture, physical mutilations and many heinous crimes cannot remain unpunished. Do what you can and sign the petition.
It is about time that we, citizens of the world, take help creating a fair world.
Update: December, 2
Please sign the petition and if you're a blogger do a little post about it. It is very important to all of us.
I'll create a little text with the link to the petition so that people can copy and paste at blogs.
We are responsible and we have to demand accountability!
