Just like a murder/robbery is considered a major crime, but no one is held accountable for 100,000 killed in a made up war that is not ending.
Yes, but, interestingly, ALL gov'ts and probably all cultures consider homicide in war to be no crime under most conditions. In fact, it can be a laudable act worthy of recognition.

If JFK had been killed by one of the counter-attempts by Castro caused by attempts by the CIA to kill Castro, a US declaration of war likely would have followed and been honored by other nations. Yet WW1 was set off by the assassination of the crown prince of the Austria-Hungarian Empire in Serbia and there is evidence that the gov't of Serbia was involved or at least knew of this attempt. Yet most other European powers (most of them monarchies of one sort or another) pretended outrage at Austria and declared war on it when it declared war on Serbia.
