I think the world community should do a great deal more than it is doing, and I think it should do it together. I think crimes against humanity and war crimes should be an option to rid the world of really awful dictators- and they should be prosecuted with more zeal and with an even hand. I'd like to see that happen to ALL brutal dictators (even the ones who are our buddies)- not just some, and I'd like to see some prioritisation that isn't merely do to US interests. I think the whole moral justification of the thing is lost when the humanitarian cloak is being thrown over other interests. I'd like to see tithing to the international community on a much larger scale, and I'd like to see it used for education and development. Not the kind of World Bank developments that turn into boondoggles and end up ham stringing a country with crippling debt- but real, honest, development.
