ICC investigating war crimes in Iraq.

[Warren Stupidity]

AMSTERDAM — The prosecutor of the International Criminal Court has reopened a preliminary investigation into allegations that British soldiers may have committed war crimes by “systematically” abusing prisoners in Iraq from 2003 to 2008.

Prosecutor Fatou Bensouda said Tuesday she would review “new information” she received in January alleging that British officials bear responsibility for wrongdoing. An earlier investigation was closed in 2006.

Iraq is not a member of the court but Britain is and British nationals could be prosecuted for crimes committed in Iraq.

Why, why you say, is this investigation limited to the UK?

3. "The United States and Israel refuse to ratify, acknowledge or adhere to ICC."

Seems logical to me.
One doesn't really expect Al capone to have supported tougher police enforcement laws.

We act similarly with NATO.
