The prospect of such a court being established whilst the conflict continues does seem unlikely, however. Due to the war-torn status of Syria, another regional country would be required to take on the logistical and fiscal burden of establishing such a court. This would require the consent of that nation and the Syrian government. Given the involvement of the Syrian government and the region’s general implication in the war, any such court would not be considered impartial. As such, the establishment of a Syrian tribunal at this point in the crisis would be considered illegitimate, biased and consequently ineffective.
