This article is an amazing teaching resource. I already built an entire seminar session around it the day it came out. The students really found it serious, lucid and useful: tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

What sort of democracy ransacks bookshops? The Israeli police just pillaged my brilliant friend Mahmoud Muna's wonderful bookshop opposite the American Colony, the best in Jerusalem. Apparently Muna and his nephew Ahmed have both been arrested & marched into court...

Please see our joint statement 👇🏾 ‘All countries who care about human rights and the international rule of law should resolutely oppose the US President’s illegal threats. The world must never again accept a lawless world dominated by brute force that endangers us all.’

Thread: At yesterday's governing council meeting for ISA, a motion was put forward calling for end to genocide, adoption of BDS, and commitment to aid in reconstruction of Gaza. The president blindsided us by declaring the motion out of order, denying any discussion or vote

Israel's new cutoff of humanitarian aid to Gaza as a tactic to pressure Hamas is a resumption of the war-crime starvation strategy that led the International Criminal Court to file charges against Netanyahu and Gallant. trib.al/0Ag5D9u

BREAKING: MSF strongly denounces Israel’s announcement to block aid into Gaza. Humanitarian aid should never be used as a tool of war. Regardless of negotiations between warring parties, people in Gaza still need an immediate and massive scale-up of humanitarian supplies.

This is Hossam’s team, and we are sharing his final message : “If you’re reading this, it means I have been killed—most likely targeted—by the Israeli occupation forces. When this all began, I was only 21 years old—a college student with dreams like anyone else. For past 18

🚨 Reports say that the #ICC Prosecutor is preparing to apply for arrest warrants against perpetrators of atrocities in the #WestBank (but we might not know for sure until they are approved by judges): theguardian.com/law/2025/apr/2…

Those who do not (want to) believe the The Integrated Food Security Phase Classification or all the other humanitarian orgs on the ground that there is #starvation in #Gaza, will they believe Israeli Officers? Glad to provide comments for this important The New York Times report. nytimes.com/2025/05/13/wor…

Incredibly powerful investigation in Dutch newspaper NRC: Seven of the world’s leading genocide scholars — including renowned Holocaust experts — describe Israel’s actions in Gaza as genocidal. And according to them, nearly all of their peers agree.

The Israeli plan to demolish what remains of Gaza’s civilian infrastructure and concentrate the Palestinian population into a tiny area would amount to an abhorrent escalation of its ongoing crimes against humanity, ethnic cleansing, and genocide: @HRW. hrw.org/news/2025/05/1…

“The horrors we are witnessing in Gaza will not stop until the impunity enjoyed by Prime Minister Netanyahu and his government ends. His strategy is abhorrent, it is isolating Israel and weakening its security, and it will fail.” - The Elders 👇

These children, like all children, deserve to live. If this principle dies at the door of Palestinian life, you’re likely afflicted w racist supremacy. Dr. Alaa Al Najjar’s home was targeted w her children inside. She received her children, who burned to death, while on duty.

Hard to post about justice when it seems ever more impossible to achieve in an international system that allows war crimes and genocide to continue unabated, but if you're interested in innovations in hybrid justice, see free chapter with Mark Kersten || @markkersten.bsky.social : fdslive.oup.com/www.oup.com/ac…
