Can someone explain “blacklist” here? Are other nations allowed to do this shit?

T00l_shed@lemmy.world on 30 May 02:21 next collapse

There isn’t really anything stopping them from doing it, just like the us bombing people in boats, its not legal, but who’s gonna stop them?

FarraigePlaisteach@lemmy.world on 30 May 03:05 next collapse

Yeah, the article seems to skip explaining what the blacklist is.

Since its a UN list, it is literally just a list, no penalty, just a naughty list.

FarraigePlaisteach@lemmy.world on 30 May 12:40 collapse

Yeah. It seems to be a list rather than a blacklist. But because it names and shames it makes it easier for public sentiment to change and maybe some on-the-fence parties to come off it. It’s breadcrumbs, but I’ll take it.

The report is linked in the article. It’s an annual report of the Secretary General to the Security Council.

I assume it means that they lose some privileges or they can’t send troops to be part of UN forces. Also, I’ve heard little of Russian war crimes, to the extent there are any.

Israel in the other hand has publicly admitted to systemic sexual abuse of prisoners, including using dogs to carry out rapes.

It’s listed in the article if you read it, and I’ve seen multiple reports. There are also credible reports of other human rights violations around the invasion of Ukraine. I don’t know whose water you’re carrying here or if this is some campist crap.

A_norny_mousse@piefed.zip on 30 May 05:57 collapse

No, it means that every country found to do sanctioned and systematic sexual violence is on the blacklist.

minorkeys@sh.itjust.works on 30 May 06:20 next collapse

So many lists. How about something tangible that actually affects what’s happening?

chilldrivenspade@lemmy.world on 30 May 12:10 next collapse

israel and russia are the two most evil powers on earth

chilldrivenspade@lemmy.world on 30 May 12:11 collapse

the US is just an extension of both

shadowedcross@sh.itjust.works on 30 May 12:19 next collapse

It’s a threesome, and the US is the one being spitroasted.

phoenixz@lemmy.ca on 30 May 14:15 collapse

Or the result of both

US, Russia & israel are biggest fucking terrorists and should be stopped.
