Colombia's president has confimed that a Red Cross symbol was worn by a member of the military rescue mission that freed 15 hostages from Farc rebels. Alvaro Uribe said he had apologised to the Red Cross for the error, made by a nervous soldier acting against orders. Rescuers tricked rebels into releasing Ingrid Betancourt and 14 other hostages by posing as International aid workers. President Uribe's acknowledgement followed reports that the Red Cross emblem had being displayed on clothing worn by Colombian intelligence officers during the rescue on 2 July. Mr Uribe said that just one member of the team had worn the emblem "contradicting official orders" because he was nervous about the operation. Falsely portraying military personnel as Red Cross workers is against the Geneva Conventions because it could put humanitarian workers at risk when carrying out missions in war zones. It also undermines the neutrality of the Red Cross.   »  original news ...

July has been a bad month for war criminals. On Monday, July 14, the prosecutor of the International Criminal Court set in motion proceedings against Sudanese president Omar el Bashir for genocide. Exactly one week later Radovan Karadzic--wanted for genocide in the Balkans--was arrested in Belgrade. What does one have to do with the other? To be precise: not much. The International Criminal Court (ICC) is a separate institution from the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia. (ICTY). The latter is a temporary, ad hoc tribunal focused only on the Balkans. The former is a permanent institution with a global remit. Despite these differences, though, Karadzic's arrest may offer a glimpse into how Bashir may one day face justice. It also shows why International war crimes tribunals can be such useful institutions to have around. Karadzic -- the political mastermind behind the ethnic cleansing of Bosnia in the 1990s, including the 1995 massacre of 8,000 Bosnian Muslim men and boys in Srebrenica -- has been on the run from the ICTY for the past thirteen years. So why, all of a sudden, is he finally behind bars? The answer flows from a combination of internal politics and International pressure. In June, the pro-west Serbian President Boris Tadic won a decisive victory against hardliners in parliamentary elections. This victory gave Tadic the political cover to finally purge hard line nationalist elements from the gove ...
