What's "criminal instrumentality"? A weapon? If so, I'm not confusing that with conspiracy. Hugo said "If you plan someone's murder or you make a plan that gets people killed, are you off the hook because you didn't have your hands on the instrument of death?"
That sounds like conspiracy to me.
Bush should be impeached. Bush should be tried for murder. Here's a site that covers the basics of murder.

Here's a blurb from that site on the Bugliosi murder theory.
MURDER PROSECUTION VS. PRESIDENT BUSH- LUDICROUS OR LOGICAL ?? - IN JUNE OF 2008, FAMED PROSECUTOR VINCENT BUGLIOSI URGED THAT GEORGE W. BUSH BE PROSECUTED FOR MURDER IN CIVILIAN COURTS OF THE US FOR EACH OF THE + 4,000 DEATHS OF AMERICAN TROOPS IN IRAQ. HE'S DEAD SERIOUS. BUGLIOSI'S BOOK THE PROSECUTION OF GEORGE W. BUSH FOR MURDER LAYS OUT THE EVIDENTIARY CASE FOR A SUCCESSFUL DOMESTIC MURDER PROSECUTION AGAINST BUSH2 IN EACH OF THE RESIDENT COUNTIES OF DEAD US IRAQ WAR CASUALITES. IN CHAPTER FOUR OF HIS BOOK, HE MAKES THE CASE FOR A CONSPIRACY TO COMMIT MURDER CHARGE AGAINST MR. BUSH, BASING IT ON THE THEORY THAT BUSH AND CO-CONSPIRATORS, E.G, DICK CHENEY, ETC., AGREED TO START THE WAR IN IRAQ BASED ON WHITE HOUSE LIES AND FALSE PRETENSES, KNOWING THAT AMERICAN TROOPS WOULD BE KILLED. BUGLIOSI THEN ARGUES FOR VICARIOUS LIABILITY FOR THE SUBSTANTIVE CRIME OF MURDER BASED ON THE ACCOMPLICE LIABILITY THEORY OF COMPLICITY. HE SAYS THAT BUSH2 WAS AN AIDER AND ABETTOR OF THE MURDER OF THE THOUSANDS OF AMERICAN SERVICEMEN AND WOMEN WHO HAVE BEEN KILLED IN THE CONFLICT. HIS ARGUMENT FOR MENS REA (A CULPABLE MENTAL STATE) IS GROUNDED ON BUSH2'S LIES AND MISREPRESENTATIONS RE NONEXISTENT WMD'S AND THE FANCIFUL LINK BETWEEN AL KAEDA AND SADDAM, ALL DONE WITH WITH THE INTENT AND PURPOSE OF STARTING A WAR WITH IRAQ, AND WITH ACTUAL KNOWLEDGE (BEING AWARE THAT IT WAS REASONABLY CERTAIN) THAT DEATHS OF AMERICAN TROOPS WOULD BE AN INEVITABLE CONSEQUENCE. AS ALTERNATIVES TO THE INTENT TO KILL MENS REA, HE ARGUES THAT THE PRESIDENT'S STATE OF MIND RELECTED RECKLESSNESS MANIFESTING EXTREME INDIFFERENCE TO THE VALUE OF THE LIVES (WHAT THE COMMON LAW CALLED DEPRAVED HEART MALICE) OF THESE THOUSANDS OF DEAD AMERICAN SERVICEMEN. RE ACTUS REUS (CONDUCT) AND LEGAL CAUSATION, BUGLIOSI ARGUES THAT, THOUGH BUSH2 DID NOT PERSONALLY KILL ANY OF THE TROOPS, HE IS VICARIOUSLY LIABLE FOR THE CONDUCT OF IRAQI RESISTANCE WHO DID DO SO; BUGLIOSI'S LEGAL THEORY IS THAT BUSH USED THE IRAQI RESISTANCE AS AS INNOCENT INSTRUMENTALITY TO DO THE ACTUAL KILLING OF US TROOPS. HE SAYS THAT CONGRESS WAS NOT COMPLICITOUS, BUT RATHER A VICTIM OF THE BUSH2 LIES AND DELIBERATE MISREPRESENTATIONS.
BUGLIOSI HAS VOLUNTEERED HIS WHOLE-HEARTED ASSISTANCE IN ANY SUCH PROSECUTION, EITHER AS AN ADVISOR OR AS A SPECIAL PROSECUTOR. HE SUGGESTS IN A DEGREES OF MURDER JURISDICTIONS THAT THE CHARGE COULD BE FIRST-DEGREE MURDER, MAKING THE DEATH PENALTY WITHIN THE POSSIBLE RANGE OF PUNISHMENT. HE SAYS THAT HE WILL NOT REST UNTIL THE PRESDENT FACES A JURY IN A MURDER TRIAL. AGREEING THAT A PROSECUTION COULD NOT COMMENCE UNTIL THE PRESIDENT LEAVES OFFICE ON 1-20-09, THE HIGHLY SUCCESSFUL PROSECUTOR, TURNED BEST-SELLING AUTHOR, NOTES THE TRADITIONAL RULE THAT THERE IS NO STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS ON THE CRIME OF MURDER. BUGLIOSI SAYS THAT THE IDEAL VENUE WOULD BE WASHINGTON, D.C. [QUERY: DO YOU THINK ANY PROSECUTOR IN THE STATES OR DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA WILL HAVE THE MORAL GUMPTION OR TEMERITY TO TAKE BUGLIOSI'S SUGGESTION?] [NOTE: THE BOOK LAYS OUT IN DETAIL THE LEGAL AND FACTUAL BASIS FOR A SUCCESSFUL MURDER PROSECUTION AND THE ARGUMENT FOR TERRITORIAL JURISDICTION IN ANY COUNTY FROM WHICH A DEAD SERVICEPERSON HAILS; IT'S ALSO CHOCK-FULL OF WHAT APPEARS TO BE WELL-RESEARCHED DOCUMENTARY PROOF; FOR $18, IT'S NOT A BAD READ EITHER FOR LAW STUDENTS STUDYING THE LAW OF CRIMES AND DEFENSES OR FOR PRACTICING PROSECUTORS SEEKING JUSTICE AGAINST "EVILDOERS."]
