  1. Hours after a former International Criminal Court judge won the Nobel Peace Prize, Trump's administration sanctioned the COURT ITSELF. When you can't win the peace prize, apparently the next best thing is trying to unplug the courthouse. #InternationalJustice

  2. CW: CW: Death penalty, executions, state violence, torture, war crimes, authoritarianism

    I have worked in human rights and war crimes investigations. I know what state-sanctioned cruelty looks like. I know the language perpetrators use to justify it, the machinery that makes it possible, and the excuses they construct when the world finally comes asking questions.

    The death penalty is barbarism. Making it a public spectacle is barbarism with a propaganda budget.

    It is the state declaring that a human being can be reduced to an object lesson, that killing can be entertainment, that the deliberate destruction of human dignity deserves an audience and applause.

    This is what authoritarian regimes do. This is what we condemn in North Korea and Iran. This is the kind of state conduct that belongs in human rights reports, in evidence dossiers, in the historical record of regimes that confused absolute power with the right to do absolutely anything.

    And now we are supposed to watch the United States contemplate this road under Hegseth?

    You do not get to preach civilisation while staging barbarism. You do not get to invoke the rule of law while turning human beings into props for state violence. You do not get to call it justice simply because the people committing it wear uniforms and the flag behind them is familiar.

    I have spent years working with the realities of human rights abuses and war crimes. I have no patience for the convenient fiction that atrocities become less atrocious when committed by the people who claim to represent the good guys.

    That is precisely the distinction we must refuse to make.

    If the United States crosses this line, the stain will endure. It will outlive the politicians who authorised it, the officers who implemented it, and the propaganda that attempted to dress it up as strength. Every person who knowingly orders, facilitates, or carries out unlawful acts must understand that power is temporary, evidence has a habit of surviving, and accountability is not extinguished by political convenience.

    The hunt for accountability must never end in vengeance. It must end in evidence, due process, and justice. No immunity by rank. No exemption by nationality. No convenient amnesia when the perpetrators happen to be our own.

    And perhaps this is one reason the US hostility towards the International Criminal Court matters so much. The ICC exists to prosecute individuals for genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes, and the crime of aggression, within its jurisdiction. Its existence poses an uncomfortable question to powerful states: what happens when the people accustomed to judging others find themselves answerable to the same principles?

    Human rights are not a membership card for the morally respectable. International law is not a weapon to be used exclusively against one's enemies.

    If we condemn state terror in Tehran or Pyongyang, we must condemn it in Washington, too. Otherwise, we are not defending universal principles. We are merely defending our preferred perpetrators.

    And I refuse to do that.

    No civilised society needs a public execution to prove its strength. No genuine justice requires an audience for a killing. And no flag, uniform, office, or claim of patriotism can turn barbarism into virtue.

    I have seen what happens when people convince themselves that the rules do not apply to them.

    I will not look away. I will not make excuses. And I will not confuse the power to kill with the right to call oneself just.

    TITLE: ICC Charges More Taliban Leaders for Persecuting Women

    Source: DW- top stories

    The International Criminal Court disclosed more details Monday about the arrest warrants against two Taliban leaders, while also issuing two more arrest warrants. The four Taliban leaders are accused of crimes against humanity through the persecution of women, girls, and the LGBTQ+ community in Afghanistan since taking power in 2021. The Taliban limit women's access to jobs and education beyond sixth grade, as well as barring them from most...

