What the International Criminal Court gets right
The Philippine Star
|December 03, 2024
It has been popular in conservative circles lately to denounce the International Criminal Court for issuing an arrest warrant for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel, accusing him of war crimes in the Gaza Strip.
But whatever you think of that arrest warrant, a new case underscores why the court is essential.
The chief prosecutor of the court Wednesday requested an arrest warrant for the acting president of Myanmar, Min Aung Hlaing, accusing him of crimes against humanity against that country's Rohingya minority.
I covered the mistreatment of the Rohingya in repeated trips to Myanmar and Bangladesh, where many of the Rohingya fled. "Genocide" is a strong word, but it may be that the world will eventually recognize the 2017 systematic slaughter of the Rohingya as a genocide.
