Rumsfeld Cancels Trip for Fear of Arrest for War Crimes

US Defence Sec­re­tary Don­ald Rums­feld can­celled a planned vis­it to Ger­many after a US human rights organ­i­sa­tion asked Ger­man author­i­ties to pros­e­cute him for war crimes, Deutsche Presse-Agen­tur (dpa) has learned.

The Cen­ter for Con­sti­tu­tion­al Rights’ com­plaint is avail­able as well. You can choose the sum­ma­ry or full ver­sion there.

Reuters had a ver­sion of the sto­ry on their site, but it’s gone. The UPI still has it up.

If it’s on CNN, it’s well-hidden.
