Early this morning, it was revealed to the International Criminal Court (ICC) had issued an arrest warrant for Moammar Gadhafi as well as one for his son and another top official, accusing them of “crimes against humanity” related to a crackdown on pro-democracy protesters.
Libya’s government was quick to dismiss the warrants, saying they don’t recognize the legitimacy of the court. The warrants were praised by the rebels in East Libya, as well as the NATO member nations currently attacking Libya.
But exactly what impact the warrants will actually have remains to be seen, and some analysts are already noting that it could make the Gadhafi regime less willing to seek a negotiated settlement if its top leadership is all going to end up in the Hague afterwards.
Which of course might well suit NATO just fine, as they have repeatedly rejected negotiated settlements and have demanded regime change as a condition of ending the war, even though it was nominally supposed to just be a no fly zone.
When NATO or US Government demand a regime change or arguing about Nation Building is a crime against democracy by itself.., Although US and NATO arguments is based on their assumption that EU and USA demands on social political change or nation building is instructed in democratical terms; however, that needs to be proven in social terms where there is no homeless in US and or in England or France and governments are not serving the big corporation buy starting wars but rather emphasizing their effort to build a better life for their people.., US and EU infrastructural system are not based on democracy because there is no political negotiating terms ever been on the table before or after they have started a war on falsified document or just a hypocritical symbolic expression that this or that is better then this or that…, having said that: one can look at US and its war allies from Vietnam to present Libyan war.., whom they have helped out and what these people turned out to be.., most of these regime change and those who been helped by EU or US turned out to have some kind of connections to Mafia or a dictatorial religious figure head.., beside.., the groups or a change of a political system that favored by US/NATO-EU never been a democratic and its been proven from Vietnam war to present war in Libya…, Hashim Taci was the leader of Balkan Mafia which was helped by US and especially Richard Holbrook and Madeline Albright to establish the KLA (Kosovo Libration Army) so as Ahmad Chalabi in Iraq who turned out to be the thieve of Jordan.., so how could they demand regime change or nation building by not being a democratic system themselves.., democracy is not a one way street.., it needs to function otherwise no matter who is the leader and as long the system is not functioning it can not be called democratic.
Simply for Cameron or Sarkozi and Obama or the Italian Mafiosi Berlusconi demanding such change is not their business but it is the majority of people vote regarding any of changes.., that is to say if such opportunity is ever given to a country or a government to defend itself; however, Libyan war is not about democracy nor those who oppose Qaddafi regime are from US democratic party nor they are in any social political position to implement such matter in Libya.., this also been proven by verity of reports which indicate the facts that US accusations regarding Kaddafi abusing its people is as false as WMD in Iraq.., and that every institutions based on their integrity have pointed in the opposite direction in what US and EU been saying about Libyan government.., and now this…! I mean the matter shows that US and EU acting as if the world of Mafiosi is back and in charge of Libya, Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan and rest of this world has become part of New York or Chicago or Beijing gangs from US-EU-China are fighting for making their territories bigger by paying off ICC.
The US has not signed on to the ICC but is always happy to use it as just another obvious 'legitimising' tool of empire. Why should Gadhafi recognize it?
The real criminals are in Washington.
