I also see the run-up to the war as poltically motivated. If a soldier is to be prosecuted for taking part in a war he was sent to by his superiors and civilian leadership, the politics would have to be pulled into it as well. I don't see any way of getting around this and military cohesiveness depends on being apolitical.
What should be prosecuted is when a soldier commits atrocities such as murdering an innocent civilian.
