Who is Accountable?

Around the world there are many injustices. Who is held accountable for their actions in international relations? As an example, I believe that there should be a mediator or even an international system (which there is) that could hold accountable someone for the hundreds of civilians that have been killed in Iraq. The attack on Iraq was done on what legal grounds? There are no established legal grounds. Nonetheless, this war was done before the eyes of every person in the world. Imagine all the injustices that happen every day that we know nothing of?
