The news came as a shock to many of his fans, who had grown accustomed to his regular updates and hilarious antics. But true to form, Refund Brother chose to address the situation with his typical humor and humility.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — After struggling to run the ball consistently all season, the Los Angeles Rams finally made some progress on the ground in New Orleans. Kyren Williams and rookie Blake Corum carried the Rams (6-6) to a 21-14 win that kept them squarely in the playoff race for another week. Los Angeles racked up a season-high 156 yards rushing against the Saints, with Williams going for 104 yards and a touchdown while Corum added 42 yards on a season high-tying eight carries. The game was the inverse of most afternoons this season for the Rams, who came into the week averaging fewer than 100 yards rushing per game. The running game was sturdy and productive, while Matthew Stafford and his receivers struggled to get into a rhythm at the Superdome. Coach Sean McVay always prefers to use his run game to set up the pass, and it finally worked for once this season. “I thought Kyren ran really well," McVay said. “I thought Corum ran really well. I thought our offensive line set the line of scrimmage in the run game. We really started slow in the pass game, but I thought Matthew was excellent in the second half. We were able to get some different things off of those run actions going, and that ended up being the difference in the game.” Not coincidentally, the Rams' running game worked well on the Sunday when the offensive line finally had a starting five uncompromised by injuries or suspension for the first time all season. Right tackle Rob Havenstein returned from an ankle injury, making the group whole around rookie center Beaux Limmer, who has beaten out high-priced free agent Jonah Jackson for a starting job. The Rams still had yet another slow start in a season full of them. They ran only three plays in the entire first quarter, and they were held scoreless in the first half when their other two drives resulted in a turnover on downs and a punt. But Los Angeles rebounded with an 11-play scoring drive to open the second half featuring seven runs by Williams. He eventually moved up to fifth in the NFL with 926 yards rushing despite averaging just 4.2 yards per carry — nearly a yard less than he had last season, and the lowest average among the league's top 10 rushers this season. The Rams have thrived without a strong rushing attack before: They averaged just 99.0 yards per game on the ground, ranking 25th in the NFL, during their Super Bowl championship season in 2021-22. But McVay prefers his first option to be a strong running attack, which he had during his first three seasons in charge with Todd Gurley in the backfield and Andrew Whitworth at left tackle. “Anytime the guys up front are moving them, and (Williams) is making great reads and moves on the second level, then that is a fun feeling for the offense," Stafford said. “It’s great when you can hand the ball off and get big creases. We converted when we needed to in short-yardage stuff. I thought our guys did a really great job up front, and Kyren ran it great.” What's working The Rams have struggled in the red zone all season, but they scored touchdowns on all three trips in New Orleans. They did it by committing to the run game up the middle, setting up TD passes on the outside to Demarcus Robinson and Puka Nacua. What needs help Alvin Kamara racked up 112 yards rushing in the latest strong game by an opposing running back. Los Angeles is 28th in the league against the run, allowing 144.2 yards rushing per game — including 194 per game over the past three weeks. Stock up Rookie edge rusher Jared Verse had another outstanding game, racking up five tackles, three quarterback hits and numerous big plays that don't show up on stat sheets. He capped the performance by hitting Derek Carr from behind and forcing an incompletion from the Los Angeles 9 on New Orleans' final play. Stock down Cornerback Darious Williams gave up a touchdown pass to Marquez Valdes-Scantling and the ensuing 2-point conversion pass to Dante Pettis early in the fourth quarter, capping a second straight rough week for the free-agent signee. Williams is the Rams' best cornerback, but they haven't had an above-average shutdown pass defender since trading Jalen Ramsey. Los Angeles added cornerback depth Monday, claiming 2023 first-round pick Emmanuel Forbes off waivers from Washington. Injuries Robinson injured his hand during the game, and Stafford incurred a lateral ankle sprain. McVay said he doesn't expect either injury to affect the veterans' preparations this week. Key number 17 — Cooper Kupp's yards receiving. That's his lowest total in a game in which he didn't get injured since Oct. 18, 2020. Kupp had only six targets, few downfield routes and curiously scant chances to make big plays. Next steps The Rams are home underdogs this week against powerhouse Buffalo, followed by a Thursday night game at San Francisco. Getting even one win out of these two