The ICC Attempts to Arrest Omar Al-Bashir


Omar Al-Bashir president of Sudan was attending the 2015 AU Summit in South Africa. A court order was given that sought to stop his departure from the country. Even though South Africa is a signatory of the ICC, it has no intention of following ICC court orders. The ANC was firm in its decision recognizing the true motives of the International Crimes Court. It deliberately targets African leaders who do not follow western foreign policy designs.  It seeks to undermine national sovereignty globally and simultaneously increase the legal power of the West. It is obvious that during the Bashir presidency, human rights violations have occurred. A court based in the Hague has no right to control or dictate internal matters of African nations. The only people Bashir should be punished by are the Sudanese residing in that country. The ICC is clearly another tool of imperial conquest masked as organization for human rights.
