You can't prosecute leaders of first world countries so there's no point fantasizing about this.

At the time of the Nuremberg trials, the "First World" concept didn't even exist.

In any case, if the only example you can come up with is one from ~80 years ago, it's safe to say your post validates thundercock's point.

i'm pretty sure that slobodan milošević, radovan karadžić, and ratko mladić for example would have been put on trial even if yugoslavia had had a higher gdp and hdi - same if another, rather 'insignificant' first world country, let's say portugal for example, suddenly went rogue and started a genocide.

i get your point though, and you're obviously right: none of the US war criminals will ever face any kind of consequences, and the same is probably true for other major powers within the so-called first world.

Any country developping in middle east has been destroyed.
No "war crime" has been done, but still: destroying electricity, then water plants killed a million civilian people, meaning hundred(s) thousands children.
If YOU are american, you have a responsibility, because this is how a Nation works: your government is representing you. Else the denial is just too easy.

It's pretty clear that Bush is now regretting it, a little later than Blair, but still: this is an HELL passport.
