we have, since 2002, an active international criminal court. e today and they think that it is fundamentally failing, that it is failing to deliver proper true accountability and justice. it's failing to deliver the vision of 19115. you know, on the first day of that famous trial — possibly the most famous trial in human history, nuremberg — robertjackson, chief prosecutor stood up and said, "never again. "we are going to set down the principles, "we're going to set down the rules" and that, plainly, hasn't happened. so if that is the standard, there is failure. but i don't think he would've imagined, or any of the other prosecutors would've imagined, that it would be, in fact, practically never again. the justice that has been delivered since 1945, it was a new invention — it's just 75 years old — is lopsided justice. it's essentially focused on the vanquished and the weak. and that is a problem, but i think it's going to be seen in the long run — and it's a long game — as the inevitable start of the system. but why is it a long game? why can y

well, the idea is that it will be adopted by the international criminal court. right now the i, c, c has jurisdiction over 4 kinds of atrocities. they all relate to human suffering. ecosign, if accepted, would be added as a 5th, a crime against nature. but it will require 2 thirds of the courts member states to accept a change to the rome statute. the treaty that underpins the i c. c that at least $82.00 states. we sound like an awful lot. but if you put together many of those vulnerable states, each state having a bait, if not perhaps, as unreachable as you might think, european countries like belgium and france are getting behind it, fulfill also does kill so bellman donna de la donna shannon. so how would it work? well, the law wouldn't be applied retroactively, so no one would go down for say chernobyl. and there are also the limitations of the court itself. some major countries aren't even members of the i, c. c, including the world's top 3 polluters, china, that us and india. but that doesn't necessarily mean that individuals from non member countries woul

many cases presented at the international criminal court against the government of president nicola, my loader, ministry, and officials are being investigated for crimes against humanity for extreme repression and serious human rights abuses. one follow emily, there was just one of the thousands of young people that took to the streets to protest against the government of nicola, my lord, are with his room. these are some of his belongings for the government. he was a terrorist, but these are some of the things he wrote. i want to graduate in a university in the united states. i want to be an n b a player. i want to be the best player in the world. and i one word piece the investigation against venezuela includes accusations of secret detention and torture side. even a government plan that targeted protesters as opposition forces. it also includes human rights abuses against opponents, but also members of the security forces who dared to challenge the government. we should, i quote them as a troll at the international criminal court, includes the possibility of a detention or somethi

amy: the international criminal court, should barack obama as president signed onto the icc? for the international criminal court? >> yes. if you believe in the rule of law, you say this is one particularly important instrument because it is an instrument that is -- no longer tolerate impunity. the many who are guilty, as is happening just now in the drc or in darfur, that people who are guilty of egregious violations have to be brought to book, and it's got to be done in a way that satisfies those standards that we have. i mean, you don't hold people in detention without trial. that's what the world used to say against the south africa government. and if it was true that that was wrong, it has to be wrong consistently everywhere. amy: president obama supports an end to the war in iraq but a surge of soldiers in afghanistan. what are your words of wisdom to him? >> well, i say that obviously it's to end the war, yeah? to end the occupation, to -- but i've also said it would wonderful if, on behalf of the american people, he were to apologize to the iraqis and to the rest of th

the only ones who responded by threatening the international criminal court will be united states of america. they said that we will sanction all members of the national committee court. we will arrest any members of the icpc who come to the usa or elsewhere that want to investigate us. i think the united states of america needs to step back if it wants to help any of any assistance to the people who understand it's got in the position to negotiate those conditions. it has, it has been an aggressor. the taliban already made gestures to russia to its china, to it's the wrong to it's pakistan with indonesia, with the united states and britain in particular. i think that feeling very upset because this is a defeat. it's a military defeat. however, you want to look at it and not imperial hubris, as it were, will not allow them to say that we need to move forward and continue within negotiations that we began in doha, that they cannot be any more saber rattling. it's no good for the african people. it's no good. i've got in touch with a britain or america you've really got to find a way fo

and you're also calling for the un security council to refer the situation to the international criminal court. but given the divisions in the international community that we see when it comes to me in mar, how is it difficult for neighboring countries as well as the international community to, to be able to speak in one voice? well, i think it's now getting to the point when you see atrocity after atrocity like this, that the un security council has to act. and if russia and china are going to stand up in veto actions to send these kind of situation to the international criminal court, they have to publicly justify in the, in the court of world opinion why they're doing. so, why is the chinese government? why is the russian government standing with the military that commits these kind of atrocities they need to explain? and you know, to say that if there's divisions at the security council, so things can't get for this is a, an all too convenient out. we're sharing the same thing about sanctions. you know, it's the security council is divided. we can't do this, we can't do that. it's time for
