1. Then the world courts would insist the US investigate them first
The ICC is for when countries are unable or unwilling to do the investigation themselves. If Congress says they should be investigated, then the US is willing to do it.

5. No need for an investigation, we were all present to watch what
went down. It's time for action, not debate.

6. Perhaps the detainee's from Gitmo...
and those from Abu Ghraib will insist that the World Court investigate. Looks like they're not getting anywhere in their attempts here.
