BBC News - Queen and Martin McGuinness shake hands

Headline is wrong on here.

Although there is an argument that as commander-in-chief of the British army at the time of the Iraq invasion, HM is, by the standards of the Nuremberg trials, a category 1 war criminal, guilty of the crime of aggression, a hanging offence.

Then again, perhaps best to move on and shake hands, unless of course you are a young Iraqi who lacks the requisite body parts.

Doenitz was.

I agree she is in the clear and in reality I wouldn't be in favour of prosecution of her personally as her position is symbolic. Would rather get Blair.

But she is in NI in her symbolic role not personally, so the handshake is problematic on both sides. But best get on with it.
