Iceland ministers on trial threat for economic collapse

“ ICELAND'S former prime minister Geir Haarde and three ministers could face court for the country's economic collapse. A parliamentary commission has found they should be tried for the negligence that led to the country's 2008 banking and financial meltdown ” If Iceland isn't actually considered European, it's a quibble.  Given the love affair Liberals have with Euro law then, this is an idea we (Americans and liberals) should be able to come together on    If we put on trial our leaders most directly responsible for causing the world's financial collapse, who do you suppose would find themselves on the dock?  Names like Bill Clinton, Barney Frank and Chrissie Dodd, are for-sure. Since the then Sen. Obama received more than $125,000 in "campaign contributions" from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, second only to Dodd, the Senate Banking Committee chairman, who received more than $165,000, he gets a nod too.  Europe doesn't use the death penalty, but we do.
