In an alternative to trial in the International Criminal Court, several members of the British military may face court-martial for allegations of war crimes, which include, in one case, charges of manslaughter levied against seven servicemen, according to a news report.

Nevertheless, if war crimes were committed, and if an investigation so determines, there should be no reason why justice should not prevail.
