Now from a strictly hypothetical perspective, no. You don't ignore it. You denounce, condemn and sanction the hell out of the state, but you do not interfere. If it were possible, taking them to a higher court would be the next best option, but sovereign nations are unlikely to (and nor should they) respect the authority of a world court.
The sanctions and condemnations are a way to enact political and diplomatic pressure on a state to capitulate to your demands without resorting to force. Force is just as barbaric, if you're the sort that believes humanity must find ways to co-exist rather than wiping out people simply because their cultural views are different.

You called it this time, its so true. Last time i called it someone had actually brought the nazi's into a discussion about moving the coyotes to Winnipeg. I think it was about 80 posts but this is again a ridiculous comparison.