matchups will be difficult, but probably necessary to keep pace with Seattle and Arizona in the NFC West. ___ AP NFL: https://apnews.com/NFL Greg Beacham, The Associated PressDespite the seeming challenges at home, Nigerian Lawyers and Judges have, over the years, distinguished themselves, including at being Prosecutors, Judges and Chief Justices of some African countries. This chain of achievements has not yet ended. Onikepo Braithwaite and Jude Igbanoi sought out one of these rare gems who rose from the Nigerian legal sphere, Judge Chile Eboe-Osuji, the first black and African President of the International Criminal Court, seated at The Hague, Netherlands (ICC). Called to the Nigerian and Canadian Bars, Judge Eboe-Osuji is actually home-grown. He graduated from the University of Calabar, practiced in Port Harcourt before going abroad for his Masters and subsequently, his Doctorate. In 1997, Judge Eboe-Osuji started worked at the UN where he served in various capacities. It was from the UN that he was elected to serve as a Judge of the ICC in 2012. He distinguished himself and earned the confidence of his fellow Judges at the Court, and in 2018, they elected him as the 4th President of the Court where he presided over sensitive international criminal cases during his three year tenure which ended in 2018. The author of a book titled “End of Immunity”, a detailed discussion on the history of international law on immunity, Judge Eboe-Osuji shares his views on several issues, including the ICC issuing an arrest warrant in relation to crimes committed in Gaza and Ukraine Judge, kindly, give us an overview of your career and how you ended up as the 4th President of the International Criminal Court at The Hague To summarise, starting with my educational background: I received my LLB degree from the University of Calabar in 1985. Did the legal professional training course at the Nigerian Law School, and was called to the Bar in 1986. And, so, yes, I’m a member of the “notorious” Call Class of ’86. I did my National Youth Service in Port Harcourt and after that, I went to Canada two years later. I did my LLM degree at McGill University in Canada; and eventually, my PhD much, much later at the University of Amsterdam in the Netherlands. Regarding my legal work, before going to Canada, I practised law in Port Harcourt from 1986 to 1988. In Canada, I re-qualified, got called to the Bar and practised law in both Vancouver and Toronto. Come 1997, I was recruited to work at the UN International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda, as a Prosecution Counsel. I was the first Nigerian to be recruited as a Prosecutor, in an International Tribunal. Later, I also worked as a Prosecutor at the Special Court for Sierra Leone in Freetown. I eventually ended up in Geneva working as the Senior Legal Advisor to the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights. It was from that last position that I was elected to serve as a Judge of the International Criminal Court, starting in 2012 – the first Nigerian to serve as an ICC Judge. In 2018, my fellow Judges at the ICC, elected me to serve as Court’s President. That was the first and the only time, that a black person and an African served in the position. Why does it appear as if Nigerians/Africans do not play many roles in these international courts unless their springboard is from outside Nigeria, from places such as UK, Europe, USA, Canada etc? I can’t speak to the experience of other Africans. Regarding Nigerians, however, I will insist that a Nigerian is a Nigerian. I don’t accept the mindset of finding reasons to draw distinctions between Nigerians – “What’s her ethnic group? What’s his religion? Is she ‘home-based’ or a ‘Diasporan?” and so on. Nigerians are driven by one circumstance or another, to ply their trades where they do. Naturally, when the time comes to dive into the swimming pool of opportunity, you leap from springboard on which you stand. And, when I speak of swimming pool of opportunity, I must stress that these are veritable swimming pools – often infested with things that can bite you – in which you must swim well, lest you sink or drown. The more interesting question, though, should be why it is that Nigerian Lawyers don’t serve as Judges in the various international courts as frequently as Nigeria’s size commands – given a population of over 220 million people and more than 200,000 Lawyers according to certain estimates. It has been a hit-and-miss; a once-in-a-blue-moon story. The primary reason for the spotty showing, is because these positions are filled through highly competitive international elections. But, more often than not, those who nominate Nigeria’s candidates will brush aside the best candidates available – and then send forward candidates on the basis of other non-professional considerations. The candidate then goes to compete and ends up losing, because they were competing with better candidates from the other countries. And, the cycle is repeated next time. What are the core objectives of the ICC? How well would you say the court has