Would hate to see justice done? Or does he imply US forces have done nothing wrong so far?

Is that the only 2 possible solutions your brain can conclude? Think harder.

Those are the options. If war crimes have been committed by now trials are the only path to justice. Therefore he either believes no war crimes have been committed, or he is a defender of injustice and American exceptionalism.

Yes, he has the credentials and the thought pattern of a champion of American imperialism.
