Desmond Tutu Calls for Justice:

Nobel Peace Prize winner explains why African countries should support the International Criminal Court's indictment of Sudanese president Bashir and aid in the issuance of an arrest warrant:

African leaders argue that the court’s action will impede efforts to promote peace in Darfur. However, there can be no real peace and security until justice is enjoyed by the inhabitants of the land. There is no peace precisely because there has been no justice. As painful and inconvenient as justice may be, we have seen that the alternative — allowing accountability to fall by the wayside — is worse.
