the more i think about it the more i think that such a trial would really be devastating. and i would think that no one really dared to go forward with it. just think about it. a new president ratifies the court, the current administration gets charged by allowing torture and the former president of the united states gets sentenced. i mean, just the sentence. for what can you sentence a former US president? a hundred thousand bucks? a month in jail? so actually, even if they ratified i seriously think no one would really go forward with this. at least i could imagine. though in five years, when he will have been away a while, back in the bars ... (sober for sure!) ...
given the caution they will apply critisizing their commander in chief, this spells iraq already IS in chaos. that is at least my interpretation.
