ICC charges Sudan president with genocide
|
THE HAGUE, Netherlands - The International Criminal Court's prosecutor has filed genocide charges against Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir.
Look at it this way, Omar. It probably means you'll live to a ripe old age.
The charges filed Monday include masterminding attempts to wipe out African tribes in Darfur with a campaign of murder, rape and deportation.
Prosecutor Luis Moreno-Ocampo is asking a three-judge panel to issue an arrest warrant for Al-Bashir to prevent the deaths of those still under attack in Darfur from government-backed janjaweed militia. He says the genocide is continuing and must be stopped. Moreno-Ocampo is undeterred by concern that his indictment might make conditions worse for the refugees and close Sudan's doors to relief agencies and peacekeeping troops.
Since he ain't there...
He might be trying to figure how they could get worse. |
