/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The U.S. senate is planning to consider the
creation of a special committee to investigate the activities of
retired President George W. Bush.
The proposed commission would focus on the approach of the Bush
administration towards national security in areas such as wiretapping
and harsh interrogations, which received past criticism from human
rights organizations.
Senate Judiciary Chairman Patrick Leahy said the experts to make up
the so-called "truth commission" will have to decide whether the Bush
administration made mistakes in its policies. Leahy, a Democratic
Party veteran, said the committee should meet to prevent similar
mistakes from being made in the future.
The question of the creation of a "truth" commission will be considered
during the Senate's special hearing, the date of which has not yet
been set, AFP reports.
