Khan temporarily stepped down amidst sexual misconduct allegations last year.

Representatives from a certain government who were trying to intimidate me were once thwarted by me hoping on my bike and cycling away.
I am so fatigued
The reactions from folks when you say you're going by bike...
I mean I can correct their mistake if you'd like.

Spotted in the wild. As if 2026 wasn't bad enough.
In fairness, the Germans might be sending money by fax.
6. There are other things that the US could have done meet those obligations, like alerting nearby countries to began search and rescue operations.
According to the reporting work of one of my talented colleagues:
The whole conflict is illegal, but there's nothing particularly illegal about this attack.
5. What obligations the US vessel had is "complicated" according to experts by it being a submarine.
There are "practical limitations" -- submarines have less space to take survivors on board, for example.
4. Under the Second Geneva Convention, there is an obligation to aid wounded soldiers at sea.
Failing to do also "isn't a war crime but could be a violation of international humanitarian law." (I'm quoting directly from two international law experts.)

"Does this book tell me anything I can't get from the HBR article?" and it's nearly always no.
Duterte’s legal team was appealing an earlier rejection from October.
They had asked a pre-trial panel of judges to release the octogenarian, arguing he was in frail health and his condition was deteriorating in the court’s detention unit.
You know who is getting things done today? ICC appeals court judges.
They just released a decision keeping former Philippine President Rodrigo Dutertein custody.
Is anyone getting anything done today?
Liked it, didn't love it.
In fairness to me I was a child.
I punched Nelson Mandela in the face.
Temperatures were well below freezing in Buffalo, New York in the days after Nurul Amin Shah Alam went missing in February 2026. February was notoriously one of the snowiest months for the city, over a six-hour drive north of New York City.
Mic.
The US noped out of the 1955 Treaty of Amity in 2018 after the ICJ ordered Washington to lift some sanctions against Iran in a seperate case.
Iran took its claim to the world court in 2016 after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that money belonging to Iran’s central bank could be used as compensation for victims of a 1983 bombing in Lebanon and other attacks linked to Iran.
