"Sadly, #GuineaBissau has allowed itself to become complicit in Israel’s deliberate #starvation, #illegalSiege and genocide of Palestinians in #Gaza. @israel is showing the world the extent to which it will go to deny Palestinians the aid they need to stay alive, in direct contravention of International #HumanitarianLaw, #UN Security Council resolutions, and two orders of the International Court of Justice #ICC@cij_icj . Israel is only allowed to get away with this because we have an international order where law does not apply equally, where people are not valued the same, and where might equals right. The US has hijacked #internationalLaw and is violating its own laws to protect Israel at every turn. A recently-leaked #USAID memo states that ' #famine in Gaza is inevitable,' and that 'changes could reduce but not stop widespread #civiliandeaths.' It also states that the government of Israel does not currently demonstrate necessary compliance with #USlaw required to receive #USmilitary aid. Nevertheless, last week, the #USCongress passed and Biden signed a $26 billion aid package for Israel. It is this kind of naked impunity, over decades, that has brought us to this point where Israel can carry out a #genocide "
"Judge orders Oregon newspaper not to publish documents linked to Nike lawsuit"
No, no, no, no, no, no, fuck no.
I really think U.S. Magistrate Judge Jolie Russo is full of shit with her verdict. She's not just asking that the newspaper hold into their information for a while, she wants the documents returned to the attorney who erroneously released them to the newspaper.
If I recall correctly, this is a classical case given to law students in law school.
Q: What happens if an attorney releases information inadvertently to a newspaper?
A: That attorney is shit out of luck.
I mean, they can always ask nicely, but the newspaper cannot be forced to return the information. This type of situation even happened when the court itself released documents that were under seal. You cannot claw them back.
Now, I'm not a lawyer. Is there something that makes this case special?
