| | War crime - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | War crimes are sometimes part of instances of mass murder and genocide though these crimes are more broadly covered under international humanitarian law described as crimes against humanity. | | | War crimes are significant in international humanitarian law because it is an area where international tribunals such as the Nuremberg Trials have been convened. | | | However, several nations, most notably the United States, China, and Israel, have criticized the court, refused to participate in it or permit the court to have jurisdiction over their citizens. |

| | War crimes can be carried out directly or through proxy forces that are funded, encouraged, and protected in their own war criminality. | | | War crimes also come easily because U.S. Ieaders consider themselves to be the vehicles of a higher morality and truth and can operate in violation of law without cost. | | | On May 27, in the midst of this criminal operation by NATO, Louise Arbour, chief prosecutor of International Criminal Tribunal for Former Yugoslavia, issued an indictment of Milosevic for war crimes, thereby implicitly exonerating and facilitating the NATO commission of war crimes. |

| | War Criminal? - [Sunday Herald] |
| | For the US the legality of the war was not a great issue. | | | Philippe Sands’s conclusion is that the British government disregarded international law in the pursuit of an illegal war and he believes that is why the government has consistently refused to publish the attorney general’s advice. | | | The chief of the defence staff, Lord Boyce, requested an explicit statement from the attorney general on the legality of the proposed invasion. |

| | There is abundant evidence that war crimes and crimes against humanity were committed on a wide scale in the Sabra and Shatilla massacre, but to date, not a single individual has been brought to justice. | | | Human Rights Watch takes the position that what happened at the Sabra and Shatilla refugee camps constitute war crimes and crimes against humanity, and that all those responsible need to be brought to justice. | | | The findings and conclusions of the Kahan Commission, however authoritative in terms of investigation and documentation of the facts surrounding the massacre, cannot substitute for proceedings in a criminal court in Israel or elsewhere that will bring to justice those responsible for the killing of hundreds of innocent civilians. |

| | The assumption must surely be made that in law, the categories of crimes against humanity and the crime of genocide are not closed. | | | Though there are some important legal matters for debate and interpretation, a case against Suharto for crimes against humanity is quite possible under existing international convention and international customary law. | | | The affirmation of the Nuremberg Tribunal's Charter and Judgement by the General Assembly, and their codification by the ILC, provide a solid foundation for the law on crimes against humanity as an accepted part of international customary law. |
