Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online.The term "war crimes" is only applicable when there is a trial or accusation in a court of law domestic or international, such as the International Criminal Court. The war crimes are seen as similar to other state powers in history, such as the Soviet Union and various European colonial powers, to use only two major parallels. Over the years, there have been many accusations of war crimes levied against the United States, including the genocide of the Native Americans, and the atomic bombings of the Japanese cities Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Unfortunately there is no defined process in the United States for addressing war crimes accusations, as the United States does not recognize any international tribunal as having jurisdiction over these matters.
