Is it me, or did the excuses not fly during the war crimes trials following WWII?

Not that I think there will ever be International war crimes tribunals against the United States (at least not yet, but if we keep it up we might get some in 50 years or so), but if there were war crimes tribunals... They already KNOW for an absolute fact that their excuses won't hold water.

Quite frankly I can't believe our government has the nerve to even make excuses about the use of waterboarding, seeing as how we have prosecuted people in the past for waterboarding because it was torture.
