Kate Cronin-Furman Oh, interesting point about Eichmann. Even if that argument worked, though, it would only apply to events (now) on the territory of South Sudan. So I remain puzzled about the investigation regarding Kordofan, Nuba Mountains, and Blue Nile. It seems like they would have to be anticipating a Security Council referral, right?
Jens David Ohlin I think the Eichmann argument is particularly strong with regard to allegations of genocide. Although Eichmann is often read as a universal jurisdiction case, for me it is really a passive personality jurisdiction...
