Muslims unhappy UK won't go after Israel officials on secret warrants.

Here is a small social test, some Muslim official from a country accused of war crimes comes over and gets arrested under this same law, you think the MCB would be equally against getting rid of this law?

Britain's flagship Muslim organization on Wednesday attacked a government pledge to reform a war crimes law used to try to arrest visiting Israeli dignitaries, saying the move could hurt Britain's image in the Middle East. The Muslim Council of Britain said it was "deeply disappointed" that the country's foreign minister, David Miliband, promised to change the law so that judges could no longer issue secret arrest warrants against Israeli officials or military officers, saying the move was biased toward Israel. "You appear to be committing the government to the path of selective compliance with the enforcement of international law," the council's Secretary General Muhammad Abdul Bari wrote in a letter to Miliband. "This is surely not in the best interests of our country as it will add a further dimension to the double standards that our government is seen to have in relation to the politics of the Middle East." Britain is one of the European pioneers of universal jurisdiction, a broad legal concept that empowers judges to issue arrest warrants for nearly any visitor accused of committing war crimes anywhere in the world. Spain and Belgium have similar rules.

First of all, the hell is going on with secret warrants? If a judge has the balls to apply universal jurisdiction, make everything public. Second, universal jurisdiction is a concept formed by countries who are punching out of their weight class thinking they have the moral high ground to actually be the world police. It needs to be scrapped or turned on them.
