French troops opened fire with automatic weapons on civilian demonstrators in the Ivory Coast, killing many. Spain is fighting fundamentlaist islamic and basque separatist terrorism in its own country. Israel resorting to wall itself in to protect itself from suicide bombers.

International war crime prosecution will never work because by definition, it is a contradiction, a conflict of interests. Nobody is impartial because everybody is politically motivated by self-interest. And so now, along comes this ICC nonsense, claiming inviolate moral superiority, pure as the driven snow they are, and pout and scream and cry "IMPERIALIST!" and "BULLY!", when America won't drop its pants and bend over, to put itself at the mercy of its critics who have axes to grind. No country in the world would submit to having its own legal institutions so publicly mocked and humiliated.
