This discussions was a bit too sanitized and also not very representative of the South African narrative. Great discussion again Sizwe but there is a lot that was not touched or deliberately avoided and in a way explains the soft panel brought to the studio. The SA government is on recording stating its position of displeasure with the ICC through the Minister Pandor, if South Africa should leave the ICC the US should be the last nation to have an opinion as they are not part of the Rome statute and have themselves threatened the ICC prosecutors when they were investigated for war crimes in Afghanistan and Iraq. Our BRICS partners are not part of ICC and SA shouldn’t be too.

If the people feel the law is not for their benefit, it means justice is not seen to be done. Therefore, remove yourself from this nonsense. ICC is no different from the IMF or the World Bank.

The ANC of now has no synergy, no will on implementation and their coherency is always questionable.

The outside influences established during the Berlin Conference, combined with the Rome Statute, enable aggressors who are not subject to the ICC's jurisdiction to evade accountability for their involvement in war crimes. This leads to a situation where those with overwhelming influence escaping scrutiny and prosecution. Despite this, the charge against Putin for creating war in Ukraine is simply put forward differently from causes in creation of war in Syria, Iran, Sudan and other parts of the world where children suffer and remain suffering from such war crimes that are irrevocably not the same. The architects of such instabilities, and violence, remain still at large, highlighting the double standards and the hypocrisy prevalent in those protected through possession of high places simply as a result of self interest. The ambiguity of the situation only further exacerbates the problem especially when choosing to or, not, those overarching matters connected to legal, political and diplomatic navigations that are appealingly skewed according to one’s interpretation of the narrative.
