And Obama could have tried to prosecute Bush for that! He chose not to. He chose to double down in Afghanistan. His administration gave a shiny liberal seal of approval to all the authoritarian advances made by Bush, rather than dismantle it. And now we have Trump taking advantage of those very same policies!
The DOJ falls under the remit of the executive. If a former president were to be charged for their crimes, the sitting president would necessarily be involved.
I suppose a charge could come from UN court of justice and ha lol like our leaders would ever allow that precedent to get set
