Refer Syrian President Bashar al-Assad to the International Criminal Court - The Globe and Mail
clipped from article:
As promised, the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Moammar Gadhafi as well as his two closest lieutenants for alleged crimes against humanity. Now a similar investigation needs to take place on the deadly actions of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad. The United Nations Security Council should now direct the ICC to investigate whether Mr. al-Assad is guilty of crimes against humanity as a result of his government’s violent crackdown against civilians peacefully calling for democratic reform. These Syrians are seeking exactly what the people in Egypt, Tunisia and Libya want: elections, freedom of speech and assembly, and an end to the authoritarian regime.
