How the court works?
What are the steps of the ICC process? As an international court, the ICC's legal process may function differently from that in your national jurisdiction.
The crimes The Court's founding treaty, called the Rome Statute, grants the ICC jurisdiction over four main crimes.
Я тут почитал немного римский статут, и просто ге представляю андрюш мельниченок, "сколько".
Ты черт, и подельники совершаешь только преступлений по 7 пункту. Против человечности.
Хорошо его на той стороне перечитать и по возможности, когда организм восстановится если вообще после такого восстановится, все ркально слодить по полочкам, и положить на стол международного уголовного суда.

It Starts From Within
This past week I had the privilege of traveling to Vienna to explore peace history and celebrate the memory of Bertha von Suttner on the anniversary of her death. During this experience, the words of Friedrich Nietzche crossed both in my readings and in my mind. His words pierced a part of my soul and changed this entire experience for me. Everyday now I make sure to tell myself, “He who has a why to live can bear almost any how”.
For me, this week was a week to develop my ability and my desire for survival when facing animosity. I have found that to give peace to the world, I must also allow it to encompass my personal being as well. Viktor Frankl survived hell and through reading his works and developing an understanding of his ideas, I am determined that during this previous week I have developed skills to not only survive, but to thrive in peace.
I chose my paper topic on the issue of survivors’ roles in the International Criminal Court because as a survivor of sexual violence, I wanted to learn more about my experience on an international level. Because of this, the most important thing I learned from this week was that peace starts within. I cannot be a person of peace until I start to accept my experience and forgive myself for my sexual assault. I cannot keep asking myself why I let it happen or other daunting questions that leave me awake at night. I learned most importantly, this past week that I have a why to live, and I won’t let anyone, including my assailant, take that away from me.
One of my heroes, Maya Angelou, wrote a poem titled, Phenomenal Woman. In one part she writes,
I walk into a room Just as cool as you please, And to a man, The fellows stand or Fall down on their knees. Then they swarm around me, A hive of honey bees. I say, It’s the fire in my eyes, And the flash of my teeth, The swing in my waist, And the joy in my feet. I’m a woman Phenomenally. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VeFfhH83_RE
Her words to me, as with Nietzche, stay with me as I stumble and fall on the road to inner peace as I face down the injustices that I have experienced in my life. Her words were with me as I reflected on peace in Vienna. Frankl writes, “The salvation of man is through love and in love” and from what I have found is that in order to give your life to the love of others, one must first love oneself.
When I was in the city of Vienna I saw how proud the buildings were. They stood tall and survived adversity. Even the buildings didn’t crumble when they faced the wrath of the Nazis. I saw the carved out women warriors who survived by their conviction. In the shelter of the tall buildings and the historic art, I developed a core that kept me from crumbling again.
I learned about the movement of the 1,000 Peace Women, an organization that works to celebrate women who work and have worked to create a society of peace. I am excited to be able to learn about these women who are so often unheard of because of their status as women. I learned that they are worth something and in return, so am I. http://www.1000peacewomen.org/en/
I also learned about another organization, Peacewomen.org, that “promotes the role of women in preventing conflict, and the equal and full participation of women in all efforts to create and maintain international peace and security. PeaceWomen facilitates monitoring of the UN system, information sharing and the enabling of meaningful dialogue for positive impact on women’s lives in conflict and post-conflict environments”. http://peacewomen.org/pages/about-us
This week, though often surrounded by crowds of people, was a time for introspection for me. I’m taking away that I have a duty to myself and through respecting myself, I can fully commit to the efforts in creating a better world.
Songwriter Ray LaMontagne produced a song with the lyrics, “war is not the answer, the answer is within you”. Peace, though it seems vast in scale starts small, it starts with me finding peace within me.
While international peace may be a complex system of dialogues and diplomacy where there decisions are ambiguous, I have found that to even begin solving international disputes, one must find peace within themselves. The ICC cannot expect to enlighten the world with peace and justice unless the individual person is enlightened with peace and justice. It all starts from within.
Religion and Rights
In the last lines of Malik, “The challenge of human rights is whether Western society, conceived in the joyous liberties of the Greek city-States and nurtured on Christian charity, can still recover from the worship of false and alien gods and return to its authentic sources.”
I disagree with the thoughts of Malik. First, Western society has been cultivated by a myriad of religions. If it wasn’t, then there wouldn’t be so much hate for The West. The West has culture and a sense of individual rights that no religion can relinquish.
Christian charity does not need to be recovered from the worship of false aliens and gods. In fact, if it was returned to its authentic sources, there would be a new rise of social conservatism that would hinder the rights of others. It’s interesting that the idea of religion that is proposed conflicts with the ideologies of Jesus….but that is for another blog.
Perhaps the reason that our current state is falling apart, if it is so is because of a lack of values. But does one need Christian ideology to have values? The question then becomes where do values come from? From my experience, disagreeing with Malik, human rights in Western society does not have to be conceived in religion, but of the experience of reason and thought.
There could be a question of whether or not Western materialism is in itself a god. Could the current state be falling apart because of such a Jihad for this religion of materialism? If this was the case then, can it return to its Christian roots?
Perhaps the root of Christian charity is not the form of social conservatism many authors would prescribe to, but is the idea that rejects the notion that falsifies all other religions and beliefs. In a way, Christianity in society today has been hijacked by social conservatives and taken hostage by such social conservatives.
In my opinion, there is nothing to recover from except our own ignorance. It is not our distaste for religion that holds us back, but our own distrust for education and intelligence. Malik says “Everyone has duties to the community in which alone the free and full development of his personality is possible”…do we really need religion to guide us in this process? I follow the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in which we are endowed with Reason and so I do not find that following religion endorses reason and conscience.
