Just so people can understand why the ICC claims jurisdiction, it is because the Palestinian Authority acting as the State of Palestine acceded to the Rome Statute of the ICC and thus became a state party in 2015. They pretty much did this with the express intention to give the ICC jurisdiction over alleged Israeli war crimes in occupied Palestinian territories. In 2019, ICC Prosecutor Fatou Bensouda requested a ruling on the question of ICC jurisdiction in Palestine. In 2021 the ICC Pre-Trial Chamber ruled that Palestine's accession to the Rome Statute gave it jurisdiction over Palestinian territories occupied by Israeli forces (a.k.a. the West Bank and Gaza Strip).
Lebanon is not and has never been a state party or signatory, for those curious. Israel and the US are signatories but refused to ratify the treaty, and thus aren't state parties. Nonetheless, the ICC had decided that crimes committed in countries who have acceded or ratified its statute, or accepted its jurisdiction, are subject to ICC regardless of the citizenship or residency of the alleged perpetrators. This is also why it issued arrest warrants against Vladimir Putin despite neither Russia nor Ukraine being state parties; Ukraine accepted ICC jurisdiction on an ad hoc basis for crimes committed during the Russian invasion.
This is not the right way to put it. She won 60,000 CNY, not 8,000 USD. A "low-wage" worker at a fast food restaurant or a coffee shop in the city earns 20-30 CNY per hour.
This is a pretty substantial payout by Chinese standards. At the same time, China doesn't recognise "punitive" damages or "emotional damages" as a thing. The response to the notion of "punitive damages" is "don't you mean a fine?", and that to "emotional damages" is that "there is no such thing, you can just get over it".
I never presented this as a dichotomy. You know, people prefer things in a certain order, right? I prefer Flatpaks and native packages over snaps and I prefer snaps to building from source.
There has not been peace in the Middle East since the Ottoman Empire and there probably never will be peace in the Middle East for at least several decades more.
You're substantively correct on all fronts here. I was just being picky about capitalisation. I'm saying it should be "courts of New York" and "courts of Delaware" since the court system of each respective state consists of multiple different courts.
The Delaware Supreme Court is not called the "Court of Delaware" and it is not in charge of any case at first instance involving the entity formerly known as Twitter. Cases generally begin in the Court of Chancery. The Supreme Court is simply at the top of the stack but it doesn't represent the entire system, which is referred to as the "judiciary of Deleware".
You did, however, get lucky in that the state trial court of first instance in New York is called the Supreme Court of New York, although I doubt you knew the difference. If Trump appeals then it will go to the Appellate Division before reaching the New York Court of Appeal, which is the highest court of the State of New York.
