  • 1. Curtis Doebbler, Targeted Killings and International
    NLUJ Law Review Curtis F. J. Doebbler, Targeted Killings and International Law, 2(2) NLUJ Law Review 1 (2014) TARGETED KILLINGS AND INTERNATIONAL LAW DR. CURTIS F. J. DOEBBLER* Targeted killings are increasingly the manner in which some of the militarily most powerful States in the world project violence around the globe. This article examines whether such actions are consistent with international law using the well-established parameters of State responsibility and the obligations found under international humanitarian and human rights law. The appraisal of targeted killings is based on principles of international law that are rarely disputed, but often ignored in the consideration of targeted killings due to reasons of political convenience. In the process of considering this central issue, the article also examines the intricate and sometimes misunderstood relationship between these two areas of law as well as the legal justifications that States have or may put forward in defense of their actions. This evaluation concludes that rarely, if ever, are States that conduct targeted killings acting with respect for international law. Moreover, these States, which often base their justifications on political interests related to the national security of their people, may even be jeopardizing the very security of their populations that they are think they are protecting.

    Open Letter to the Co-chairs of the United Nations Inter- Agency and Expert Group on Sustainable Development Goal Indicators (IAEG-SDGs) 21st October 2015 Dr. Lisa Grace S. Bersales. National Statistician Office of the National Statistician 3/F PSA-CVEA Bldg East Avenue Quezon City, 1101 Ms. Fabiola Riccardini Senior researcher Italian National Institute of Statistics Via Cesare Balbo, 16 00184 – Rome cc: Mr. John Pullinger, UK National Statistician, Head of the Government Statistical Service (GSS) and Chief Executive of the UK Statistics Authority Dear Dr. Bersales and Ms. Riccardini, We as members of civil society commend the task undertaken under your leadership to develop global indicators for the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). We appreciate the efforts made by the Inter Agency Expert Group on SDGs (IAEG-SDGs) to seek input from a wide range of stakeholders, including civil society. We want to share with you a few red lines as civil society on the global SDGs indicators process to make it more transparent and inclusive, facilitating the participation of all stakeholders. These indicators will set out how progress against the SDGs will be measured, enabling stakeholders to track progress and identify targets that are off track. Besides being a critical tool for holding our leaders to account, they will also be a compass to check if the SDGs are delivering for the people, leaving no-one behind, and acknowledge fully the planetary boundaries. 1. We urge the IAEG-SDGs to apply the following principles to your work, to ensure that the development of global indicators matches the spirit and ambition of the SDGs.

INTRODUCTION On September 11, 2001, the United States faced an unprecedented attack against civilians on U.S. soil.' Since the attacks, many scholars have criticized the government's responses in fighting terrorism, particularly the detention of Jose Padilla.2 Jose Padilla is an American citizen, yet the government seized him as he disembarked from a plane at Chicago O'Hare International Airport and has since held Padilla at a military base in South Carolina.3 Even more disturbing is the government's argument that Padilla is an enemy combatant and therefore has no right to a lawyer, 1.

  • Human Rights in Myanmar: Ethnic Cleansing
    36th session of the UN Human Rights Council Human Rights in Myanmar: Ethnic Cleansing Friday 15 September 2017 15h00 – 16h30 Room XXVII, Palais des Nations, Geneva Concept Note The situation in Myanmar is alarmingly deteriorating. Myanmar government is repeatedly condemned for grave breaches of international human rights law and international humanitarian law. However, mass atrocities against Rohingya Muslim minority in Rakhine State continue to these days and seriously worsened within the last month. The government fails to ensure the halt of violence and protection from abuse against ethnic minorities, particularly Rohingya religious minority. The incitement to discrimination and violence based on national, racial and religious hatred is widespread and systematic. Within the general context of anti-Muslim rhetoric, the security forces have implemented persecution policies for decades. Ethnic minorities are targeted within the so-called “Burmanization” policy and the most shocking is the case of Rohingya. For centuries the Rohingya community of approximately 1.3 million members mostly live in Rakhine State with historical roots in Myanmar dating back to ancient times. Nevertheless, the government refuses to give them the nationality and instead it uses the term “Bengali” to refer to Rohingya as foreigners. Over 100,000 ethnic minority Rohingya have taken a perilous journey to leave the country by sea; the Rohingya are fleeing horrific Apartheid-like conditions where 140,000 are confined in what many describe as "concentration camps".1 It is estimated some 350,000 Rohingya have fled Myanmar in search of protection in Bangladesh, including an estimated 74,000 who arrived in late 2016 as a result of a security crackdown in northern Rakhine State.2 According to UNHCR, in less than three weeks over 270,000 people have fled to Bangladesh, three times more than the 87,000 who fled the previous operation.
