ESIL IG on Peace & Security

Yesterday’s announcement of US sanctions against two more judges of the @IntlCrimCourt represents a further intensification of reprisals against international institutions. Such targeting of judges, as well as prosecutors and UN experts, runs counter to the rule of law and administration of justice.

While waging a murderous campaign in the Caribbean and threatening a war of aggression against Venezuela, the United States has now sanctioned two additional ICC judges for performing their judicial functions in the Palestine situation. Gangsterism across the board.

In this new article, @SBagheriLAW & me consider the #environmental destruction of #Gaza. We argue that the concept of #terraforming warfare gives content to the elements of the war crime in Article 8(2)(b)(iv) of the Rome Statute of the @IntlCrimCourt . academic.oup.com/jicj/advance-a…

All of these people should be alive. This lawless war must stop.

Very much enjoyed chairing the ‘cyber security and economic sanctions’ panel @CanalUGR, organised by the @esil_sedi @ESIL_IGPS, Interest Group on International Law & Technology and the Research Project on the Regulation of Security in Cyberspace of the University of Granada!
