Did the ICC do the right thing in issuing the warrant for al-Bashir's arrest?

The people of Darur think so:
Darfuris themselves are well aware of how they might be punished for backing the ICC; yet, despite the indictment of two Darfuri rebel leaders along with members of the government in Khartoum, it is hard to find anyone aside from Mr Bashir’s few Arab supporters in the main towns who opposes the court’s action. Justice matters even—perhaps especially—to people who have nothing.
