Bush Avoids Arrest in Switzerland

This made me smile. Can you imagine not being able to go to certain nations for fear of being arrested for war crimes?

GENEVA, Feb 5 (Reuters) - Former U.S. President George W. Bush has cancelled a visit to Switzerland, where he was to address a Jewish charity gala, due to the risk of legal action against him for alleged torture, rights groups said on Saturday.

Bush was to be the keynote speaker at Keren Hayesod's annual dinner on Feb. 12 in Geneva. But pressure has been building on the Swiss government to arrest him and open a criminal investigation if he enters the Alpine country.

Naturally, Bush thinks he's going to be arrested by the Swedes.
