ICC was: Cuba...

[Michael Pugliese]

Michael Pollak>...As I understand the ICC, it  wouldn't prosecute the 
war  crimes of any
nationals whose courts were  willing to prosecute them  themselves.  
This is
one of the key differences  between the ICC and the court  that has
jurisdiction over Yugoslavia.   The latter refuses to allow  
Yugoslavia's
successor states to try their  own.

   Nope, both Serbia and Croatia (not in the rump Yugo) have in the 
last few months begun to put on trial, low level war criminals.

BELGRADE -- The Truth and Reconciliation Commission, Yugoslavia's 
answer to the U.N. war crimes tribunal, is about to hold its first 
hearings in a process organizers acknowledge is likely to produce only 
partial truth and no reconciliation.

Nicosia, Cyprus -- Former Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic 
avoided an international embargo by setting up front companies and 
offshore bank accounts in Greece and Cyprus to buy military equipment 
to continue his wars in Bosnia and Kosovo, according to a recent 
report by the international war crimes tribunal.
