And this is why we have the International Court in the Hague...

No, we have the Hague to give the appearance of order. If you look at its overall record, its activities tend to be limited to third-world revolutionary generals and warlords. Individuals from the G8... well, G7 now are never taken to task for the things they do, despite the fact that America's drone program has claimed far more innocent lives than most third-world warlords. We also only happen to learn of the most egregious wrongful uses of force, like the strike that killed an entire wedding procession. The day-to-day operation largely flies under the radar.

If the Hague had any real power, then Clinton, GWB, Obama, and even Trump would have to answer for foreign policy decisions made under their watch... actually, most US presidents would tried for something.
