A global web of justice is up and running


Luis Moreno-Ocampo International Herald Tribune
Published: June 12, 2006

THE HAGUE Six children walked down a road in the region of Ituri, in Congo. They were on their way to school when a jeep packed with militiamen sped in front of them. Fightersb______①AK-47s ordered the terrified children into the jeep. They were transported to military training camps and forced to learn to fire machine guns. Three weeks later, the children were in the field, killing and being killed.

Thomas Lubanga, leader of one of Congo's most dangerous militias, allegedlyorchestrated[1]crimes like the one described above. In March, the judges of the International Criminal Courti______②an arrest warrant charging Lubanga withconscripting[2]children under 15 as soldiers. A few days later, Lubanga was transferred from Congo to a prison in The Hague.

(1)Lubanga's transfer hints at the promise of a permanent international criminal court rooted in global cooperation.The Nuremberg war crimes trial and thead hoc[3]tribunals for the former Yugoslavia and Rwanda,p_______③the way, testing the viability of a criminal justice system without a state apparatus. But the ICC's predecessors were each limited in scope to a particular territory. The ICC's distinct challenge is to function within a worldwide criminal justice system without a world state.


The Rome Statute establishing the International Criminal Court created a remarkable innovation: an international justice network. The treaty hasgalvanized[4]100 countries, international organizations, nongovernmental organizations and other partners.

(2)Countries have the primary responsibility to prevent and punish atrocities in their own territories and to cooperate with the ICC when it decides to take a case.Intervention by the ICC must be exceptional - it will only step in when states fail to genuinely act.

Supported by an evolving network of cooperation, the ICC is investigating three of the world's gravest situations. The Congo case is ane_______④indication of the potential of the Rome system, while our other twopending[5]cases, Uganda and Darfur, reveal emerging challenges.

Congo referred its own case to the ICC, demonstrating its commitment to cooperating with the court's activities. Lubanga's transfer was the direct result ofc________⑤between the court, the Congolese government, international organizations and ICC member states.

Like Congo, the government of Uganda requested ICC intervention.________________________(在人民和政府的合作下,我们的调查小组在短短9个月内调查了数千起犯罪案件。).We expect our evidenceto show that Joseph Kony and four senior commanders of a militia, the Lord's Resistance Army,perpetrated[6]horrific attacks against people of northern Uganda. For 20 years, the LRA hasa_______⑥children from their homes and schools, forcing boys to kill and compelling girls to kill and to serve as sex slaves.


The arrest warrants against the LRA leadership, which the ICC judges issued in July 2005, have already had an impact. Sudan, which hadharbored[7]the LRA in the past, has voluntarily aGREed to execute the warrants.

(3)Our investigation, Darfur, was initiated as the direct result of the active support of international experts, NGOs and states.After the independent Commission of Inquiry submitted its report to the United Nations, the Security Council passed ar_______⑦referring the Darfur situation to the ICC.
(Darfur 达尔富尔; NGO 非政府组织)


Our investigators are compiling statements in almost a dozen countries other than Sudan. A network of cooperation enables this investigation to advance under the worst of operating conditions.(4)But, ultimately, delivering justice in Darfur necessitates full cooperation by Sudan.


The global impact of the Rome Statute is becoming apparent. Three years ago, 18 judges and Iconverged[8]from the five continents and entered a nascent court in The Hague. Today the Rome system is inm_______⑧.
