ICJ P2S1 https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cjerjzxlpvdo 1. ICJ Ruling: - The UN's International Court of Justice (ICJ) declared Israel's occupation of Palestinian territories illegal under international law. - The court called for Israel to end its occupation of the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and Gaza Strip as soon as possible. 2. Key Points: - Israeli settlements in occupied territories deemed illegal - Israel's presence in Gaza still considered occupation due to effective control - Court called for evacuation of settlers and payment of reparations to Palestinians - Israeli policies described as "systemic discrimination" and de facto annexation - ICJ advised other states to avoid actions that maintain the current situation 3. Implications: - Advisory opinion, not legally binding, but carries significant political weight - First time ICJ has ruled on the legality of the 57-year occupation - May influence future UN resolutions and international negotiations 4. Reactions: - Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu rejected the ruling, calling it "a decision of lies" - Palestinian leadership welcomed the decision as a "historic victory" 5. Context: - Separate from ICJ case accusing Israel of genocide in Gaza - Occupation began after 1967 Middle East war - Approximately 700,000 Israeli settlers in West Bank and East Jerusalem

Gender in international politics https://www.foreignaffairs.com/world/global-assault-women-politics-linda-robinson 1. Declining women's representation: - Women occupy only 27% of world's legislative seats - Number of women leading countries has sharply declined in the past year - Rate of increase in women legislators has stalled globally 2. Violence and threats against women politicians: - Almost half of women legislators have received violent threats - Physical violence against women in politics is rising globally - Notable cases: attacks on Nancy Pelosi's husband, attempted kidnapping of Gretchen Whitmer 3. Online abuse and harassment: - Women politicians face disproportionate online attacks compared to men - AI and deepfakes are exacerbating the problem - Examples: Jacinda Ardern faced 50-90 times more online abuse than other politicians 4. Rise of far-right and populist movements: - Often target women's rights and gender equality - Examples: Viktor Orban in Hungary, Javier Milei in Argentina - Promote "traditional family values" and anti-feminist rhetoric 5. Mainstreaming of extremist ideologies: - Misogynistic views embraced by populist leaders like Trump, Orban, Bolsonaro - "Great Replacement" theory has misogynistic elements - Normalization of sexist and violent rhetoric in politics 6. Persistent gender bias: - World Values Survey shows half believe men make better leaders - Younger men increasingly view gender equality as discriminatory against them - Structural barriers for women in politics remain 7. Successful women leaders countering stereotypes: - Examples: Tsai Ing-wen (Taiwan), Kaja Kallas (Estonia), leaders in Georgia, Kosovo, Moldova - Demonstrating effective leadership in crises and defending democracies 8. Need for action: - Pass laws requiring tech companies to combat online hate - Debunk myths about women's leadership abilities - Recommit to political and civil rights for all

Clash of civilisation And when Putin rails against the West, he often highlights its “decadence.” Russia – a “distinct civilization” with historical linkages to the Byzantine Empire – must lead the way in defending “traditional values” such as heterosexuality and the nuclear family.
