Ah, sometimes the diplomatic mysteries surrounding international organisations render them ineffective. It's disheartening to see the human rights of thousands of Sierra Leoneans being violated and the prosecutor of the ICC jets into the country but the main purpose of the visit is unknown. God save us!
