Palestine dominated the headlines of International Justice for much of 2014. Throughout the year we published a series of cartoons and articles on the topic. Here is a selection of some of our top Palestine-related cartoons.

 

The prosecutor of the International Criminal Court has decided not to prosecute Israel for the attack on a flotilla carrying relief goods to the Gaza Strip, which left nine Turkish activists dead in 2010.

The flotilla was sailing in international waters, trying to break Israel’s naval blockade of Gaza. Israeli commandos landed on the biggest ship, the Mavi Marmara. The activists were killed in the ensuing clashes.

Ahead of this week’s Hubble, Justice Hub decided to dust off the poetic cliché by Plato and add a thematic twist. With the ICC deciding to shelve a case related to Gaza, Israel and Turkey, the blogosphere, Twitter and newspapers exploded with outraged reactions to the prosecutor’s move, along with a dash of sober reflection.

The incident the ICC contemplated dominated the news in May and June, 2010: six aid ships, known as the Gaza Freedom Flotilla – from six different organisations – were heading to the Gaza Strip and were intercepted by Israeli forces. Nine activists on the lead ship – the Mavi Marmara – were killed. The case was actually referred to the ICC by the Comoros Islands, where one of the ships was registered, enabling the prosecutor to make a “preliminary examination”.

This past week, there was a great deal of talk about whether Palestine should become a member of the International Criminal Court. Just as views on the Israel-Palestine conflict are split down the middle – journalists, academics and International Justice professionals are equally divided on Palestine’s desire to join the ICC and the consequences of potential membership.

The ICC is a members only club – if you want to the court to be involved, you have to join it. Do the Palestinians really want to join? What would really happen in The Hague?
