Former US Assistant Secretary of State for African Affairs, Miss Jendayi Frazer has lashed at the International Criminal Court, saying ICC has lost its legitimacy and now is widely viewed as an instrument of Western foreign policy used against only Africans.

In her editorial masterpiece in one of the major dailies on Monday, Jendayi who is currently a distinguished service professor at Carnegie Mellon University in the US said significant steps should be taken by Kenya to pull out of the court.

Former top diplomat has asked the US Government under the leadership of President Barrack Obama to marshal the UN Permanent members and call for the drop of International Criminal Court (ICC) cases facing African leaders

“The selection of Kenya cases has apparently been guided by what former Prosecutor Luis Moreno-Ocampo reportedly described as “low hanging fruit,” meaning targeting African countries and individuals unable to resist the ICC’s jurisdiction,” she said.

Certainly, the sharp criticism is a dramatic change in the American view toward the ICC and affirmed that US has used the court to to succumb some African nations.

The court was intended to be cell for the African leaders to remind us of the imperial policy even in the third millennium.

Former US Assistant Secretary of State of African origin has realized the danger of the ICC on the African leaders. Its true that Miss Jendayi Frazer has referred Darfur crisis to the ICC due to her ignorance of the fairness and impartiality of the court at that time.

Discovering ICC as a tool in the western countries is too late. Many African countries have previously noted to the impartiality of the political body.

Several western countries especially US have come to conclusion that ICC||s selectivity and lack of fairness will oppose their strategic interests in Africa. What the west has done is not enough to forgive the idea of the court which was born dead years ago.

Former US Assistant Secretary of State for African Affairs, Miss Jendayi Frazer. I wonder if Ms. Frazer made same comment when on duty. One cannot know about the UN and ICC, and not know that these entities are tools by NATO thugs intended to facilitate plundering and re-establish colonialism -

While they may have fooled several short-sighted African leaders, Colonel Muammar Gaddafi was never fooled: For forty-two (42) years, Colonel Muammar Gaddafi of oil-rich Libya managed to keep Western imperialists noted for plundering the resources of developing nations at bay:

Any African leader (or World Leader) who could put a tight leash on Western imperialists with a history of plundering developing nations and disdain for the prosperity and independence of nations is a Superb Leader, and forever a friend of L'Afrique!
