WHO CREATED THE ICC?
* The ICC Statute was adopted in Rome in 1998 by 120 countries after several years of negotiations at the United Nations. 139 countries ultimately signed the ICC Statute, and 96 states had ratified or acceded to it by September 2004. The ICC Statute came into force on July 1, 2002, following the required 60th ratification.
* Support for the ICC has been led by a coalition of America's friends and allies, including all members of the European Union and all members of NATO except the US and Turkey.

Last sentence says a lot, US will continue to be a No1 world policeman. To rearrange to World according to their own model (new world order). Turkey is important geo-strategic partner who control the pump lines from Iraq and Azerbaijan. That’s why the violation of human rights regarding Curds is just a minor problem and they can do what ever their want in their yard. Other nations have limited sovereignty and that the main rule of a new world order. All means are allowed to those who serve the interest of world order, and CNN, BBC, SKY…will do everything to present their “true” as legal one. Or just put the new light on picture from the field. Like recent days in Srebrenica, as example…
In 1999 US and NATO bombed Serbia in order to take control over Kosovo province. One of the key points of the negotiations in Rambuie before the attack was to allow NATO to create a bases and freedom of movement trough Serbia. Serbs did not accept that. On Kosovo they is biggest base of US at the south east Europe at the moment…
For the crimes committed in bombing campaign ( Belgrade TV stations, train to Greece, civilian busses, refugee camps, bridges, few towns in central Serbia…) nobody is responsible. No need to mention mass usage of illegal weapons (cluster, uranium ammunition…)

This is a nation where all citizens have the opportunity to pursue a dream - more so than in ANY other nation (name another nation where recent immigrants have a higher rate of self-sufficiency and success) - and where all who do not give up on that dream can STILL achieve it.

MI blues…if is like that, what will happen if majority of population in New Mexico and California decide to be part of Mexico or independent? At the moment Latin-Americans are majority there. I think that you truly believe in the pictures you see on the screen of your TV and never ask yourselves-is it really like that out there? NATO and Croats destroyed Serb Krajina 1995 and ethnicaly cleaned the land, in 1999 NATO-US bombed Serbia to establish Albanian Kosovo as a new entity...
In 1993, 600 Canadian soldiers -- half of them reservists -- fought a battle in a desolate corner of the former Yugoslavia. Outnumbered and, outgunned by their Croatian foes, they nonetheless fought them to a standstill and forced them to retreat. In the process, they helped uncover evidence of ethnic cleansing by Croatian forces who were determined to evict ethnic Serbs before the Canadians could enforce a shaky UN peace agreement.
The story of their battle, and the physical and mental scars that plagued the soldiers for years after, went largely unreported in Canada. Government and senior military officers, distracted by the Somalia scandal of the same year, did little to put out the story of the largest military action by Canadian troops since the Korean War and the troops returned home to little fanfare or recognition.
Eleven years later, along comes journalist Carol Off with “The Ghosts of Medak Pocket”. The Story of Canada's Secret War, a book that purports to be the never-before-told story of how Lieutenant-Colonel Jim Calvin and the soldiers of 2nd Battalion, Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry fought and suffered.
I am using this opportunity to thanks all of them for defending UN and Serbs in Medak Pocket in Croatia 1993. Hope there are some of them here. CNN was never there but you were.
