ICC opens
The world's first permanent international criminal court opened at The Hague yesterday when its 18 judges took their seats on the bench of global justice."Without justice, there can be no lasting peace," the court was told by Kofi Annan, the United Nations secretary general.

...The US has already signed agreements with 24 nations ensuring immunity for its civilians or soldiers to ICC prosecution for complaints lodged in those countries, while Congress has empowered President Bush to use "all means necessary" to free Americans taken into the court's custody.

hmmm..."All means necessary". I wonder what that means?
