The International Court of Justice (ICJ) has ordered the US to ease sanctions it re-imposed on Iran after abandoning a nuclear deal in May.

Judges ruled that the US had to remove "any impediments" to the export of humanitarian goods, including food, medicine and aviation safety equipment.

The US argued the ruling was a "defeat" for Iran, saying it already allowed humanitarian-related transactions.

The rulings of the ICJ are binding but the court has no power to enforce them.

It is the main judicial organ of the UN and settles legal disputes between member states. But both nations have in the past ignored the court's rulings.

@Blickers,

It would be a riot if McConnell agrees to turn evidence for Mueller in exchange for leniency.

If Mueller has that kind of power there is something seriously wrong. Idiots that do not how the law works say a lot of stupid things and are only going to say more stupid things based on a limited understanding of government and its limits, I just quoted one.

America has gone from grief to rising happiness in the short space of one and a half years. No magic was involved. Donald Trump is not any sort of a sorcerer or prestidigitator and what he has done is not rocket science. He has simply begun the work of undoing several decades worth of very bad trade policies and Malthusian policies directly intended to harm the United States for the greater glory of Gaia, as well as policies intended to line the pockets of globalist fatcats at the expense of ordinary working people all over the world.

Reports indicate that most Americans are happy with this turn of events but, given the power which the Democrat party still wields, the races in November still figure to be close.

Anybody who is uncomfortable with the new prosperity and happiness has a simple option in front of them: vote for Democrats and, like is not, the grief will return.

In particular, a vote for Beto O’Rourke would be a vote to have no place to go.

Here is another story in the news about a phony demopoop rape allegation disintegrating:

https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/2013/11/22/crystal-mangum-duke-lacrosse-rape-accuser-guilty-murder/3680701/

I mean, maybe that's the ticket that the demopoops are looking for, Christine and Crystal 2020

That at least gives you one more alternative to the presumed Weiner/Holder ticket idea.

@coldjoint,
Um, if you're going to quote scurrilous charges of "murder" and suggest that Ted Kennedy — or John Kerry — thought it was just a "tiny step over the line", you should avoid providing sources that contradict your claim:
Quote:
Tapper followed up by asking him about Kennedy, prompting Kerry to say that people have also been critical of his actions, adding that Kennedy was critical of himself.

“He stood up and owned moments where he knew he’d stepped over the line, so I think that—and he wasn’t about to be nominated to a lifetime position,” Kerry said. “In fact, he said to the people of Massachusetts, if you think I shouldn’t stay here, then, you know—he took those returns and then he was elected another six times.”

(your link)

1) A passenger dying in a car accident isn't a case of "murder".

2) Kerry never said it was a "little" step or a "tiny" step, and was speaking in general terms about Kennedy's various transgressions.

Why present crap which is so obviously biased on a forum frequented by liberals and Trump critics? Save your fake news for right-wing partisan sites where no one will bother checking out your sources.

@coldjoint,
I think you should bet the farm on the accuracy of that statement.

@Region Philbis,
Right. My last "fight" was 11 or 12 as well (including nothing like fists to the head or body).

You wouldn't know it, but Alan Dershowitz packed quite a punch in his undergraduate/law school days. Back then, he and his girlfriend Judge Judy ruled the rowdies in the Boston bar scene with an iron fist. Literally, they say.


I can’t speak for anybody else, but Judge Judy scares the crap out of me...I hear she still carries a blade.

Edit: I just noticed someone down-voted your post. Let me just express my personal opinion that whoever did that is not merely an idiot, he is in need of psychiatric aid.

Perhaps not. I won't include it in my survey data but will footnote it because I'm treating women differently these days.
