Marteus borde besöka Norra Fäladen i Lund (där jag växte upp mina första år). Länge dominerat av hyreslägenheter & boende med invandrarbakgrund. På 1990-talet rejäl utbyggnad mot Annehem med bostadsrätter och villor. Nu väldigt attraktivt område. www.expressen.se/ledare/ann-c...

It is not really accurate, in many parliamentery systems it is the Government (the executive) that initiates and tables draft laws to the parliament, see for example Sweden and Germany, similar to the EU commission, the Council and the European Parliament. www.bmi.bund.de/EN/topics/co...
The Law-making Process
According to Article 76 (1) of the Basic Law, bills may be introduced in the Bundestag by the Federal Government, by the Bundesrat, or from the floor of the Bundestag, that is, by at least five per cent of the members of the Bundestag or of a parliamentary group.

⚡️The Moscow City "Court" convicted the ICC Prosecutor & 8 sitting/former judges of "unlawful prosecution" of Russian citizens (because one of them got so upset). ICC officials were sentenced in absentia (keep it that way!) to jail terms of 3.5-15 years. Karim Khan received 15.

Bosnian refers to citizisenship of Bosnia of all groups, including Bosnian Serbs & Bosnian Muslims.

Bosniak is the name Bosnian Muslims use for themselves. It is widely used and its meaning is not disputed.

To deny the group's existence would appear genocidal.

In determining whether acts have genocidal intent or not, overall policies on what to do with the population of a certain area and verbal statements by Government members may be crucial.

The question cannot be reduced to what an actor is capable of. The Serbs had the capacity to kill more Bosniaks than they did, the ICJ and ICTY still found that it was a genocide in Srebrenica. The question is rather for what purpose a certain act is carried out.

It does not appear as you have read the link and ICJ judgment I pointed at. It is not matter of mechanical counting of dead persons. One has to determine the purpose and what effects the conduct has on the group. I have not mentioned Gaza in any of my posts. I am just helping you to find the law.

No. You should read para. 373 in the 2007 ICJ Genocide Judgment in the case between Bosnia and Serbia how to distinguish between genocidal acts and other acts based on the facts. www.icj-cij.org/case/91/judg...
INTERNATIONAL COURT OF JUSTICE
www.icj-cij.org

The definition in the Genocide convention requires an "intent to destroy in whole or in part". Consider what "in part" means and Google the "Srebrenica genocide". cilrap-lexsitus.org/en/clicc/6/6...

Fyfe's blow to Göring came somewhat later in the records (pp. 611 and 614) compared to the movie. Fyfe did not jump in suddenly after Justice Jackson as portrayed in the movie, however the line of argument is represented accurately. 3/3

Justice Jackson's questioning of Göring is in volume 9 of the courts proceedings. The line of questioning on the final solution starts at p. 515. Jackson's argument starts to break down at p. 518. 2/3
