going to war is not a crime. funnily enough neither is killing people in one.
certain cases such as civilian deaths will get investigated but in general wars a shitty business.
look at whats happening in pakistan. no ones shouting foul over that except the pakistanis and even then behind closed doors they'll be nodding and winking.
after 9/11 most of the world said lets kill someone, they didn't really give a fuck who. two weeks later many said ooooh aren't we bad lets stop.
my point is that yes maybe he was wrong, but if you decide to condemn a regime then you have to condemn all of the regime. most of the people in the world were part of said regime. most howled for the invasion. what do we do charge them with aiding and abbetting.
