We haven't heard much about it lately, but apparently there's still some effort to get back at the US for our high-handed approach to "fighting terrorism" during the Bush administration.
From Harper's Mag online.
I use the term "get back at" because I think these attempts are more about grandstanding for public consumption than they're about justice and substance. That said tho', the Spanish seem to have a real bug up their butts about it. And it wouldn't exactly hurt my feelings if somebody from Bush's team took a fall.
I think it's more than a little interesting that not one of the former Bush officials has ever gone out of the country to do any kind of victory lap anywhere but Saudi Arabia.
