Not a good sign

It's probably not a good sign if Donald Rumsfeld "ha[s] second thoughts" about going to an international security conference because he worries about being charged with war crimes.

It's probably not a good sign that the US "withdrew its signature from a treaty on the International Criminal Court (ICC) -- the world's first permanent forum for trying war crimes, crimes against humanity, genocide and crimes of aggression -- for fear American citizens could be targeted."

It's probably not a good sign that the US is refusing to let UN inspectors have unfettered access to the facilities at Gitmo.
