The Bush Administration has come under a lot of fire in the press over its backing out of the International Criminal Court. Now the press is discovering what it means to not be protected by the Constitution, as the Washington Post protests a subpoena of one of its reporters by the UN War Crimes tribunal.
I like the idea of an International Criminal Court. I really do. I really think we should all be ready for it.
But given the behavior of the international community regarding the recent Israeli/Palestinian conflict, and looking at some of the nations currently claiming membership on the UN Human Rights Commission … I really wonder whether the rest of the world is any more ready for it than we are.
