For the first time, the Canadian government has explicitly defined anti-Zionism as a form of antisemitism. This is an appalling capitulation to pro-Israel actors like CIJA and anti-Palestinian racism.
Zionism forms the ideological backbone of Israel's state-sanctioned violence against Palestinians. Our government quietly redefining it as a form of bigoted hate against Jews as a group is both offensive and inaccurate, and it endangers all Canadians' right to freedom of expression.
We call for an immediate retraction, acknowledgement of the incredible harm this mischaracterization does to Palestinian and Jewish communities, and a recognition of anti-Zionism as a legitimate political viewpoint grounded in social justice.

To those who don't believe that the powerful - including presidents - can't end up facing justice at the ICC.

Venezuela and Chad are withdrawing from the #ICC due to pressure from the US.
If the Trump wants states to leave the Court, those who care about the institutions' success should organize a membership drive and push for more to join it.

"The Office remains committed to conducting independent and impartial investigations and prosecutions across all situations under the Court’s jurisdiction to deliver justice for victims of Rome Statute crimes."

Today is proof that even the most powerful WITHIN int'l organisations can be held accountable for their actions that amount to misconduct and breach of duty:

This is categorically untrue.
The allegations against #ICC Prosecutor Karim Khan have exactly nothing to do with the credible and independently investigated cases that led to warrants against Netanyahu and Gallant.
The evidence of their atrocities speaks for itself.
Tomorrow, ICC member states will vote on whether to remove Chief Prosecutor Karim Khan over allegations of sexual misconduct.
Media reports indicate that after learning of the allegations, Mr. Khan bypassed normal procedures and rushed to seek arrest warrants against Israeli leaders to deflect attention from his own vile behaviour.
These developments raise serious questions about the credibility of those warrants, which have been used in Canada to influence policy and fuel anti-Israel rhetoric. The longer Mr. Khan remains in position, the greater the damage to the ICC's credibility.
The Government of Canada should vote for Mr. Khan's removal and take a hard look at how the ICC is being politicized by bad actors.
Ashley Waye retweeted
Two things, both false:
❌ The ICC issued or rushed warrants for Netanyahu and Gallant because of sexual harassment allegations faced by the Karim Khan.
❌ The allegations against Khan were an Israeli or American conspiracy to remove him.
Please, don’t spread misinformation.

The ICC's work on Palestine does not depend on any single office holder. This is a crucial pt & the media conflation between Khan personally, & justice in Gaza must be disentangled. Please read the petition & sign if you agree: 4genderjustice.org/feminist-…

"#DARVO is a powerful form of manipulation and a clear example of rape culture in action. It silences survivors, protects those in positions of power, and upholds a system where accountability is routinely avoided."

1/The Prosecutor's Art 46(4) right to present evidence & make submissions is exercised "in accordance with the RPE"—and the Rules locate it at the Bureau, not the ASP. Once discharged there, he "shall not otherwise participate." The Assembly votes on the record.
5/ What follows contains no Rule 27 hook at all. Rule 81(2) merely transmits the record to the Assembly; 81(3) has the Assembly decide on removal. Neither re-runs the process. The right isn't re-triggered at the ASP: the Assembly votes on the record it's handed.
4/ Avenue 2: Rule 82(2): the Bureau can still recommend removal in disagreement with the panel, under 82(2)(c). Same command as under 81: the Bureau gathers information "in accordance with Rule 27" before it recommends. That is where the submissions right is exercised.
