If important = Cabinet members, Department heads, and "senior advisors": no, I think they won't, either by US or other jurisdictions. They very carefully provided legally defensible "cover" for all their decisions. Do you think that any important members of the Bush administration will face criminal charges... ?
The next level down, i.e. Assistants to Deputy Secretaries - the guys who actually wrote/gave the orders and directives to carry out policy decisions (as they understood them) might find liability exposure. But honestly, I don't think you'll see many, if any, such trials until around early 2012, when they can be used as a springboard to "4 more years", whether there's an actual conviction or not.
Corruption trials for middle-managers, however, will probably happen, as they do any time, under any administration.
What the ICC does, still remains a mystery to me.

Metaphorically speaking of course.Civilised countries don't do executions .
Interesting. So nobody on the board thinks any members of the Bush admin will face any prosecution from the U.S.A., and I'm the only person who thinks they should be careful about where they travel. Let's hope the Yoos and Addingtons and Cheneys are as blase about justice as this crew.
Unfortunatly I don't think they will be charged for all of the crap they have done.

I won't be surprised to read a headline: "Bush Official Indicted By ICC".What the ICC does, still remains a mystery to me.
