Putting Qaddafi on trial probably would not have satisfied every Libyan’s feeling of injustice, but it might have helped to instill in Libyans greater respect for the rule of law. Perhaps a trial of Qaddafi’s son, Saif al-Islam, will have this effect.
将卡扎菲诉诸法庭无法满足所有利比亚人的公正感，但能给利比亚人带来更光明的法治精神前景。也许对卡扎菲之子赛义夫（Saif al-Islam）进行审判也能产生这样的效果。果真如此的话，在海牙受审将是他给他的国家带去的最后礼物。
