The international criminal court (ICC) has named two men wanted for trial in relation to war crimes committed in Sudan's Darfur conflict Prosecutor Luis Moreno-Ocampo named Sudan's humanitarian affairs minister, Ahmed Haroun, and Ali Kosheib, Janjaweed leader, as chief suspects of war crimes against humanity in Darfur.
The conflict in the region, described by the US as genocide, is between the Janjaweed militia group and the mainly land-tilling tribes of the region, who think Khartoum has neglected their interests for years.
The Sudanese government is widely believed to offer financial support to Janjaweed gunmen and has even assisted in attacks with the militant group.
I guess this is easier than sending troops or taking real measures to prevent further killing. At least it is something and acknowledges the plight of the victims in Darfur but I doubt that there will be a case that leads to anything more than a conviction in absentia without any means of enforcing the sentencing as those convicted afford themselves of the Sudanese government's protection.

At a certain point, the burden of debt will lead almost anyone to their breaking point. Whether it comes as a result of job loss, medical bills, declining wages, failed investments, or just misfortune, the drafters of the Bankruptcy Code understood that there comes a point where enough is enough. If you cannot pay your debts, or are dealing with a law suit, wage garnishment, foreclosure or are simply just tired of receiving telephone calls from collectors demanding payment, bankruptcy may be of help to you.
i totally agree with john we can give many opinions but we forget about political correctness. once this is corrected i am sure that no convict can escape.
I like this blog but wish you were more current.
