Weird take. My initial reading suggests that the ICJ mostly found Russia guilty, i.e of funding terrorism and failing to prevent racism . https://www.icj-cij.org/sites/default/files/case-related/166/166-20240131-sum-01-00-en.pdf
I hate how political the ICJ is becoming. It used to be about arresting African leaders.
๐ค uhh I believe you're thinking of the ICC
I'm talking about the Hague, if you're not kidding
Not kidding, other than making a nerd-shit technical point.
Both the ICJ and ICC are located in The Hague. The ICC is the one with the reputation for excessive focus on Africa and the one the U.S. has legislation against (The "Hague Invasion Act").
Okay so the ICJ is the part that's more for negotiating UN shit?
Countries are the parties in the ICJ, which dates to the founding of the UN and includes almost every country (if not every country, period). One country has to bring an action against another (see South Africa's case against Israel). The subject matter can be criminal or civil -- I think most ICJ cases have been the latter, think territorial or fishing rights disputes.
The ICC was founded in 2002, a bunch of major countries (including the U.S., Russia, and China) aren't signatories, and it (not specific countries) prosecutes individuals for international crimes (so no civil disputes).
if not every country, period
Pretty much, yes. Article 93 makes all UN members parties to the court's statute.
What if I told you politics is a thing here too
I would ask you why you are quoting the Morpheus image macro aloud and missing obvious sarcasm in 2024
What If I told you that writing something in text does not count as quoting it aloud? ๐ค
It was a joke I wasn't going for epic pwnage
What If I told you that Morpheus has pilled me and I will now start all my comments with "what if I told you"?
What If I told you I'm reconsidering this joke already?
What If I told you to stay the course and stfu.
What If I told you that's understandable and to have a nice day?
What if I told you I just banned them from Hexbear for being a weirdly hostile little shit?
What If I told you that I don't really think their comment was worthy of a ban?
What if I told you there were more in the mod log?
What If I told you that I appreciate our moderator vanguard keeping an eye out.
they have a history
What If I told you I didn't know that but in that case good shot.
