(回答先: 豪軍イラク撤退開始、ラッド首相「派兵の根拠はすべて誤り」（ＡＰＦ） 投稿者 クマのプーさん 日時 2008 年 6 月 03 日 16:57:46)
ジョン・ハワード前首相がイラクへ派兵することで戦争犯罪を犯したとする法律準備書面が国際刑事裁判所（ICC）に送られた。訴訟を組織するグレン・フロイド氏は、前首相には国連が是認しない戦争に派兵した責任があり、罪状は "war crimes under article 8 of the Rome Statute" 、すなわち国際刑事裁判所ローマ規程（http://www.mofa.go.jp/mofaj/gaiko/treaty/pdfs/treaty166_1.pdf）の第8条による、としている。

Howard accused of war crimes over Iraq troop deployment（ABC News)

A legal brief has been sent to the International Criminal Court (ICC) alleging former prime minister John Howard committed a war crime by sending troops to Iraq.
A loose alliance of peace activists, lawyers, academics and politicians is behind the brief, organised by the ICC Action group in Melbourne.
Organiser Glen Floyd says Mr Howard should be held accountable for sending troops to a war not sanctioned by the United Nations.
"We have produced a 52-page brief of evidence which states to the chief prosecutor of the criminal court that we allege John Howard's actions are war crimes under article 8 of the Rome Statute," he said.
Democrats Senator Lyn Allison says the legal brief sent to the ICC is justified.
Senator Allison, who is one of several eminent people supporting the move, says accountability is important.
"This action has been taken to hold those accountable for their action, so it's essentially our prime minister - he was the one at the time [who] was the executive of government, made the decision," she said.
'It wasn't put to the Parliament and as we all know, it turned out to be unjustified."
A similar brief has been sent by a group from the United Kingdom regarding former prime minister Tony Blair. The United States is not a signatory to the court.
