New @opiniojuris by me: "The African Union (Rightly) Endorses Pure Sovereignty in Cyberspace." The @_AfricanUnion's new communique on how international law applies in cyberspace is a blockbuster. But will it be taken seriously by the West? opiniojuris.org/2024/02/05/t… @RussellBuchan

I really wonder where's the media firestorm over this, this is a scandal of humongous proportions. Literally cutting humanitarian assistance to a people dying of hunger, whom the International Court of Justice just said are plausibly being genocided.
If we become numb to our leaders committing the most morally reprehensible actions imaginable, we become monsters ourselves.
BREAKING| The European Commission says it will suspend funding to UNRWA until the end of February over Israel's allegations against the agency.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The EU Commission explicitly did not suspend its funding. All it did is issue a short&ambiguous press release saying that they were "reevaluating" future funding pending a request for an audit of UNRWA. No payments are planned until the end of February.

On the Ugandan judge on the ICJ: Judge Julia Sebutinde is an Evangelical Christian. The church she attends (or used to attend?) adheres to a Christian Zionist doctrine. I am not sure how much that will influence her. I attended the same high school she and her husband went to