done in achieving same? The core objective of the ICC is to be a court of last resort, which insists on accountability when international crimes – that is, aggression, genocide, crimes against humanity, and war crimes – have been committed and the national authorities with the primary jurisdiction either fail to investigate and prosecute, or fail to do so genuinely. So far, the ICC has done remarkably well, if we all keep in mind what the court was set up to do – also keeping in mind the structures of its jurisdiction. Often, people impose their own interpretations of the court’s mandate – as well as their own expectations upon the court – without having actually read the court’s statute to see what its mandate really is, and the framework that constrains what the court is permitted to do. Here, we must consider that the court can exercise jurisdiction only in any of the following circumstances: first, over nationals of member States wherever those nationals commit international crimes; second, over individuals who commit international crimes on the territory of a member State of the court, even when the State of nationality of the culprit is not a member State of the court. The court’s jurisdiction over Russian nationals for alleged crimes committed in Ukraine- and the jurisdiction over Israeli nationals for alleged crimes committed in Gaza – come under this rubric. A third way to seise the court of jurisdiction is when the UN Security Council refers a case to the ICC, regardless of the nationality of the territory or of the accused person; and it doesn’t matter that the State concerned is not a party to the Rome Statute. The record of the court’s activities, shows that it has generally done quite well in discharging its mandate. The court’s biggest image problem, comes from two primary sources. The first is that, when the court seeks to subject the leaders of a country to accountability – as it must when the occasion requires – those people invariably unleash the most ferocious propaganda campaigns against the court, regardless of the truth. The second source of image problem comes from the failings of the court’s member States, who fail to play their own parts – often due to their own political choices. In a strange, unexplained phenomenon, the court gets blamed for those failings of the States. Take for instance, arrest warrants. The court issues two arrest warrants in legally identical circumstances: one against the leader of an ally, the other against the leader of an adversary State. What often happens is that an ICC member State – or a State with interest – will cheer the court for the arrest warrant against the adversary, and then simultaneously vilify the court for the arrest warrant against the ally. We see this phenomenon in the arrest warrants against Mr Putin and Mr Netanyahu. And, the vilification is based on nothing more than political gas fire – not on the facts and the law. No one ever says, “No the facts do not support the arrest warrant”. It is always other arguments – mostly political noises. And, some gullible people end up believing the tripe. Even some of the questions in this interview, reveal the extent to which the unwary seem to believe or unintentionally relay these campaigns against the court. It is on record that the USA, UK, Russia and a few other major countries are neither members of the ICC, nor signatories to the enabling statutes, particularly the Rome Statute. This appears to lend credence to the assumption that the court was set up mainly to hound African leaders and leaders from third world countries. To what extent would you say this assumption is justified? The UK is a member State of the court. So is France, Germany, Italy, Spain and all of Western Europe. By regional distribution, there are 33 African States, 28 States from Latin America and the Caribbean, 25 from Western Europe and their kindred States (including Canada, Australia and New Zealand), 19 from the Asia-Pacific region, and 19 from Eastern Europe. All for a total of 124 States. That number is 47 States more than the 77 States that have accepted the compulsory jurisdiction of the International Court of Justice. So, the premise of concern is not borne out, when it is contended that the preferences of any State – such as US, Russia, China or India – to not ratify the Rome Statute lend credence to the argument that the ICC was set up “mainly to hound” the leaders of developing countries. But, even in itself the concern that the court “hounds” the leaders of African States is a mistaken view. For one thing, there are arrest warrants now out for the President of Russia and one of his Ministers; as well as for the Prime Minister of Israel and his former Defence Minister. These are not African leaders. Finally, I was not impressed with the concern, which was rife at some point, that the Court was too focused on Africa. The complaint was not impressive, because the argument was never that the crimes never occurred. Nor was the concern lodged from the perspective of the African victims of atrocities. No one ever pointed out one African