On the Ground with Nicholas D. Kristof - Arrest Warrant for Sudan's Leader

[howzindahouse]

Oh what a smart man ICC arresting omar el bashir for what ? war crimes wheres the evidence even ocampo said his evidence were all testimonals not physical evidence. What about bush and blair for their war crimes in iraq and afghanisation why not send a warrant for them or the israeli governmenrs persistant attack on the civilizans of gaza this shows the bianesses of this court and the warrant. They are targeting a developing country that isnt as powerful as israel or europe or america.

your country invades 2 countries and kills million and you want to talk about us.

you need to stop this guilt with association crap kirstoff. you're a jew anyway

[AfghansWorld]

President Bashir may be a criminal....BUT If the ICC is a real fucking criminal court then the actual murderers such as BUSH, Rumsfield, Cheney must be brouth to justice first... otherwise FUCK your self ICC! by the way what about Mugabe of Zambabwe?

by the way not all Nations recognize ICC as a legitimate court any way ...so no one must be worried.

[scottyf44]

Only reason the ICC investigated Darfur in the first place is because a report was referred to them by the UN Security Council. Note also, that the ICC has investigated the LRA in Uganda.

[AfghansWorld]

FUCK YOU!... ICC is a fucking white court.... no one cares about it....

[scottyf44]

Wow. That's amazing. Can you grow up and not swear?

I'm sure that people from Darfur care about the ICC. Before the aid groups got expelled, there were reports of people in the refugee camps celebrating.

Note that China, Sudan's enabler, voted on the UN Security Council IN FAVOUR of referring Darfur to the ICC.

Also, the Ugandian government itself referred the LRA case to the ICC.

u need to get some real issues in your life which makes u busy !u people have really nothing to do!u really think u can play superior in this world, we are muslims, our only superior is GOD!!we dont take you people in any way seriously, understand that, watch out for the crisis, your job, unemplyment, child abuse, drug problems, and all that shit u have, let us handle our shit alone, which u people are behind anyways!!the problem of some sudanese rebels is that they were fooled by the real Enemy

[scottyf44]

What does being Jewish have to do with anything?? What logic.

[ElectricBluePetroil]

Actually, he's not Jewish. His is of Romanian and Armenian extraction I've read.

[flowrpowrlovechild]

EXTRACTED/? THE word is descent-of russian and armenian _descent____ Just thought you'd like to know.Not trying to be smartass. Extraction is a pulling , drawing or taking out, like a tooth being extracted.just a friendly dictionary lesson baby.We should try to learn something new everyday!! Peace!

[pulgadas13]

new world order is here!!!!1

[kimoking2009]

This information is invalid.

President Omar al-Bashir is the leader of the Sudan. Will not affect the damage

We Here I come, O President

[abuabdelazeez]

Bastards!!FAGS!! who made you PIGS god on us?!!world police?? who are you to punish us in this world...bastards

[scottyf44]

Oh, so you want to go about killing your own people still, abuabdelazeez? The national sovereignty argument is bull in the case of Darfur. The government of Sudan is killing its own people.

[abuabdelazeez]

look here scotty, from your name its seams to me that you have NOTHING to do with sudan, or the Muslim world, darfur is a 100%muslim area and sudanese, tell me please, how do u even want to convince a child, that you SCOTTY people care more about muslims, blacks and sudanese than thier own brothers who are also muslim black and sudanese!!!!!!infom yourself about the SUDAN b4 sticking your fingers in something which you SCOTTY nations have no idea about!!either u r a blind TV consumer or a hater!

[scottyf44]

So what if I'm not Muslim? A human being is a human being. Humans deserve dignity, no matter, their race, creed, nationality, or religion. Humans living in Darfur are receiving no dignity. Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.

As for informing myself, there's plenty of reports from Doctors Without Borders, Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International, Waging Peace, UNICEF, etc on Sudan's actions. It's also worth noting that the Sudanese in my area oppose the NCP.

[abuabdelazeez]

if i send you NGOs which are Muslim, from the sudan and lets say the arab countries, to your country, or lets say any other needy in the non muslim world, then they sent so called reports to the base country, would you people tak ethat for credit!!!!NO!! you want to tell me, unicef andHRW and these people who live on the crisis of others are worth listening to!!!white man talking to white man, we dont listen to them,

[abuabdelazeez]

we kicked 13 NGOs of these hypcrots out,the rest wil take place in a period of one year, we will sudanize the aid work in darfur, because we are more caring for our brothers and sisters than some strange people with agendas, if you people really care about darfur, we welcome your aids dropped at the main ports, we will take it from there, but agents with agendas no thanks, we learned from the ICC ocampu shit already

[scottyf44]

Yeah...I'm not going to bother arguing with a nationalist. There's so many flaws with your argument, I'm not going to bother.

You are obviously a very pissed off person. I quit this flame war because I have better things to do than to argue against cultural relativism on YouTube.

[xMya121x]

most of the people that hate omar albashir are chad!! ANY FUCKKER WANA TAKE HIM FROM US, WILL HAVE TO GO THROUGH US FIRST !!!

ALLAHU AKBAR !!

[circusaroundtheworld]

btw i saw a clip of you on CBS news last night the clip with you and George clunie (i don't know if i spelled that right ) it was a recent one

[repwin]

Its a hard choice, if we help we do the right thing, but we'll be called imperialistic and that we want to take over the world, if we don't we will be blamed for every death that occurs.  But I guess it all depends on the actions of the Chinese and Russians, if they're strongly against it we probably won't do anything.

[pogobat]

I'm glad the world is beginning to take steps to fight genocide, and I'm curious to see if/how the arrest of Bashir happens. Excellent piece!

[abarzilai664]

Do you what I should say to YouTubers who'll post: "Why doesn't Bush and his Zionists neo-cons get a warrent from the ICC?" I support this move, but there will be posts screaming this.
