The International Criminal Court is the world's first permanent international criminal court, which is established and governed by the Rome Statute. It is located in The Hague, the Netherlands. The adoption of the Rome Statute in 1998 was a historic step, reflecting the determination of the world community to put an end to impunity and to contribute to the prevention of crimes which threaten the peace, security and well-being of the world. The ICC has jurisdiction over the most serious crimes of concern to the international community: genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes committed after 1 July 2002.

BY EMILY ALLEN ANCHOR LAUREN ZIMA The International Criminal Court came out with its first verdict today since it was set up a decade ago. It found Congolese warlord Thomas Lubanga guilty of enlisting child soldiers. Here's some background on Lubanga from the BBC and euronews. "He actively went to the homes and the households and asked them to donate cash or a cow or a child to the war effort. And he was also shown in court on a video galvanizing child soldiers." "Tens of thousands of people died in the fighting that raged across several countries in central Africa. The use of child soldiers less than 15 was a particularly tragic aspect of the war." It took two and a half years for the court to finally crank out a verdict. A CNN reporter points out it's the first case to focus specifically on the issue of child soldiers — saying it sends a message to child soldier recruiters around the world. "It is a war crime to use child soldiers. The definition of that is any child under 15 years old. Monita, it also sets a legal precedent too because there are bigger fish than this man." An international law professor told Al Jazeera one of the ICC's biggest challenges is picking which criminals it will go after. And he said it doesn't have a very convincing explanation of how it makes those choices. "Some of the criticism is focus on Luis Moreno-Ocampo, the chief prosecutor, for focusing on African countries and avoiding places like Afghanistan, Gaza, Iraq and Columbia." The ICC's <b>...</b>

William Zabel is chairman of Human Rights First (formerly the Lawyers Committee for Human Rights), a nonprofit international human rights organization. He has traveled the globe on Human Rights First's behalf, including a 1986 trip to Chile, where he investigated cases involving those who were disappeared under the Pinochet regime. Zabel was a strong advocate for the creation of the International Criminal Court, and he helped support its growth as an effective forum for bringing human rights violators to justice. Zabel also played a key role in the landmark 1967 Supreme Court case Loving v. Virginia, in which the Court declared Virginia's anti-miscegenation statute unconstitutional, effectively putting an end to race-based bans on marriage.

The International Criminal Court is due to receive a suit against NATO over the killing of Libyan ex-leader Muammar Gaddafi. But the Gaddafi family's chances of finding justice in The Hague are all too slim, says journalist James Corbett. In their suit, which cites the "deliberate killing" of a person protected by the Geneva Convention, Gaddafi's family will target NATO's executive bodies and the leaders of its member states, their lawyer, Marcel Ceccaldi, said on Wednesday. "NATO helicopters opened fire on [Gaddafi's] convoy," the lawyer told Agence France Presse. "This convoy did not pose any threat to civilians. It was an operation to eliminate the Libyan leader, planned by the North Atlantic alliance." This would be enough to qualify the incident as "a war crime by Article 8 of the ICC's Rome Statute," said Ceccaldi, who previously worked for Gaddafi's regime and now represents his family. The exact date the complaint will be filed has yet to be announced. The chances of Gaddafi's family succeeding with their law suit can be regarded as "slim to none," independent journalist James Corbett told RT. "I think the International Criminal Court is just an extension of NATO powers' foreign policy," he said, questioning the ICC's entire role in the Libyan conflict. In June, the Criminal Court in The Hague issued arrest warrants for Muammar Gaddafi, his son Saif al-Islam and the former regime's intelligence chief, Abdullah al-Senussi.

Until the advent of the International Criminal Court, however, none of the modern international tribunals had been given jurisdiction over the crime of aggression. But the ICC Statute stipulates that before the Court can exercise jurisdiction over this crime the States Parties must adopt a provision at the Review Conference (scheduled for 2010) setting forth a definition of aggression and the conditions under which the Court could exercise its jurisdiction over it. The ICC Assembly of State Parties has set up a Special Working Group on the Crime of Aggression, whose work is in progress, but the United States has refused to participate in the proceedings.

Joseph Kony is the controversial head of the Lords Resistance Army. Born in 1962 in Gulu, northern Uganda, Kony led the United Holy Salvation Army (UHSA), which slowly evolved into the resistance group LRA. The LRA has been waging a campaign of terror against the people of Northern Uganda since 1987 with the goal of establishing a theocratic government in Uganda that is based on the teachings of the Bible and the Ten Commandments. Kony is one of the world's most wanted men and arrest warrants have been issued by the International Criminal Court for him and four of his commanders. It is estimated the LRA has abducted 20000 children as child soldiers since its rebellion began.

This six-minute micro-documentary explores the tensions between humanitarian NGOs, like CARE and Save the Children, and advocates for international justice. The president of Save the Children, Charles MacCormack, describes his organizations explusion from Sudan by President Bashir after the International Criminal Court charged Bashir with crimes against humanity in March 2009. ICC Prosecutor Luis Moreno Ocampo argues that President Bashir expelled these groups, not because of any real cooperation between the NGOs and his office, but to pressure the international community. Ken Roth, president of Human Rights Watch, calls for a parallel partnership between humanitarian NGOs and the ICC, to prevent collaboration from compromising any group. Leading figures in both the justice and humanitarian movements debate whether dialogue is possible across these lines, raising both practical and ethical questions. The Consultative Conference on International Criminal Justice was held at the United Nations in New York. Conference discussion papers used to frame each session are available for download at internationalcriminaljustice.net Video, audio, session summaries, interviews, articles and a comprehensive conference report will be published on that website and made available to the general public. The Consultative Conference was sponsored by the MacArthur Foundation and convened by the Hauser Center for Nonprofit Organizations at Harvard University.
