This article is horrible. How can you say he should be locked up in The Hague but he wasn't that bad? If you ignore all the bad you can find good policy from any politician and frame them the same way. Nixon was a paranoid weirdo but he created the EPA. Mussolini wanted to help conquer Europe but at least the trains ran on time. Say what you will about Hitler but at least he killed Hitler

The author wants people to pay attention to what he wrote and that's about it. This article about Nixon is a good reappraisal of an awful president. Bush doing one good thing and claiming utilitarianism as his saving grace is either dishonest or lazy.
