THURSDAY, JULY 11, 2002 The Bush administration has dropped demands to exempt U.S. citizens from the jurisdiction of a war crimes court. The administration wanted blanket sovereign immunity in the International Crimes Court. Instead, potential referrals of U.S. citizens to the court will be delayed by a year. The court was established by treaty and will hear genocide, war crimes and other related cases. Get the Story:
