    'Appeal judges at the International Criminal Court have given prosecutors the go-ahead to launch an investigation into alleged war crimes by Taliban, Afghan und US forces.

    The International Criminal Court (ICC) on Thursday authorized an investigation into possible war crimes and crimes against humanity committed in Afghanistan. The probe targets US, Afghan and Taliban forces as well as intelligence personnel.

    The ruling came only days after the US and the Taliban signed an ambitious peace deal to end conflict in Afghanistan.'

    That's investigation of the forces' actions. How about sending the politicians who sent them there to the ICC?
