#Ecocide [podcast] 🎧 - The activists who lobbied to have ecocide included in the Rome Statute will have to rely on ICC’s provisions that categorize environmental crimes as war crimes or crimes against humanity. www.justiceinfo.net/en/157358-ec... #InternationalCriminalCourt #EnvironmentalJustice

It seems we just bombed some residential buildings in an attempt to kill a former diplomat who was trying to facilitate negotiations. A civilian trying to *end* hostilities, surrounded by other civilians in their homes. We are completely lost.

Saif al Islam Gaddafi, son of the former dictator Muammar Gaddafi, wanted by the ICC, has been murdered in #Libya. #intLaw www.justiceinfo.net/en/155092-ga...

Thanks for having me on and bringing attention to this critical impunity gap

Initially this episode was supposed to focus on the complaint we filed in Argentina in mid Dec & UN reform & impact on documentation bodies. But then last month the Islamic Republic killed thousands of protesters in just two days… Without meaningful accountability cycles of violence will continue.

Highly recommended.
