I find your response suitably consistent with Alberto Gonzalez- style jurisprudence, where there's a war that W started going on , so he can do whatever he wants, because there's a war going on. I'm sure they could work Nuremberg into their "analysis" in a suitably self-serving fashion, just as you have here. Sort of like sometimes-resident UN expert HawkMoon and his eternal blather about how W was doing the UN's work in Iraq. You just gotta believe, and it all makes sense. The Iraqi kangaroo court couldn't even be bothered to complete the second, more serious trial before they got Sadr's fine representatives to satisfy their bloodlust. I'm sure W must have approved, given how much he enjoyed joking about capital punishment in Texas when he had the final say, but I don't think the rest of the world was much impressed. Not that W and friends has ever given the least little indication of caring what the rest of the world thinks, except maybe to show how incorrect it was if it happened to differ from the administration line of the moment.
