the answer is: yes

the US does, in fact, believe it has that right. there are provisions
in US law to, for example, use military force to prevent US nationals
to stand trial to the international warcrimes court. they also believe
they can kidnap foreign nationals in foreign countries in order to
bring them to US courts - there have been a few cases involving south 
american drug lords.
