      Some Argentinean jurists contend, however, that Article 118 is little more than a jurisdictional requirement, for although it allows the National Congress to dictate where trials for delicta iuris gentium should be held, it by no means elevates crimes against humanity above those domestic crimes amnestiable by national law.
