03/03/2007: "Skyline"

From the roof on top of my flat, I can see The Hague's skyline. It is dominated by a view of the Peace Palace. It is a nice, yet dull sight. But after seeing the movies "The Last King of Scotland", about Uganda's Idi Amin, I cannot help but think what the building is used for. And a little further away, today's war criminals are being defended in court by young people like me. Defending people who have been convicted of sending kids to war. Or of other things you hardly think about when doing your shopping for organic vegetables at the store across the street. I'm now enjoying the Moon eclipse (through the clouds as much as I can)... I could have been seeing it clearly with a few friends from my old uni at an event in Monaco, if I'd been a little luckier with my travel plans. Off to Scotland tomorrow...
