Sudan Hardliners Vow to Defy U.N.
2005-04-02
Sudanese hard-liners vowed Friday to defy a U.N. Security Council resolution referring Darfur war crimes suspects to the International Criminal Court, saying it was unfair for Sudanese suspects to face the tribunal when Americans are exempt. Sudan opposes sending any of its citizens accused of committing war crimes during the two-year conflict in the country's west to a foreign court, saying Sudan's judicial system will take charge of any such prosecutions. The U.N. resolution passed Thursday only after controversial concessions were made, including guarantees that citizens of countries not party to the ICC working in Sudan _ such as the United States _ would not be handed over to the court or any other nation's judiciary if they committed crimes in the African country.

#2  "Sudan Hardliners Vow to Defy U.N."

As opposed to all the cooperation they've been demonstrating thus far?

#1  Just like the UN to watch that horror occur then come marching in some sort of moral outrage to exact whatever those bureacratic whores decide justice ought to be. Useless pigs.
Defying the UN doesn't exactly take a brass pair considering its common worldwide knowledge the UN & ICC are enormously corrupt clusterf*cks. Willfully obeying any of its rulings is plain stupid, as it undermines any country's sovereignty. The only way either entity has of enforcing any of its rulings it to threaten to send a boatload of blue helmeted kiddie diddlers to your front door.
The Euro's and lefty Americans are the only ones who have any faith in that tranzi "Citizen of the World" garbage.
That whole pile of crap belongs on the trash heap of history already.
