It’s easy to see why the advisory opinion of the United Nations International Court of Justice (the World Court) might give Foreign Minister, Penny Wong, a few matters for consideration. Some of the Court’s findings include that Israel’s continued presence in the Occupied Palestinian Territory is unlawful, that all states are under an obligation not Continue reading »
