Ugandas's position in the British Commonwealth
I have just heard on Sky news that should Gadaffi be allowed to go into exile in a bid to bring peace back to Libya, Uganda would be happy to give him refuge in exile.
As Uganda is a member of the British Commonwealth surely this goes against the odds of the British position which on the whole would support the view that Gadaffi should face trial for war crimes. If he was to take refuge in Uganda then surely this makes Uganda's membership of the commonwealth untenable.
What to other AB members think?

Hostilities stop in Libya and say 10,000 lives saved...Gadaffi goes into exile and no war crimes charge. Or, Gadaffi holds out, UN,NATO and Arab League argue about what is lawful, should rebels be supplied with arms etc. During this period huge death toll, eventually Tripoli falls and Gadaffi gets shot.....still no day in Court.
Why are our leaders keen to get Gadaffi into court to face war crimes.
A couple of weeks ago, the UN Security Council decided to implement a no-fly zone over Libya, aimed at protecting its citizens. Last week Israeli fighter jets bombed the besieged Gaza several times, killing helpless civilians and children. Israeli jets also invaded the sovereign skies of Lebanon, as has routinely been done before, in violation of international law.
