The validity of the International Criminal Court's indictment of Sudanese President Omar Hassan al-Bashir notwithstanding, the decision and others involving Congolese politician and warlord Jean Pierre Bemba and former Liberian President Charles Taylor, smack of a selective approach to justice.

Just small correction. President of Yugoslavia Slobodan Milosevic was not tried by the ICC (International Court of Justice) created by the UN General Assembly but by a special court created by the UN Security Council called the International Criminal Court for the Former Yugoslavia. President Charles Taylor of Liberia is under trial at the Special Court for Sierra Leone (SCSL) created by agreement between Sierra Leone and the United Nations and for security reason, it is claimed moved to The Hague. Now the ICC steps in to prosecute President Omar Hassan al-Bashir of Sudan. Three different defendants and three different courts albeit located in The Hague, and by different arrangements.