victim of atrocities, who complained that the ICC should not be doing the cases it was doing. I remember a discussion I once had in 2018 or 2019 with a Rwandan official who complained that the ICC was “too focused on Africans.” It turned out that the official was Tutsi. I asked him whether he realised that the logic of his complaint would have meant that the Rwandan Genocide Tribunal should not have done its work, because that work was “too focused on Africans.” But, we cannot ignore the fact that the crimes we are talking about here, are crimes which Africans committed against Africans. ICC takes them up, only because the national system concerned did not investigate or prosecute. You recently authored a Book ‘End of Immunity’. Tell us briefly about the Book which we are told is a must read, and whether you agree that certain leaders are not accountable for their actions. Some have said that if an African leader did a quarter of what Netanyahu has done to the Palestinians or Putin to the Ukrainians, they would be facing sanctions by now, if not, arrest for offences like genocide and crimes against humanity. Take Charles Taylor of Liberia for example; he bagged a 50 year jail sentence for his crimes against humanity etc, while some countries are defending Netanyahu for his own atrocities. Why the double standards? Will the stronger world leaders ever be made accountable? I’m grateful to those who see my new book, End of Immunity, as a must read. A family member who is a medical doctor and a friend who is an engineer, both of whom have read the book, said very much the same thing about the book. I intentionally wrote the book in a style and language that make it accessible to everyone – and not only to Lawyers. My engineer friend told me that his copy was delivered to him at 11:30 pm and he made the “mistake” of starting to read it then – he couldn’t put it down. Regarding the subject-matter, there are some people who mistakenly think that international law had recognised immunity for Heads of State alleged to have committed international crimes. The book is an in-depth exposé of the history of international law on that question. And, it reveals that, at no point had international law ever recognised immunity for even Heads of State who are under investigation or prosecution before an international court for international crimes. Quite the contrary, at every opportunity – since 1919 – the international community had rejected such immunity. That, in a nutshell, is the central story of the book. But, it needed telling with all the historical records that demonstrate the proposition. How can we make our own Nigerian leaders accountable? It depends on the subject-matter. In relation to ordinary crimes, immunity is often provided in the Constitution of nations. Many national Constitutions – not only Nigeria’s – provide that while in office the Head of State may not be prosecuted for ordinary crimes. That privilege is exclusively reserved, for Heads of State within national law. But, for international crimes, there is no immunity for anyone including heads of State. So, any Nigerian – including the President – who is implicated in a genocide, crimes against humanity or war crimes, should expect to be tried at the ICC. There is no immunity. It is that simple. There was no ICC during the Nigerian civil war. I have no doubt at all that, had the court existed at the time, Nigeria’s leaders would have found themselves under investigation and prosecution at the ICC. There’s no doubt at all about that. So, it is important to ensure that that national experience is never repeated. Kindly, share with us a few cases which you adjudicated upon at the ICC that impacted on global diplomacy in any way. There was the Kenyan case involving Ruto and Kenyatta, even before you became President of the ICC. One matter that I adjudicated at the ICC that remains topical, was the question of immunity in relation to President Omar Al-Bashir of Sudan. I was the presiding Judge of the appellate chamber of the ICC, when the question was presented to the Appeals Chamber for the first time. The question was whether there was immunity for a Head of State in international law. Following an extensive research and analysis, we unanimously answered the question in the negative: no, there never was immunity in international law for anyone – including Heads of State – when facing charges of international crimes before an international court. There have been quite a number of complaints that the ICC since its inception in 1998, with tens of billions of Dollars , has only been able to secure very few convictions so far. What could be responsible for this state of affairs at the court? For one thing, I don’t know where the statistics of “tens of billions of dollars” comes from. You better verify the actual figure. Then again, every Lawyer knows that you don’t judge the performance of a legal system, by the number of convictions its criminal courts have rendered. I cannot not imagine how anyone could see it as a good thing, for a legal system to be renowned for a high rate