Sean,

How about revising the [[ICC]] article? It sorely needs attention.

For the last year or so, partisans have managed to obscure nearly everything about it. 

What are those guys really up to? How much power will they have? To whom will they be accountable? What is the limit of their jurisdiction? What sorts of cases are the civilized countries likely to refer to them? How will dictatorships and other opponents of freedom and human rights thwart justice by abusing the stated principles and procedures of the "court"?

Why do its proponents favor it? What do they think the ICC will do, that ad hoc tribunals such as those convened by the U.S. have not been able to do?

I guess this could be taken off-list now. Let's either correspond privately, or better yet, on the [[talk:ICC]] page.
