  • Sue Mi Terry
    Sue Mi Terry “Now is not the time to lift sanctions, either. Now, in fact, is the time to double down. If Biden wants to prevent North Korea from acting out, he needs to first provide the government with new incentives to talk-and that means new restrictions Washington can use as carrots. Biden, in other words, needs to take North Korean policy off autopilot and launch a proactive effort to deter Pyongyang. Otherwise, he risks encouraging an already emboldened Kim to stage a major provocation.” 8 hours ago
  • Christopher Cavoli
    Christopher Cavoli “Russians don't have the numbers necessary to do a strategic breakthrough. More to the point, they don't have the skill and capability to do it, to operate at the scale necessary to exploit any breakthrough to strategic advantage. They do have the ability to make local advances and they have done some of that.” 9 hours ago

“The move [Egypt joining South Africa's ICJ genocide case against Israel] is an unbelievable diplomatic blow to Israel. Egypt is the cornerstone of our standing in the Middle East. The connections that Israel has in the Middle East and North Africa today, including with Jordan, the UAE and Morocco, is all a result of what Egypt did 40 years ago. With Egypt joining South Africa now in The Hague, it's a real diplomatic punch. Israel would have to take it very seriously. This is what I have been warning about. It's coming from several directions. Israel has to … listen to the world - not only to the Israeli public opinion asking now for revenge. We have to look overall in the wider picture, in the long-term security of Israel, not only in the next few weeks in Gaza.”

“The ICJ ruling puts a lot more pressure on the US and other Western allies to move on a ceasefire resolution. It makes it a lot harder for the US, along with Israel, to make the case to Western governments that are still very much concerned with international legitimacy, to maintain the idea that Israel is acting within the constraints of international law in Gaza and that it's acting in self-defence.”

“Israeli politicians have already said that they're going to ignore the ICJ order. It is much harder for, particularly, the US and European states including the UK, to ignore the order because they have a much stronger record of holding or supporting the International Court of Justice.”

“The ruling sends a strong message to Israel that the court views the situation as very serious and that Israel should do what it can to perform restraint in carrying out its military campaign.”

“As demonstrated in several cases at the ICTY [International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia], the Yugoslav army and police committed countless war crimes and crimes against humanity in Kosovo, but it found little evidence of genocidal acts. Bringing a genocide case at the ICJ [International Court of Justice] is therefore very unwise.”

“The motives of the comfort women are not financial reparations from the Japanese government, but an apology and acknowledgment of responsibility over the past, and to provide (correct) history education. Such goals are hard to attain through the domestic legal process. No matter what kind of ruling the ICJ [International Court of Justice] decides, it will have to judge whether the comfort women system was in violation of international law, and the testimonies of the victims would remain on the record. That in itself would be meaningful for the survivors.”

“In order for the ICJ [International Court of Justice] trial to take place, the two countries need to come to an agreement. But this looks less feasible at this time. The South Korean government has been focusing on improving relations with Japan and it would try to avoid creating another source of contention. Japan would also prefer not to publicize the comfort women issue on the international stage. Korea will want to stress the issue as a matter of wartime sexual violence and victims' human rights perspective, while Japan will assert the primacy of sovereign immunity and underline all wartime compensation issues were settled through the past bilateral accords.”
