PhD studies in human rights: Referring Syria to the International Criminal Court
PhD studies in human rights: Referring Syria to the International Criminal Court
CLIP FROM ARTICLE: As David Scheffer points out in a recent op-ed, referral of Syria to the International Criminal Court by the Security Council has already been called for by the High Commissioner for Human Rights and by France.
As things now stand, the Court cannot exercise jurisdiction over Syrian nationals for crimes committed in Syria. But the Security Council can change that situation by a resolution referring the situation in Syria to the Court, as it did with respect to Libya last February.
Professor Scheffer argues for a tailored approach to referral that some may find controversial. He proposes the following:
If, for example, the Security Council gave Assad and his colleagues one week to quit power and leave the country for asylum in, say, Tunisia (or perhaps Russia), the Council would explicitly omit their names from its referral of the Syrian situation to the Court. Such officials would have to demonstrate indefinitely their complete withdrawal from political and military power in Syria in order to qualify for continued omission from the Court’s jurisdiction.[ READ MORE AT LINK]

the free opinion: the secret assad emails
clip from article: Bashar al-Assad took advice from Iran on how to handle the uprising against his rule, according to a cache of what appear to be several thousand emails received and sent by the Syrian leader and his wife.
The Syrian leader was also briefed in detail about the presence of western journalists in the Baba Amr district of Homs and urged to "tighten the security grip" on the opposition-held city in November.
The revelations are contained in more than 3,000 documents that activists say are emails downloaded from private accounts belonging to Assad and his wife Asma.
The messages, which have been obtained by the Guardian, are said to have been intercepted by members of the opposition Supreme Council of the Revolution group between June and early February. [read more at link]

This world needs more people like @KhuloodBadawi
In the newest Israeli “witch-hunt” the dying propaganda machine of zionism has taken an aim on Khulood Badawi, a human rights activist and demands UN fires Khulood Badawi over a ‘false Gaza’ picture
The “State of Israel’s success” solely consists due to a very ingenious propaganda campaign which might have been effective for some decades. Nowadays it is fighting a severe “battle” online itself to sustain the myths it created, while in crescendo the social media create awareness, spread real facts in real time as well while Israel is running behind the technological developments, possibilities but foremost it’s impact.

Who is responsible for the protection of Syrian civilians?
Who is responsible for the protection of Syrian civilians?
clip from article:#SOSHomsNow #Syria Who's responsible? "Principle of " responsibility to protect" could help crystallize international action. ..in theory and practice of international humanitarian law, and is based on the idea that sovereignty is not absolute, but conditioned by other norms and principles. there is no question that international law holds certain crimes to be an affront to the international legal and moral systems. They are called "Mass Atrocity Crimes" and include #Genocide #WarCrimes #CrimesAgainstHumanity & #EthnicCleansing. There is a shared international responsibility to protect civilian populations against those crimes. While a state first and foremost is responsible for protecting its population from thos crimes, the international community has a responsibility to assist the state if it is unable to protect its population from those Mass Atrocity Crimes, and peaceful measures have failed, the international community has the responsibility to intervene to provide such protection. While military intervention should be the last resort, there is no question that other coercive means could and should be used first, including effective and smart sanctions, economic as well as political. Most urgently, humanitarian assistance under Geneva Conventions and Protocols, the ICRC is the main ower authorized to deliver humanitarian assistance in cases such as the Syrian Conflict. Failure by the Syrian Government to allow the ICRC to provide such assistance is in clear violation of those conventions and should trigger international pressure to ensure its access to Homs and other affected Syrian towns. As a first step, the international community, though the UNSC or otherwise, the ICRC should be allowed to carry out its responsibility in protecting civilians in Syria."

