Mr Bashir was in Johannesburg for an African Union (AU) summit.

June 14th 2015: S.Africa bans Sudan president from leaving after arrest call

[Renew Deal]

1. His departure was predictable.

It would have been almost impossible to keep him there.

2. Something tells me that much like Bush and Cheney he will have to be careful in he future in

picking where he travels.

3. Bush and Cheney can travel anywhere they want

until the ICC actually charges them and issues warrants for their arrests. Unfortunately.

5. I am well aware that they "can" do so but I suspect they will be frugal in their choices of were to

travel for the rest of their lives.

6. Not for legal issues

no one is going to arrest them. They will be circumspect to avoid harassment from protestors.

4. Africans states think the ICC is biased.

It never goes after the big war makers.
