A Test on Tribunals
March 31st, 2008 by Amanda
At The Daily Star, Rami G. Khouri writes that the upcoming tribunal over the the assassination of former Lebanese President Rafiq Hariri “will be a historic moment in the modern Arab world” as suspects will be tried “in a court of law convened through a process at the UN Security Council enjoying international legitimacy.”
He affirms that this standard ought to be applied throughout the region, including “the trials of the former Baathist leaders in Iraq” and all other political assassinations in the Middle East.
