The ICC issued a warrant for this a while ago, but this Wednesday officially ordered the arrest of Sudan president Omar al-Bashir, on charges of war crimes and crimes against humanity, and for the large part he played in the rape, torture and murder of those in Darfur, according to the New York Times.

FINALLY. Wanted, by the International Criminal Court: Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir, on charges yet to be named (but we all know what they are).

The situation surrounding Sudan’s president Omar al-Bashir should be referred to as our world’s double standard. While G8 nations hunt ruthless autocrats in Europe and Asia, war-torn nations of our world’s forgotten continent are treated like unwanted pests.
