Hitler paid the price. Hussein and Milosevic also paid for something. Charles Taylor is in the process...
How about impeaching/prosecuting the people responsible for the massive financial crisis originating in the US in the last few months of US supreme commander, Bush.
The effect of the bush administrations policies(not only the innocent victims of US-led wars which will cost over a trillion dollars of largely borrowed bucks), but the effect of it's American dominated global financial system.
Already the developing world has had to struggle with extremes in the price of oil, largely due to Americas' selfish domination and the the capitalist speculative system. These rich boys(and a few lasses)selfish money games, and the bullying and invasion of sovereign nations, has caused widespread hurt and suffering throughout the world.
Current events are proof that an unregulated free market, capitalist system is not a wholesome method to run this world. Just like National socialism of the Nazis or Maoism of Pol Pot, these systems may seem appealing on paper, but we all know their real effect. Putting the selfish desire of individuals to stash as much money in their pockets as possible, by whatever means, is essentially the "American Dream".
But, destroying the environment; exploiting workers; degrading food quality; removing species off the face of the earth; causing death, starvation and disease, really do happen as a direct result of free-market capitalism and globalization.
Is this really the best way?
