Code Pink Iraq Tribunal

I don't know how much this will help, however, I'm glad that they are doing this.

The People's Tribunal on the Iraq War: After 14 years of costly war based on lies, it’s time for truth and accountability. The People's Tribunal on the Iraq War will unify the global anti-war/peace movements with other justice movements by uplifting testimonies of the costs of this war—and war itself. The Tribunal will bring the lies that created the war on Iraq into public awareness, while demanding Obama act on them. It will build and inspire the anti-war movement that we will need after the inauguration of the next administration in 2017. It will be a tool that all groups can use to build, inspire, and enliven their organizations and communities
 
Based on their mission statement, its a kangaroo court with a predetermined verdict.

It has as much chance of making an impact as this court does.

I was going to say that it is a group of people with a vastly overrated sense of importance, but yours is good, too.

Them saying they want to get Obama to act on it is more than pitiable now that he is finally a true lame duck.
 
Not that I disagree with them, but...

The word "tribunal" calls to mind some austere legal or quasi-legal proceeding intended to delve into details and tease out facts in a clear and logical way, free of bias.

In other words, pretty much the opposite of what this event really is.
