If at all Al-Bashir of Sudan has anything to do with the suffering of people of Darfur, then he should be shipped to The Hague to face justice. Today I am very happy to learn that the Bosnian Serb war crimes fugitive Radovan Karadzic was picked up in Belgrade yesterday and will soon be handed over to the tribunal. If he at all engineered the gruesome massacres in Sarajevo, then he should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. Now, about African dictators, they should equally be arrested if they have committed atrocities. I don’t know how Moi escaped but again, his would have a strange and difficult case to prove. The only bully that shocked me till today is Idi Amin. Amin killed so many people but nobody even mentioned his name till he died peacefully in Saudi Arabia years back. I wonder how he did it..

What I find ironic is how everything comes together in a perfect circle. Often the people perpetrating the atrocities have more often than not been funded or armed by the same western governments that want to prosecute them. A law enacted by Bush in 2003 makes it illegal for the United States to give military aid to nations that support the International Criminal Court - one has to laugh at this crazy game because you soon realize the prosecutors and the criminals are all responsible. I still think Africa should handle its own affairs even if it seems a little crude - I'm not sure European courts will be the solution. Interesting article.

I prefer the model used by the Israeli Mossad. You go out and find the bad guys on your own, you kidnap them and bring them back to your country to face justice. In some cases, you just outright kill them wherever they are in order to send a message to other bad guys who may be in hiding. This is what the Rwandese need to do with all the genocide suspects who are now hiding out in Europe and South Africa. The Ethiopians are doing it and if mugabe goes down, Mengistu is going to be in real danger. Kenyanentrepreneur.com The ICC is a joke. I prefer the model used by the Israeli Mossad.
