* The NY Times published a response by Benyamin Netanyahu to the ICJ ruling.
* This commentary in the Toronto Globe&Mail argues that the ICJ will ultimately suffer in the long term for its inability to separate law and politics:
Israel can survive yet another piece of anti-Zionist propaganda labelling its every effort of self-defence a crime against humanity. What is less certain is whether the cause of international justice and the court itself can survive its politicization. Once the court has become so political, which states — except the politically popular — would submit to its judgments?
* A US court upheld a $116 million judgment against the PA and PLO for the murder of Yaron and Efrat Ungar, ruling they provided a safe haven for Hamas to plan the attack.
* A Palestinian journalist based in Ramallah wrote an op-ed criticizing PA corruption and mismanagement. Published in the Chicago Tribune:
Corruption and the Palestinian Authority have grown synonymous over the past 10 years. In fact, the government is often criticized, and for good reason, for resembling a Mafia state with Arafat as the godfather.
