Subject: FW: [foil] Abolish the ICTY  

Prof. Raymond K.Kent: International Criminal Tribunal
for Yugoslavia, an open letter to Kofi Annan

March  2006

Your Excellency,


        I have, over the past few years, written a
number letters to You, especially because you are of
Asante origins and I taught African History for some
twenty-five years at Berkeley.

         For almost five years the International
Criminal Tribunal for Yugoslavia has not managed to
come up with a verdict in the case of Slobodan
Milosevic. This, of itself, is a scandal and a
tell-tale sign that something is radically wrong with
the ICTY.The excuse given was that Milosevic's illness
required postponements but the fact remains that his
health did notcome into question until after the first
three years when he was able to defend himself quite
well. His guilt therefore has not been established by
the ICTY and he has been tried in the media and
through the public advocacy of three prosecutors.
Presumed guilty until he can prove to be innocant of
the charges. A host of professionals from a host of
countries have written professional texts questioning
the ICTY in many ways. The death of Milosevic in his
cell requires --in the name of Justitia that the U.N.
abolish worthwith the ICTY and transfer all the
charges to Zagreb, Belgrade, Sarajevo and Pristina so
that the local high courts can arrive at credible
sentences and prove to be of greater service to the
future of mankind than the farce called ICTY. I hope
that you can rise to the occasiuon.I know that you can
but I do not know if you have the guts to do it.

        Respectfully, Raymond K.Kent, Emeritus
                      History Department,
                       University of California,
                      Berkeley, CA 94720

India can??™t count on Iran for energy: US
 
Press Trust of India
 
Washington, March 11: Recognising India's ???enormous??™ energy needs, the
US has, nevertheless, warned it that Iran was not a reliable long-term
supplier of fuel and advised it to turn its attention to other places
in Central Asia.

"India has enormous energy needs and India is right to look out to the
world to see how it can secure its energy future," Under Secretary of
State Nicholas Burns said yesterday during a presentation to the
'Coalition for Partnership with India' which is being coordinated by US
Chamber of Commerce.

"The only point we have been making is that we don't believe that Iran
is a reliable partner in the long term. So our advice to our friends in
India has been you really can't count on the Iranians to be reliable,"
he said when asked about the India-Pakistan-Iran gas pipeline and
whether it will have any impact on the Indo-US ties.

To meet its energy needs, burns said, "there are many other places
India could look -- Kazakasthan, Turkmenistan, (and also methods like)
clean coal technology and certainly the growing nuclear power sector..."