  7. CPI, souveraineté et impunité impériale

    La non-ratification du Statut de Rome par Israël ou les États-Unis n’exclut pas automatiquement la compétence de la CPI : lorsque des crimes présumés sont commis sur le territoire palestinien, la compétence territoriale de la Cour peut s’appliquer. Sanctionner les juges et ceux qui les assistent, c’est transformer la souveraineté en privilège d’impunité. #ICC #InternationalJustice #Palestine #InternationalLaw #WarCrimes…

  13. @InternetDev #France #Allemagne #Italie #Pologne #Roumanie #Hongrie #Autriche #Germany #Italy #Poland #Romania #Hungary #Austria #Deutschland #Italia #Polska #România #Magyarország #Österreich The problem with international justice is simple: the ICC can issue arrest warrants, but states decide whether to enforce them. In practice, sovereignty often outweighs legal obligation, turning “cooperation” into a promise that can be ignored when politically convenient

  14. @unijena 4/4
    Darum die zentrale Frage: Wie kann das Völkerrecht wirksam bleiben, wenn es im Ernstfall auf die Mitwirkung eben jener Staaten angewiesen ist, deren politische Interessen oft gegen die Durchsetzung sprechen? Und wie würden Sie diese Asymmetrie angehen?
    #InternationalJustice #HumanRights #CPI

  15. @unijena 1/4
    Die eigentliche Schwäche der internationalen Strafjustiz liegt nicht nur in der CPI selbst, sondern in ihrer strukturellen Abhängigkeit von souveränen Staaten. Die Haftbefehle der Cour bleiben oft rechtlich gültig, aber praktisch folgenlos, solange Staaten ihre Kooperation politisch selektiv handhaben.

  17. La souveraineté des États contre la justice de la CPI

    La CPI peut ordonner des mandats, mais ce sont les États qui les exécutent — ou les ignorent. Comment la prétendue “obligation” de coopération se dissout‑elle dans la pratique souveraine des États parties ? #CPI #ICC #InternationalJustice #ONU #UN Le Statut de Rome impose aux États parties de coopérer pleinement avec la CPI, notamment en exécutant ses mandats d’arrestation ou de remise.

  18. Je hoeft geen fan van het Iraanse regime te zijn (ik ben dat in elk geval niet) om dit tóch te begrijpen: independent.co.uk/bulletin/new.

    De Nederlandse overheid is hartstikke medeplichtig aan wat er komende nacht (hopelijk niet) gaat gebeuren, nadat zij bijvoorbeeld 250.000 rode lijners (minus minstens 1 huichelaar: Rob Jetten) compleet negeerde en internationaal recht aan haar laars bleef lappen. Dit krijg je als je selectief gaat shoppen.

    Het is ook nog eens een vrijbrief voor andere malloten. Zoals voor Putin - om Oekraïne plat te gooien.

  19. @vigilantiaOSINT : I don't know the book.

    But I believe to have a reasonable impression of what is going on in the Middle East and how hypocrite European countries are supporting Israel's genocides - because they fear economic sanctions imposed by Donald Trump (and/or the US leaving NATO), and they want to continue trading with Israel.

    Most EU countries are complicit to genocide and other warcrimes.

    I realized living together needs rules to live by
    Without rules and agreements living peaceful or work good together isn't possible

  22. If the U.S. leadership continues to echo Putin’s imperial fantasies and undermine international law, consequences will follow. History is clear: those who enable or legitimize war crimes are eventually held accountable — including in The Hague. #RuleOfLaw #InternationalJustice #Ukraine #Democracy

  24. The attached screenshots from the DShRG Rusich (Diversionary-Assault Reconnaissance Group) Telegram channel are not just horrific imagery; they are primary source evidence of the conflict's darkest reality. The first image celebrates the desecration of the dead. The second is an open call for war crimes with a cryptocurrency bounty, turning atrocity into a commodity. This is the reality of the war criminals. The logical question for any strategic analyst is: What signal does a proposal like the Trump plan's Amnesty for War Crimes send to those planning the next war? The inclusion of a clause for general amnesty for all parties and a waiver of future claims means that war criminals are given a chance to walk free. This proposal effectively closes the book on accountability and preempts future investigations. It is a green light for impunity, undermining the foundational principle of international justice. #WarCrimes #AmnestyForWarCriminals #Geopolitics #Ukraine #Russia #InternationalJustice
