That's just the thing. This is not an entity in our government. This is an international organization which now supersedes our own Constitution.

The US Interpol office is located in the US Justice Department building. Does anyone else feel uncomfortable about a record repository which resides at the US Dept of Justice that is inviolate and cannot be subpoenaed in any US court and is immune from any Freedom of Information Act request?

This is a precursor to Obama recognizing the authority of the International Criminal Court and placing the US under its jurisdiction. In case you don't realize it, Interpol is the ICC's investigative and enforcement arm. There are several members of the ICC who want to try Bush and Cheney for war crimes related to the Iraq/Afghanistan wars.

If Obama makes the US a signatory of the ICC, and the ICC brings charges against Bush/Cheney, Omaba will have no option but to hand them over and tell the American people "Let me be clear - this shows that NO President may commit these acts without answering to the international community. I had no hand in these charges, but this is the decision of the international community, of which we must be a good neighbor."
