under the sovereignty of the United States... we are the occupyimng power

This is why this goes beyond Iraq and rises to the level of a War Crime and Crimes Against Humanity, the real of those crimes is not a national court, but an International Court.

I am sorry, but I actually have a clue how this works. Iraqis have no sovereignty right now (and why Bush turned this into a lawless land with executive order 133-13). Hence this rises above one nation, or two, Iraq and the United States.

Why do you think Bush REFUSED to sign the International Court protocols? He thought that this way he coudl escape this... well not really... it only makes bringing charges a tad more difficult as an International Special Tribunal for the United States must be formed... my personal preference, an Internaitonal Military Tribunal, which at that moment can and SHOULD include an Iraqi judge...

See Nuremberg for an example, and the actual precedent