of convictions. That was the hallmark of the inquisition! Some may reasonably worry about the opposite problem, in the event of a high rate of acquittals. But, an old legal aphorism may well tell us where the right mark should be. You will recall that old saying by William Gladstone, that it is better to acquit 10 guilty persons than to convict one innocent person. But, the statistics of the ICC comes nowhere close to a 10:1 ratio of verdicts in favour of acquittals. Although there have been some acquittals, there are more convictions than acquittals. Then again, I insist, that should not be the measure of justice. There are applications before the court that the Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu be arrested and tried by the court. How can this be achieved since Israel isn’t a member of the ICC? Can the sam e call for arrest be extended to Vladimir Putin, given the alleged crimes being committed in Ukraine? Does such a call for arrest bear upon the sovereignty of these countries? As I indicated earlier, the ICC has jurisdiction over nationals of its member States regardless of where those individuals commit crimes. ICC also has jurisdiction over crimes committed on the territory of its member States, even when the accused is a citizen of a State not party to the Rome Statute. It is on the latter ground, that the ICC has issued an arrest warrant in relation to crimes committed in Gaza and Ukraine. Beyond the foregoing considerations, there is an old doctrine of international law – going back to the time of the Roman Empire – to the effect that, States are entitled to punish persons or other States who violate legal norms that serve to preserve the international community or its member States. You don’t need the States being punished to give their consent, or to be members of the court doing the punishing. It was on that basis that nationals of Germany and Japan were prosecuted at the end of World War II in international courts established under legal instruments, to which Germany and Japan were not parties. The same goes for the ICC, in relation to nationals of Russia and Israel. Thank you Judge.

Israel’s siege of Northern Gaza and its violation of the recently-signed ceasefire deal in Lebanon were the people’s focus at Australia-wide rallies for Palestine in the 60th consecutive week of protests, including the United Nation’s declared International Day of Solidarity with Palestine on November 29. As the outgoing lame-duck United States President Joe Biden repeats that Israel has a “right to defend itself” and the White House is “working on a ceasefire deal”, former Israeli defence minister Moshe Ya’alon said . Pressed to retract by Israel’s Channel 12, Ya’alon refused. he said, adding, “It’s hard for me to say that”. He blamed “politicians” who, he says, are instructing the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) to “carry out what are defined as war crimes”. He said they include “evacuate[ing] the population for [ostensible] operational activities” but which are really aimed at reviving Jewish settlement in the strip. reported Ya’alon’s interview in which he also said the arrest warrant put out against Benjamin Netanyahu was justified. He said the International Criminal Court has a list of other officials from defense and politics who will be investigated for war crimes. If it was up to him, Ya’alon said, far-right ministers Bezalel Smotrich and Itamar Ben Gvir would have been arrested “some time ago”. The Gaza Health Ministry estimates the death toll at more than 44,000, including 13,000 children. But in July that it is not implausible to estimate that up to 186,000 or even more deaths could be attributable to the current conflict in Gaza — around 8% of the total population. Israel targeted and killed three more World Central Kitchen aid workers in Khan Younis, southern Gaza, on November 29. Consequently, aid deliveries there have been stopped and in the rest of the Strip have “ ”. In October an average of just 37 trucks per day entered Gaza, and in the first week of November that had only lifted to an average of 69 a day, well below the average of the already insufficient 500 a day entering Gaza before October 7, 2023, reported the . Protesters in marked International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People with a lively march of more than 800 people, reports Alex Bainbridge. The chant "While you are shopping, bombs are dropping" was given visceral meaning when the protesters held a sit-down and heard speeches in the Queen Street mall. The local Healthcare Workers for Palestine group began by putting faces and names to those being killed in Gaza in a series of presentations. Greens candidate Remah Naji and Socialist Alliance Senate candidate Jonathan Strauss, who both say stopping Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza is a critical election issue, spoke to protesters. Jim McIlroy reports that the 60th weekly rally in at Hyde Park on December 1, organised by the Palestine Action Group, focussed on the theme: “Stop the genocide, stop the war and lock up