Welcome to European Tribune. It's gone a bit quiet around here these days, but it's still going.

I just got a letter from the fine Ms Feinstein telling me that this was the time to end partisanship and let the criminals waltz on their merry way.

Cool.

Anybody checked the ICC site, where they list all the signatory states? http://www.icc-cpi.int/statesparties.html - perhaps someone can tell me an alternative name for Chile, since I don't see it there.

Pray tell. Does this mean that (from the ICC site), the "jurisdiction of the ICC will be complementary to national courts, which means that it will only act when countries are unable or unwilling to investigate or prosecute."

Sounds like the state that the US is in. Bush can pardon his ass from here to ubiquity and all I think of is him getting taking down 1 ICC Lane for the trial of the century.

All it will take is some country to charge his ass. What is that country starting with 'V' on the list? Anyone can get the ball rolling. All they have to prove is that the homeland apparatus isn't taking care of the potential case that the ICC would then have jurisdiction over. That Bush pardons himself or that Senate Intelligence Committee Chair Feinstein won't even consider looking into the matter, all the better since it will be all the more clear.

I'm kidding about Venezuela. I don't think that they would be the right country. Spain would be cool. They could get known for this and expiate a lot of their past.

Never underestimate their intelligence, always underestimate their knowledge.
