I think the best the Governmnet had done is issue an official apology to the citizens who were held. There is a huge difference however between holding somebody illegally for National Security and commiting an act of genocide out of hatred.
While that is true.... about NAZI war crimes; here in Canada we did try I believe 2 or 3 soldiers for the Somalia Incident. I don't know if it was a charge of war crimes (as no war was declared), or a charge of mruder and human rights violations.
