#3 Ah, this was the original intent of things like the Geneva and Hague Conventions. That was till people started making up 'international law' for political points and theater rather than the real documents. Of course, contagious pan-epidemic diseases were the basis for the CDC which like most bureaucracies decided to meddle into social things like fat and guns rather than spend their time and resources on their original mission. Now no one can do the basics.

#4 What P2K said. I don't think the UN has the inclination or will to bring IS/ISIL/ISIS leaders to justice. Most likely, that would fall upon the U.S.

#5 Sure, go out and get them to surrender. Then spend a couple of million apiece on their trials.

After all, they are likely innocent, or there are mitigating circumstances. The pile of severed heads has nothing to do with it.