Netanyahu!” A sudden heavy storm did not deter protesters from continuing their march through the CBD. A few days earlier, about 70 people rallied near the Prime Minister’s residence in Kirribilli, marking the partition of Palestine in 1947, Rachel Evans reports. The protest was led by anti-genocide organising group “The People” and was chaired by Wollongong Friends of Palestine activist Labiba Abdellatif. Speakers included Nour Salman, Naarm/Melbourne-based Palestine activist and expert on South-West Asia and North Africa affairs; Ihab Abu Ibrahim, Naarm-based Palestinian activist; Markela Panegyres, University of Sydney academic and National Tertiary Education Union for Palestine activist; Elizabeth Jarrett, Gumabynggirr, Bundjalung, Dunghutti woman, who recently established the Sydney Basin Tent Embassy at Victoria Park. Activists in organised a vigil to mark the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People on November 29, reports Jordan Ellis. Healthcare workers organised a rally to highlight that more than 1000 doctors and nurses have been killed by Israel in one year. Israeli forces have arrested, tortured and executed more than 300 healthcare workers in prisons. Highly regarded Gazan surgeon Dr Adnan al Bursh was tortured to death while held in Israeli military custody in October. Dr John Guy, from HealthWorkers for Palestine Adelaide, said: “We must come together as health workers. Israel’s attacks on hospitals and health care workers are uniquely iniquitous, and a war crime. We have a responsibility to call it out.” The protest was part of a by healthcare workers from November 29 to December 1, with rallies in seven cities. A few days before, pro-Palestine activists occupied the office of weapons manufacturer BAE Systems in Kaurna Yerta to protest the company’s complicity in Israel’s genocide. BAE Systems manufacturers military weapons and equipment, including parts for F-35 fighter jets, military drones and M109 Howitzer long range artillery. These weapons have been used to kill thousands of Palestinians, including 17,000 children. Protesters called on BAE Systems and other weapons manufacturers to stop supplying arms and parts to Israel, and called on the Australian government to cancel all agreements with weapons manufacturers. “These companies have shown that their priority is corporate profits at all costs, even if that cost is ethnic cleansing ... Stop arming Israel,” organiser said. A vigil for scholasticide in Gaza was held outside the South Australian Department of Education on December 2. Scholasticide refers to the intended mass destruction of education. "In the last year, Israel has killed thousands of students and teachers, more than 600,000 students have been deprived of schooling, at least 90% of schools have been damaged or destroyed and all universities and higher education institutions have been destroyed." Thousands marched in on December 1, reports Jordan AK on the 60th week of continuous protest. Margaret Beavis, Vice-President of the Medical Association for Prevention of War and co-chair of the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons, expressed dismay over the relentless attacks on health infrastructure and workers in Palestine. Beavis praised Palestinian healthcare workers for their dedication, professionalism and courage and expressed horror for the hundreds of Palestinian healthcare workers who have been disappeared, or imprisoned in abject conditions of "overcrowding, neglect, malnutrition, violence, torture, humiliation and abuse". She said this should be a wake up call to health practitioners across the globe. Rally Chair Mai Saif thanked rally-goers for their enduring dedication and commitment in taking to the streets in protest: “The media creates it own propaganda, we know our government is complicit in genocide ... but it is our actions every week that is making a change.” She pointed to the Victorian government’s announcement that it was cutting ties with Israeli weapons manufacturer Elbit Systems. “This would never have happened [without the rallies].” December 1 also coincides with the annual flag-raising ceremony of the West Papuan Morning Star flag. West Papuan activist Cyndi Makabory spoke about its significance in the context of Indonesian colonialism. “Every year on December 1, the Morning Star rises again. No matter the repression, no matter the threat, this symbol of defiance cannot be repressed,” he explained. “Like Palestinians, for Papuans, the Morning Star is more than a flag; it is our people; it is our pulse; it is our breath; our unbreakable will to be free; and in the hearts of those who raise it is the same unshakable cry for justice from the forest of West Papua to the river and sea of Palestine, and to the coast of so-called Australia and beyond." Other speakers included Uncle Robbie Thorpe, medical scientist Ola Aladassi from the Palestinian Australian New Zealand Medical Association, medical worker and unionist Eleana Ni Mhurchu and Aviva Tuffield, who helped organise . Protesters were urged to turn out in numbers for the December 8 rally.

