A prime example of failure to protect rights during counterterrorism operations. UN should forge a solution with the dozens of member states whose citizens are stuck in Iraq/Syria. My new piece on this here:

Important piece. The women also deserve answers. If they committed a crime, they should get a fair trial. And if Kurds don't want to try them, then solution is for them to return home (and depending on individual circumstances, they may have to face trials).

Alas part of the problem with counterterrorism mandates is that they not only allow countries to wink at human rights law, they also infringe on sovereignty by requiring countries to enact certain types of counterterrorism laws.

Mexico's democracy emerges stronger tonight. Quick and graceful concessions from the losers. Hopefully, this allows many on the left here who never trusted elections to believe that Mexico has a decent, if imperfect, voting system.

Al-Shabab has banned plastic bags from areas under its control, according to pro-Shabab media. The militant group has reportedly issued a general directive banning plastic bags, and gave environmental and health risks to the livestock as reasons for taking the move.

7/ "Absent concerted efforts to check abusive counterterrorism responses, we risk sabotaging the human rights architecture that has painstakingly constructed over past 7 decades... & turning much of world into a police state." My comments to the summit.
