Omar Hassan Ahmed Bashir Arrest Warrant Imminent for Darfur Genocide
According to news reports Sudanese President Omar Hassan Ahmed Bashir Arrest Warrant Imminent on charges of genocide and crimes against humanity? ICC Prosecutor Luis Moreno-Ocampo, of Argentina seems intent on pursuing the case against Sudan’s president once an arrest warrant is granted will be a first one on a sitting president.
Cooper of Darfur Hell on Earth links an article from Washington Post with powerful and compelling images of Sudan, and links to Be a Witness site where one can send a form email to news network to give more news coverage on the genocide in Darfur.
A risky and bold proposition no doubt to have a strongman in the seat of power subjected to arrest warrant, how this unfolds remains to be seen.
