Rumsfeld on trial in France

You're sitting there in Paris, recently retired and giving a speech, and then you're informed you're being put on trial as an alleged torturer by the French government.

If I'm Donald Rumsfeld, maybe I'm not terribly surprised by this. However, as me, I find this intriguing. Granted, I dislike both Rummy and torture as much as the next guy, but I'm curious as to how this entire process works, and what evidence they have on him, and what the U.S. Embassy thinks about the whole shindig.

With very limited knowledge regarding international law, I'd love some feedback on how others perceive this situation. I'm sure it will do wonders for Franco-American relations.