clip from article: HATAY PROVINCE, Turkey—Syria's rebel military leader appealed for international support a day after his forces ceded their bastion in Homs to government forces when, according to one rebel commander, dissident fighters "ran out of bullets."United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon called on the Syrian government Friday to give humanitarian workers access to the city, amid reports that the Red Cross was being blocked from entering the besieged district of Baba Amr.
"The images which we have seen in Syria are atrocious," said Mr. Ban. "It's totally unacceptable, intolerable. How, as a human being can you bear this situation?"
Activists accused regime forces of carrying out execution-style killings in Homs following the rebel pullback. The U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights was investigating reports of "a particularly grisly set of summary executions," a spokesman told the Associated Press. [read more at link]

#Syria - Idlib Region Under Assad Attack as Obama Blocks Arms to Freedom ...
Uploaded by Souria2011archives on Mar 3, 2012
Heavy Fire in the Idlib Region of Syria as the brutal Dictator Assad gets "Green Light" from the West to exterminate and kill all pro Democracy protesters. Assad can and will only be stopped by armed military action, whether from outside Syria or from a well armed Free Syria Army inside Syria, but Hillary Clinton and the USA are trying to stop the FSA from getting arms to defend the Civilian population and Assad sees this as a License to Kill everyone who opposes him.
Hillary Clinton and other scummy US Politicians and a cowardly US General in Washington DC just suddenly start babbling about the possibility that "al Qaeda" may be coming to Syria to help overthrow Assad and this is the signal from the Western Powers that Assad can now go ahead and kill as many people as he has to in order to crush the pro Democracy uprising.
----------------------------------
Here is the way the US is stabbing the Syrian Democracy Movement in the Back:
"Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on Sunday warned against the United States arming rebels in Syria because such a move could inadvertently lead to support for Al-Qaeda and Hamas, AFP reports.
Senior leaders of both groups -- which Washington classify as terrorist organizations -- have expressed their support for the loose-knit collection of Syrian rebels who have taken up arms against the regime of embattled President Bashar al-Assad.
US officials, too, have expressed backing for those intent on toppling Assad, and senior lawmakers including Senator John McCain have said it's time to consider arming the rebel groups.
Clinton poured cold water on such action.
"We really don't know who it is that would be armed," the top US diplomat told CBS News during a visit to Morocco, as she noted that Al-Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri has expressed support for the Syrian rebels.
"Are we supporting Al-Qaeda in Syria?" she said. "Hamas is now supporting the opposition. Are we supporting Hamas in Syria?"

the brutal Dictator Assad is now getting a "Green Light" from Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton to exterminate and kill all pro Democracy protesters as Washington is attempting to block weapons and munitions from reaching the civlians of Syria who need guns to defend themselves from the Genocidal Baathist Assad Regime
. Assad can and will only be stopped by armed military action, whether from outside Syria or from a well armed Free Syria Army inside Syria, but Hillary Clinton and the USA are trying to stop the FSA from getting arms to defend the Civilian population and Assad sees this as a License to Kill everyone who opposes him.

EU: Syrian leadership will be held accountable
clip from article: The EU leaders' statement called "once more on all members of the United Nations Security Council, particularly Russia and China, to work together in an effort to stop the violence." It reiterated the EU's support for the Syrian opposition "in its struggle for freedom, dignity and democracy."
The EU leaders debated the withdrawal of their ambassadors from Damascus, but France and Britain remained the only nations in the bloc to decide on such a move.
The EU leaders did not spell out how Assad and officials around him could be put on trial.
The U.N. created a special tribunal in 1993 in The Hague, the Netherlands, to hear cases of grave human rights abuses and crimes of war and genocide committed in the Balkan wars of the 1980. To date it has indicted more than 160 individuals and sentenced about 125. Coincidentally, the EU leaders have just named Serbia _ a country that was central to Balkan wars _ as a candidate for membership in the EU.

Baba Amr became a symbol of resistance to Assad after government troops surrounded it with tanks and artillery and shelled it intensively for weeks, killing and wounding civilians cowering in its ruined buildings.
