 Belgium: Anti-Atrocity Law Limited (Human Rights Watch, 5-4-2003)
In addition, the ICC suffers from a jurisdictional regime which requires that, in the absence of a Security Council referral, either the state on whose territory the crimes were committed or the state of nationality of the accused be a party to the statute or consent to jurisdiction.
As the state of territory and nationality will often in practice be one and the same state, and that state may well not be a state party, many future atrocities may be outside of the court’s reach.
Everyone agrees that Belgium should be a court of last resort for atrocity victims, not a dumping ground for political grievances.

 News no. 9154 from www.uruknet.info :: informazione dall'Iraq occupato :: news from occupied Iraq - ch
War dissolves restraints on government power, and tends to concentrate power in the executive branch, whether headed by a monarch, president, or military leader.
But it must not be forgotten that every government, our own not excepted, is capable of committing atrocities of that variety — if they are emancipated from law and permitted to consolidate power.
One such was iconoclastic lawyer Clarence Darrow, who — unlike the Bryce Commission — went to France in an attempt to validate the stories of German brutality.

 MY FAVORITE ATROCITY STORIES [Free Republic]
Atrocity stories are all written in an overwrought, melodramatic style: the idea is not so much to state facts as to construct a narrative, complete with a plot, characters major and minor, and those signature touches that add color and enthrall the critics.
Amen and the atrocities have been committed on all sides involved IMHO and which sin is greater then the others, IMHO there all the same.
This sentence seems almost incomprehensible, until you really begin to think about it: after all, with the Serbs gone, witnesses to Serb atrocities would have nothing to lose and everything to gain (including some kind of material reward) by testifying about these alleged acts of brutality.

 End the Atrocity in East Timor
With enough energy and commitment to change Western policies, which we should be doing, there is good reason, I think...that one of the world's major atrocity stories can be brought to an end: that the people of East Timor can enjoy their inalienable right of self-determination, perhaps in less than a thousand years.
We are, I think, at an important turning point in this case.
There were of course more particular reasons for the West to lend its hand to the new atrocities as the Indonesians invaded East Timor.

 Atrocity - Progressive Death Metal
The first work by Atrocity as their simplest and most direct carries a primal nature of opposition to the motifs bearing elements of its concept, a clumsily taped-on justification about drugs and death.
Review: Zealously rudimentary and violent death metal forms its essential ideals within the space of raw thunderous power chords in architectural assembly of connective phrasing concluding in arduous, tense, nihilistic tonal acclimatization through mood manipulating atmosphere in chromatic, shuddering conclusive riffing.

 Oxford Scholarship Online: The Atrocity Paradigm
Intermediate between stoicism and utilitarianism, the atrocity theory treats both wrongful willing and harm as essential components of evils but finds neither all wrongful willing (but only what produces intolerable harm) nor all intolerable harm (but only what issues from wrongful willing) to be evil.
On the atrocity theory, the nature and severity of harm, rather than degrees of perpetrator culpability, distinguish evils from ordinary wrongs.
Hence, political activists, including feminists, should prioritize addressing genuine evils (such as war rape) over eliminating such inequities as the arbitrary exclusion of women from certain occupations.

 The Atrocity Archives by Charles Stross - an infinity plus review
Like much of his fiction it suffers somewhat from a tendency to lose itself (and readers) in long expository passages, but here this quirk is kept under better control and only interferes with the concluding chapters, where the exposition rolls out torrentially, the author barely able to contain himself any longer.
Stross seductively creates an entire secret history of international intelligence agencies working to keep the other levels of reality from spilling out into everyday life -- or using their knowledge for the advantage of their government.
Stross closes off with an insightful and thought-provoking essay on the links between horror and espionage fiction, concentrating on Deighton and H.P. Lovecraft, the two most obvious influences at work in The Atrocity Archives.
