UN Secretary General again did not move any further . He should have called for the Security council resolution to activate NATO and asked Gaddaffi to step down immediately . But to get leaders as secretary general is asking too much. Libya now stands in stalemate, where the East in hands of rebels and West in hands of Gaddaffi.
Whatever said, Gaddaffi, actually redeemed himself on the global TV presentation , wherein he invited the UN to investigate the crimes being committed by his forces or the rebels. Again UN did not immediately react and sent thousands of his investigators on fact finding mission.
The best statement came out was from ICC, where the Prosecutor General warned the Libyan power holders to be prepared for getting investigated for possible war crimes and human right abuses , if they would act against its own people.
Though ICC last warrant against Sudan president " Bashir " has had zero impact and he openly traveled to Chad and then to Qatar, where he attended the Arab summit and was well hosted. Did UN had the guts to then expel Qatar out of its membership? Or did UN de recognize the Arab Summit as an organization against Human Rights. None ofcourse. Because UN is a hypocritical weak organization.
Qatar , later won the rights to host Football World Cup. Because Human Rights don't matter to FIFA, money matters.
Atleast one thing is good that ICC is becoming proactive and it should sent jitters down many a politicians and police generals and army generals, who abuse their power regularly for corruption, human rights violation, religious rioting , fake encounters , etc etc
ICC needs to set up a courts in each continent and have a monitoring body armed in each country, which on monthly basis reports openly on the Internet on the conduct of the governments. Atleast this would then be a neutral third party audit on governance. And if there is any misgoverning, then immediate warrants are issued. Thereafter no bureaucrat or politician will have the guts to do any wrong.
UN needs to be revamped. Now, then ever before.
