A symbolic tribunal in Malaysia ruled unanimously Tuesday that former  U.S. President George W. Bush and former British Prime Minister Tony  Blair were both guilty of “crimes against peace” for the 2003 invasion  of Iraq.
The Kuala Lumpur War Crimes Tribunal, part of an initiative by former  Malaysian premier Mahathir Mohamad – a fierce critic of the Iraq war –  found the former leaders guilty after a four-day hearing.
While the court is modeled  after the post-World War II  Nuremberg Tribunal, it carries no legal weight.
“War criminals have to be dealt with — convict Bush and Blair  as charged,” a statement from Mahathir’s Perdana Global Peace Foundation  said. “A guilty verdict will serve as a notice to the world that war  criminals may run but can never ultimately hide from truth and justice.”
