Rula Jebreal wrote that, in her opinion, there was an attempt underway to dismantle the legacies of the Allied victory over Nazi fascism, starting with international criminal justice, which was born in Nuremberg and is today represented by the International Criminal Court. She called the comment attributed to Israel regarding the Nobel to Navi Pillay, stating that "Joseph Goebbels is applauding from hell," a "grotesque reversal of history." Jebreal argued that the applause should rather go to those who, in her opinion, were trying to dismantle international justice and ensure impunity for war criminals. According to Jebreal, the delegitimization of the courts was the first step towards replacing the law with the will of those in power, with democracy as the ultimate target. She also criticized the announcement of a live-streamed execution by firing squad of the perpetrator of the Fort Hood massacre, describing it as a transformation of punishment into spectacle and the state into a stage of vengeance. She concluded that, in addition to international justice, the principles of national rule of law were also under attack. #GiustiziaInternazionale #DirittiUmani #Democrazia (translated)
