War Crimes
'No one should weep for this tyrant when he is brought to justice' - President Bush's words about Saddam Hussein hint at a war crimes trial.
The liberation of Kuwait has revealed torture and murder; the burning of the Kuwaiti oil fields has ravaged the environment, while some question the Allied bombardment of the retreating Iraqis.
Joan Bakewell considers whether war crime trials should follow the Gulf War and examines the ethical dilemmas involved.
