Miss 5 is playing 'overthrow the government'

Main needs to know that this just happened

This. I suspect we'll get a pretty bland 'uphold all treaty obligations' order with very little bite but I'm not at all discounting the prospect that no orders will be made at all. I'm still not convinced on urgency.

FWIW, my read on this. For reasons that others have raised, the ICJ would be better off taking a clear position that plausibility at the provisional measures phase encompasses rights *and* claims.

Also couldn't an airbender just steal all the air away to snuff out a fire? Fires need oxygen. Maybe I just should have stuck with the cartoon.

Re Judge Donoghue's BBC HARDtalk interview: I realize this won't satisfy many people, but there is a difference between saying (1) that the ICJ did not decide that claims of genocide are plausible (what she said) and (2) that the Court decided that such claims are NOT plausible.

this is so fucked up

Remember the ICJ is not bound by it's decision on provisional measures however you decide to interpret it. Nor is it bound by the extrajudicial musings of one of its former officers. So while this will cause a huge stir, legally
it's irrelevant.
