International Criminal Court
A paragraph from:
http://pages.ivillage.com/partisanwitchhunt/pwh2/court1.html

<snip>

The Bush Administration opposes the International Criminal Court because the ICC will make it more difficult to conduct war. The ICC will help to deter war. Right-wing opposition to the ICC in the United States is not wholly a result of egoism and unilateralism, it is in the interest of protecting the ability of a few to profit from war. The ICC will represent the interests of the many who suffer from war and other crimes against humanity.

<snip>

The * Administration doesn't want our troops prosecuted for war crimes. Hmm. I wonder who else he's worried about?

2. not the troops....
Thats just a screen, I mean really, how many Serbian troops have been hauled up to the ICC? None. How many Commanders of those troops (like the Commander in Chief or SecDefns) have been tried?
