{UAH} ICC the best thing to happen to Africa!

Apparent fear of a fair trial at the Hague is driving some African leaders into a panic.  They are creating all sorts of smoke screens and Jedi mind tricks to convince their ignorant citizenry (I think even they know that the world may be a very tall order) that in questioning alleged African Human rights abusers the world court is doing Africa a great disservice.  What is glaringly absent in these great dear leaders' grand postures and shrill speeches, is the alternative court to try these alleged tyrants!  They seem to suggest that their fellow partners in crime, the powerful presidents (not the African people) should be the ones to wave their pudgy hands, and the years of pain and sorrow caused by these miscreants will be waved away!  Years of observation seem to point out to the fact that the truth of the matter is that the Hague is a very good deal for wayward leaders.  The justice that has been meted out on this inglorious club members who have had the misfortune of having their people catch up with them has been quite severe!  So to these leaders crying themselves hoarse in dizzying circles, be careful what you wish for as some of your friends like the Qaddafi boy in jail in Libya may be silently shouting for you to shut up!
