Germany Wants ICC to Examine Syria Chemical Attack
2013-09-06
[An Nahar] German Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle on Thursday said that the International Criminal Court
... where Milosevich died of old age before being convicted ...
 should examine the use of chemical weapons in Syria.
That'll slow the rush to war. By about a decade...
"I have again pressed for the U.N. Security Council to give a mandate to the ICC to examine the chemical attack in Syria," he said on the sidelines of the G20 summit in Russia's Saint Petersburg.

"We have launched this initiative already in January," he said. "The situation has worsened sufficiently for another initiative."

"Naturally, use of chemical weapons is absolutely unacceptable," said the foreign minister.

"We will also discuss this with my European colleagues in Vilnius" at the meeting of European foreign ministers on Friday and Saturday, he added.

#1  Same ICC that may be awaiting the one after he departs the office, if he chooses to 'shot' without Congressional/Constitutional authority.
