Bash1r’s Kenya Visit
Today was Kenya’s big constitutional promulgation ceremony, which is being touted as the biggest day for this nation since independence. A potential headline stealer today (and rightly so) is becoming the arrival and involvement of al-Bash1r in the festivities. He not only came, and not only sat in the VIP section, but released white doves.
WSJ says:
“Kenya’s decision to invite Mr. Bash1r to Nairobi could strain the country’s relations with Western donors. The U.S. and European nations have said that Mr. Bash1r should appear before the International Criminal Court.
On Friday, the panel of three judges handling Mr. Bash1r’s case released a statement noting that Kenya “has a clear obligation to cooperate with the Court.” The judges said they would immediately inform the United Nations Security Council “in order for them to take any measure they may deem appropriate.” The court cannot force states to comply with its directives.”
There is a lot I could say about this, but probably shouldn’t in the venue. Hopefully, you can read between the lines and figure out why this should make America think about our current foreign policy and our involvement in the UN which spends billions making directives it has no power (or intention?) to enforce!
