“Whatever one thinks of the theocratic dictatorship in Iran, the US-Israeli attacks are a clear violation of the foundational principle of the postwar legal order, which is the prohibition on the use of force except in self-defense.” — @reedbrody.bsky.social, War Crimes Prosecutor, DAWN Board Member

"The U.N. Charter is not ambiguous," says war crimes prosecutor @reedbrody.bsky.social. "President Trump has presumptively committed … the international crime of aggression, as he did in Venezuela and just as Vladimir Putin did in Ukraine." https://www.democracynow.org/2026/3/2/iran_reed_brody

@reedbrody.bsky.social : "Whatever you think of the dictatorship in Iran these strikes are a clear violation of the foundational principle of the post war legal order"

@reedbrody.bsky.social : "President Trump here has presumptively committed the international crime of aggression, just as he did in Venezuela last month and just as Putin did in Ukraine"

#ICE pulling out of #Minneapolis is proof that resistance works, and the only thing standing between the US and a Trump-imposed dictatorship is resistance

#Portugal voted. Democratic candidate, António José Seguro, elected President of the Republic -getting around 70% of the vote, smashing extreme-right candidate! #Democracy wins!!!!

Mi análisis del proceso penal contra Nicolás Maduro en NY. La captura mediante uso de la fuerza contraviene la Carta de la ONU y abre debates complejos sobre jurisdicción extraterritorial, inmunidad de jefes de Estado y límites al uso de la fuerza. 👉 www.df.cl/df-mas/perso...

“…the former president of the Philippines, Rodrigo Duterte, is facing trial at the International Criminal Court in The Hague for doing exactly what President Trump and Secretary Hegseth have done: killing suspected drug dealers without due process.” War crimes prosecutor @reedbrody.bsky.social

🇺🇸 “Trump has taken ‘the war on drugs’ and tried to convert it into an actual war.” @reedbrody.bsky.social calls out the boat strikes in the Caribbean as premeditated murder, not acts of war. More in #F24Debate ➡️ f24.my/Bb73

The US is complicit in the crimes in #Gaza. The bombs that destroy Palestinian homes & schools & hospitals are American bombs. Israel's campaign of extermination is being carried out with American political, financial & diplomatic support support.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jVY7eY12voI&t=23s

“Punishing ICC judges and prosecutors for doing their job — indicting alleged Israeli war crimes — is classic obstruction of justice. Under Article 70 of the ICC Statute, Trump could be prosecuted for it.” — @reedbrody.bsky.social, War Crimes Prosecutor and DAWN Board Member

#Niger “Bazoum has been cruelly+unlawfully locked away for 2 y: w/o charge/trial, unable to speak to his children, supporters, lawyers. Despite clear rulings from int’l courts+UN demanding his release, he remains hostage of a military junta using him as a human shield” www.hrw.org/news/2025/07...

“We live in a lawless and dangerous world when the US president, on a whim, bombs Iran in violation of the UN Charter — no Security Council approval, no self-defense — and NATO Secretary-General praises ​this crime of aggression as a ‘decisive action no one else dared to do.’” @reedbrody.bsky.social

Nicaragua Is in the Grips of Another Dictatorship, Decades After Sandinista Revolution: Reed Brody

“¿Será el derecho internacional otra víctima enterrada bajo los escombros de Gaza, o podemos juntos fortalecerlo y darle una legitimidad renovada?" El abogado estadounidense Reed Brody, sobre la impunidad israelí, la complicidad y la inacción www.eldiario.es/internaciona... @reedbrody.bsky.social

“Imagina un hombre en plena matanza que pide al tendero (que sabe lo que está haciendo el asesino): 'necesito más municiones'. Y el de la tienda se las vende, pero le dice 'cuidado con cómo las usas' Esto es lo que pasó con Israel y EEUU una y otra vez" ENTREVISTA⤵️ www.eldiario.es/internaciona...

En 2018 hubo más de 300 muertos en Nicaragua durante las protestas contra el proyecto de reforma pensional. El ejército tuvo mucho que ver en eso, dice hoy en "Y esto no es todo" @reedbrody.bsky.social, uno de los expertos de las Naciones Unidas. Óiganlo aquí: www.youtube.com/watch?v=GVw0...

Full @democracynow.org interview with war crimes prosecutor and DAWN Board Member @reedbrody.bsky.social, on why DAWN formally asked the International Criminal Court to investigate Biden, Blinken and Austin for complicity in Israeli war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.

The U.S.-based rights group DAWN has urged the ICC to investigate Joe Biden, Antony Blinken and Lloyd Austin for “aiding and abetting” war crimes in Gaza. "These officials were aware … that Israel was committing these crimes," says war crimes prosecutor @reedbrody.bsky.social .

The question now is whether the ICC, and with it the promise of international justice, will be yet another victim buried in the rubble of Gaza www.aljazeera.com/program/quot...

“ #Ortega y Murillo han consagrado su poder absoluto sobre la judicatura, el legislativo y el aparato electoral, pueden suspender los derechos y desplegar al ejército y la ‘policía voluntaria’. La sentencia de muerte para el Estado de derecho en #Nicaragua”. elpais.com/america/2025...

#Nicaragua’s grotesque Constitutional reforms sound the death knell for the rule of law and basic freedoms. #Ortega & Murillo can suspend all rights, call in the army for police actions, and deploy so-called ‘voluntary police’ as enforcers. www.straitstimes.com/world/nicara...

In #Niger, president Mohamed #Bazoum has now spent over 550 days as a hostage of the military #junta. His lawyers say that his detention is setting a dangerous precedent and have launched a global campaign to have him released. My interview with his lawyer @reedbrody.bsky.social: rfi.my/BMSA.X

40 years ago, Ortega used my report to get the ICJ to condemn US crimes in #Nicaragua . Now I’m investigating HIS alleged crimes for the UN. www.dw.com/es/reed-brod...

Washington has largely moved on from the campaign to free #Niger President Bazoum. US human rights activists Jeffrey Smith and @reedbrody.bsky.social are on a mission to get the Trump administration on board. My latest for Jeune Afrique's The Africa Report: www.theafricareport.com/374685/free-...

"I have come to the view that the Columbia University administration has created such a toxic and hostile environment for legitimate debate around the war in Israel and Palestine that I can no longer teach or conduct research at Columbia." Full statement here: drive.google.com/file/d/1i4cO...

It took 41 years, but the long arm of the law caught up to #Bouterse before he died. Thanks to the victims’ families who never gave up, and the fierce independence of the #Suriname judiciary, Bouterse will go down in history as a convicted mass murderer. www.straitstimes.com/world/surina...
