...sure the editors here would be happy to entertain your all-encompassing analysis. Kevin Jon Heller "Where was Amnesty International when the Yazidis were massacred and their women raped?" If you used this magical thing called "google," Kumar, you would have been able to find out all by yourself that AI was busy writing endless condemnations of ISIS's treatment of the Yazidi... Try this -- it's called a "search": https://www.google.com/search?q=%22amnesty+international%22+yazidi&oq=%22amnesty+international%22+yazidi&aqs=chrome..69i57j0l2.7487j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 Kumar So,according to Prof Heller, the atrocities committed against Yazidis have been adequately addressed and justice has been done. Grow up...15 Jun Israel’s Idea of an “Independent” Inquiry into the Attack on the Flotilla
...to prevent the worst mass-murder in Canada's history. One might argue that the terms of reference are improperly framed. As I reported by the BBC, they are: (1) to determine how nine Turkish activists died after their ship was boarded by Israeli commandos; and (2) whether the blockade is lawful under international law. One might argue that the tribunal, as constituted, lacks sufficient powers to discharge its duty or afford interested parties procedural fairness. Is it able to subpoena documents and examine witnesses? Are interested parties able to examine witnesses...24 Nov Apparently, I’m a 9/11 Truther (Al-Bahlul Revisited)

...Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Uganda under Idi Amin. The late Harvard Law Professor C.Clyde Ferguson, Jr. (then the US Ambassador to Uganda), having been made aware of Idi Amin's threats to kill the Chief Justice whisked the Chief Justice into the trunk of a US embassy car and had him spirited to the border in the diplomatic vehicle. When the Ugandan border guards wanted to search the car, Ferguson asserted the diplomatic nature of the car to block the guards from opening the trunk. If Chen, through...07 Feb European Utopians

...broad research agenda for me. Sam Morison First, I agree that the relevant offenses aren't strictly limited to aiding the enemy per se. I meant that a looser sense of any factual allegations that might reasonably fit the material support paradigm. Violations of the rule of non-intercourse were construed quite broadly and, as you know, the offense was often charged as simply "violation of the law of war." I think you have to actually read the specifications, which as you suggest complicates matters. So, in terms of methodology, it seems...02 Mar China to Hear More Death Penalty Appeals in Open Court
According to a China Daily report, all death-penalty appeals in China will be held publicly as of July 1, 2006. The move, initiated by the Supreme People’s Court, is designed to decrease the number of wrongful convictions by making the appeals process more transparent. Under Chinese law, city-level intermediate courts initially hear cases that could lead to the death penalty. Provincial-level high courts then hear any appeal that is made, whether by the defense or by the prosecution. The new law affects the high courts, some of which — those...
