International war crimes prosecution more likely if pardons?

Advertisements [?]

If Bush issues pardons to his co-conspirators, does it make it more likely that other nations will pursue him and the others for war crimes? I'm starting to think the answer is yes. Bush and his co-conspirators will never be able to leave the country for any reason. Even if they head to a country which is unlikely to pursue them for war crimes, any stops along the way will make them vulnerable for prosecution.
What do you think?
