The case they actually HAVE filed should have beena  "Crimes Against Humanity" charge. You cannot charge people with war crimes unless they were directly involved in the commission of the crimes. If they were involved in an official and systematic effort to war crimes, it is a Crime Against Humanity.

It's a good idea. But a misguided implementation. Why aren't they charging that Israeli soldier who shot the Palestinian prisoner in the leg yesterday with a war crime?
