In the Netherlands charges were filed against Sudan's President Omar Hassan al-Bashir. He is charged with genocide of the Darfur tribe. (I think all of us are wondering why these charges took so long.) The prosecutor filed 10 charges: three counts of genocide, five of crimes against humanity and two of murder. Judges are expected to take months to study the evidence before deciding whether to order Al-Bashir's arrest.
Months to study....wow...that is going to save the 2.5 million that are being systematically slaughtered by al-Bashir.
Al-Bashir exploits have been well documented. I think this processes needs to be sped up in order to save the Darfur people.
I am not normally one for speeding up life (on the contrary I think the pace of our current world causes many of our problems, but that is a conversation for a later time). But in this case, time is of the essence.
