WASHINGTON, March 2, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Libyan dictator Gaddafi and his henchmen have acknowledged responsibility for the murder hundreds of Americans (including 270 in the bombing of Pan Am 103 over Lockerbie Scotland and 170 in the bombing of the French UTA airliner over Niger as well as other Westerners in terrorist attacks), plus thousands of Libyans in his 40+ years in power. Gaddafi has now used his military and foreign mercenaries to kill a thousand or more of his own people peacefully demonstrating against him, to stay in power. Currently, Libya's diplomats have resigned en masse and the UN Security Council and the U.S. and its allies have acted to freeze assets and imposed travel and other sanctions against Gaddafi and his family. Gaddafi and his henchmen have also...

-11 became a clarion call for a fanatical crusade against Arabs/Muslims and a call for a permanent worldwide war: God Bless America. With it also came a moral demand for the speeding up of Big Brother Society with nonsensical mantras such as: "The U.S. Constitution is not a suicide pact" and "the Geneva Conventions are now 'quaint' and obsolete." God had bequeathed to the United States its own special set of laws that Americans could obey or disobey at the discretion of their God-inspired leader. That's why the [Bush-Cheney] administration worked feverishly to ensure that Americans [soldiers and/ or mercenaries] were not subject to the International Criminal Court of Justice. Enter hate. The climate was created that those that were to be receiving our bombs were different than us. Brow...
Other NEA resolutions promote the gayrights agenda in public school curricula by demanding funds to alleviate "sexual orientation discrimination," to use multicultural education to reduce "homophobia," and even to put "diversity-based curricula" and "bias-free screening devices in early childhood education." NEA resolutions endorse global education, multicultural education, the United Nations, the UN Declaration of Human Rights, the International Court of Justice, the International Criminal Court, the globalist version of environmental education, and opposition to English as our official language.

Sen. Frank Lautenberg joined other lawmakers Monday in urging Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to prosecute Moammar Gadhafi for his role in the 1988 bombing of Pan Am 103, which exploded over Lockerbie, Scotland, in 1988, killing 270 people. Thirty-seven New Jersey residents were among those who died. Several of their relatives said Monday that they welcomed Lautenberg's call for the Libyan leader to face a full accounting of justice in the International Criminal Court in The Hague if he is captured.
This article aims to contribute to the discourse on the development of a system of international criminal justice. The paper discusses the Special Court for Sierra Leone (SCSL), in particular, certain of its rules of evidence and their role in ensuring just, fair and expeditious trials for breaches of international humanitarian and international human rights law during the Sierra Leone conflict which lasted between 1991 and 2002. In the conclusion, the author considers whether the manner in which the SCSL interpreted and applied specific rules of evidence helped it to meet and contribute to the objectives of a system of international criminal justice. These objectives include holding violators of international norms accountable; guaranteeing procedural proprietary; giving legitimacy to ...

In one of his last official acts as President, Bill Clinton signed the so-called "Rome Statute" creating an International Criminal Court (ICC). A supposed instrument of "international justice" for perpetrators of war crimes and crimes against humanity, the ICC is instead a massive power grab by an unaccountable pseudo- judicial body lacking the most elementary protections found in the U.S. Constitution. President George W. Bush's wise decision to withdraw the Clinton signature from the ICC prompted howls of protest from the usual quarters, notably proponents of world government and, not surprisingly, many Democrats in Congress. Unfortunately, with a Democrat now in the White House - and Mr. Clinton's wife in charge at the State Department - there is a danger that President Obama will si...

Association of the American Law Schools Panel on the International Criminal Court - Panel Discussion A panel on the International Criminal Court, sponsored by the Sections on International Law and Criminal Justice of the Association of American Law Schools, took place at New Orleans, Louisiana, on January 9, 1999. The year 1999 marks the centennial of the first Hague Peace Conference, which encouraged the development of international criminal law. An important development since then is that individual officials, as well as states collectively, can be held accountable for abuses.
