Des dizaines de milliers de personnes dont des enfants—jugées sur leur seule couleur de peau comme pouvant être des migrants—sont arbitrairement enlevées et abandonnées dans le désert chaque année.
For Dutch speakers, I highly recommend this article.
It's very detailed.
They also give the example of Timothy Hucks, an #American guy from New York whose crime is to be black. Timothy simply left his flat in Morocco to buy some booze. He got abducted by Moroccan security forces, who decided that, no, he is not American, and dumped him far in the desert with others—all black people.
Here, the @EUCommission resembles the worst multinational corporations — trying to evade its responsibilities by simply subcontracting its human right violations.
Several hundreds of MILLIONS € are being spent on this.
An International Court of Justice ought to look into this.
As the Dutch newspaper Trouw wrote this morning, this is only the first article on this topic.
More will come.
ICC is seeking an arrest warrant against Netanyahu and the defence minister of Israel. Finally, someone is taking a stand for Palestine and stopping the war!
The chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court said May 20 he is seeking arrest warrants for leaders of Israel and Hamas, including Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, over actions taken during their seven-month war.
Israeli government is now curtailing the right to freedom of speech in the country to prevent the broadcasting of the reality of genocide. Not surprised now!
Israeli officials seized a camera and broadcasting equipment belonging to The Associated Press in southern Israel on May 21, accusing the news organization of violating a new media law by providing images to Al Jazeera.
At the recent @w3c member meeting in Hiroshima 🇯🇵, @simone - new W3C Security Lead - outlined a three-pillar approach to security: developing security standards, verifying those standards, and guiding #developers to create a secure web.
The world is now seeing how we are manipulated to see what they want us to see. Who THEY decide are the “enemy” and who isn’t. When most of the world is watching, and not agreeing, they highlight themselves. #hypocrisy#warcrimes#humanrights
@meganL I did file a #HumanRights complaint & won a small settlement(which I donated to Legal Aid society here) for that past contract work nightmare. #Disabled folks who can still work - face a lot of #discrimination by employers.
A lesbian couple in Japan say conditions for them were so bad in their home country that Canada has granted them refugee status. Learn why they applied for asylum - and what this says about the state of LGBTQ rights in Japan - in our latest.
Actualizing Human Rights: Global Inequality, Future People, and Motivation by Jos Philips, 2020
Taking a perspective from moral and political philosophy, the book focuses on two challenges to human rights that have until now received little attention, but that need to be addressed if human rights are to remain plausible as a global ideal.
“Forced displacement is a grave crime that is negatively impacting the lives of over a million civilians, most of whom are women and children. As it is being carried out methodically and extensively, it is considered a crime against humanity and a war crime, and is included in the crime of genocide that Israel is committing in the Gaza Strip.”
Ottawa also cited the lack of legal marriage in Japan for same-sex couples as a reason to certify the couple as refugees, noting the couple was denied the benefits given under the Japanese system to those in opposite-sex marriages.
The Rwandan government has barred Clementine de Montjoye, a senior researcher in Human Rights Watch’s Africa division, from entering the country, prompting accusations that officials are seeking to dodge independent scrutiny just weeks before the UK government is due to send asylum seekers there for the first time.
If you got upset at me for pointing out that more people died of Covid under Biden than Trump, in large part because Biden rolled back common sense restrictions that were in place under Trump...
Then you'll hate me pointing out that Trump introduced a 25% tariff on Chinese EVs, and Biden is upping that to 100% tariff.
Until we can call out #humanrights violations anywhere, I think we'll continue to fail to address either #climate or historical injustices. Giving one country a pass because they produce more #EVs or have more solar panels is merely kicking the can down the road.
