If the US can hold the leaders of other countries to account for their actions, I see absolutely nothing wrong with holding the leaders of the US accounatble as well.
A recent Johns-Hopkins study found that nearly 600,000 Iraqis have died due to the actions of this administration. This administration has also disregarded the Geneva Conventions and suspended habeus corpus.
Let the trials begin (as soon as they are out of office, as they are protected currently).

It wasn't the country of Japan, it was comprised of citizens from Japan, Korea, Phillipines, and Indonesia. These tribunals are not uncommon,and occured during Vietnam, First Gulf war, and purely symbolic...period. a form a protest.
Every right to say it, just should be stated correctly and not spun.
