"Those who commit crimes, war crimes, genocide, or other crimes against humanity will no longer be beyond the reach of justice. Humanity will be able to defend itself, responding to the worst of human nature with one of the greatest achievements -- the rule of law."
And the definition of "crimes" and "other crimes"?

For the Adobe impaired...Adobe PDF Conversion

To all,
Article 6: Genocide...check
Article 7: Crimes against humanity...check
Article 8: War crimes...check
Hmmmm...where is the list of "crimes"? Or is Kofi doing something similar to what is in the Constitution?
The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes, duties, imposts and excises...
The "crimes" are genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity, just like the "taxes" are duties, imposts and excises.
Maybe I'm just stupid. Any help greatly appreciated.
Think about it...
