ICC goes after Sudanese President for genocide
In what may become a turning point for Darfur, the chief prosecutor for the International Criminal Court will seek an arrest warrant for the President of Sudan, Omar al-Bashir, on charges of genocide. This is a risky move that I support wholeheartedly. Although it may jeopardize the political peace process in Sudan, the truth is that Bashir is using the peace process to keep the international community busy while he plans his “final solution” to the problems in both Darfur and South Sudan. It’s about time that somebody took definitive action in Darfur, even if that the action is punishment and not intervention.
