Sri Lanka to export war crimes

“For now impunity is ruling the day.  So much so, that Sri Lanka is apparently seeking to export its brand of counter-insurgency to other countries.

“Will the Sri Lankan method of dealing with rebellion and insurgency catch on elsewhere? Or will the long arm of international justice give pause to would-be war criminals?

This is pretty much the defining question of international justice these days.”

- Mark Leon Goldberg. See his comment for UN Despatch here.
