Double standards of the International Criminal Court,
By Nasser in Al-Quds of Palestine

"We need between 20 to 40 years to enhance democracy in Egypt and the Arab world." -- Boutros Boutros-Ghali, Al-Masry Al-Yom

"Counting on changing people's behaviour by publishing and broadcasting adverts and commercials about [the new traffic law] will not work." -- Salama Ahmed Salama, Al-Ahram

"The news of Egypt's two big clubs Ahli and Zamalek have become more important than those of [Prime Minister] Ahmed Nazif's government." -- Mohamed Amin, Al-Wafd

"The roadmap that the Arab ministers drew requires wisdom in order to save Sudan from external interference that wears the cloak of defending human rights." -- Al-Bayan

"The court's ruling that targets the highest figure and other officials in Sudan is an outcome of policies drawn up by the neo-cons and an alliance of Christian and Zionist groups." -- Fouad Dabbour, Addustour

"Sudan is in need of balanced thinking to reach a solution to the problem because it is not stronger than Saddam Hussein or richer than Libya during the Lockerbie crisis or more important than Yugoslavia during the Bosnian war." -- Abdul-Rahman Al-Rashed, Asharq Al-Awsat
