Wanted: another kind of ICC
But from the operations of the ICC so far, it is clear that the world will not be able to bring to earthly justice powerful individuals in Europe and America who truly deserve to be candidates for prosecution at The Hague. For if we were living in a world where we are all equal before the law and we all have equal passion for fairness, justice and equity, there is no earthly reason why Obama, Cameron and Sarkozy and other leaders and individuals in the big and powerful nations would not have been at The Hague by now to answer for the terrible crimes they only recently committed against the people of Libya.