Projected as a top-10 draft pick, the 6-foot-5, 212-pound McMillan finished his illustrious career at Arizona with 3,423 receiving yards, breaking the mark set by Bobby Wade (3,351). In three seasons, the Hawaii native also posted the fourth-most catches (213) and third-most touchdowns (26) in school history. "Wildcat Nation, this journey has been everything I dreamed of and more," McMillan wrote on Instagram. "From the moment I committed to the University of Arizona, to every second spent wearing that Arizona jersey ... it's been an absolute honor. "The University of Arizona has provided me with the platform to grow and chase my dreams. ... Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

But true to form, Refund Brother chose to address the situation with his typical humor and humility.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — After struggling to run the ball consistently all season, the Los Angeles Rams finally made some progress on the ground in New Orleans. Kyren Williams and rookie Blake Corum carried the Rams (6-6) to a 21-14 win that kept them squarely in the playoff race for another week. Los Angeles racked up a season-high 156 yards rushing against the Saints, with Williams going for 104 yards and a touchdown while Corum added 42 yards on a season high-tying eight carries. The game was the inverse of most afternoons this season for the Rams, who came into the week averaging fewer than 100 yards rushing per game. The running game was sturdy and productive, while Matthew Stafford and his receivers struggled to get into a rhythm at the Superdome. Coach Sean McVay always prefers to use his run game to set up the pass, and it finally worked for once this season. “I thought Kyren ran really well," McVay said. “I thought Corum ran really well. I thought our offensive line set the line of scrimmage in the run game. We really started slow in the pass game, but I thought Matthew was excellent in the second half. We were able to get some different things off of those run actions going, and that ended up being the difference in the game.” Not coincidentally, the Rams' running game worked well on the Sunday when the offensive line finally had a starting five uncompromised by injuries or suspension for the first time all season. Right tackle Rob Havenstein returned from an ankle injury, making the group whole around rookie center Beaux Limmer, who has beaten out high-priced free agent Jonah Jackson for a starting job. The Rams still had yet another slow start in a season full of them. They ran only three plays in the entire first quarter, and they were held scoreless in the first half when their other two drives resulted in a turnover on downs and a punt. But Los Angeles rebounded with an 11-play scoring drive to open the second half featuring seven runs by Williams. He eventually moved up to fifth in the NFL with 926 yards rushing despite averaging just 4.2 yards per carry — nearly a yard less than he had last season, and the lowest average among the league's top 10 rushers this season. The Rams have thrived without a strong rushing attack before: They averaged just 99.0 yards per game on the ground, ranking 25th in the NFL, during their Super Bowl championship season in 2021-22. But McVay prefers his first option to be a strong running attack, which he had during his first three seasons in charge with Todd Gurley in the backfield and Andrew Whitworth at left tackle. “Anytime the guys up front are moving them, and (Williams) is making great reads and moves on the second level, then that is a fun feeling for the offense," Stafford said. “It’s great when you can hand the ball off and get big creases. We converted when we needed to in short-yardage stuff. I thought our guys did a really great job up front, and Kyren ran it great.” What's working The Rams have struggled in the red zone all season, but they scored touchdowns on all three trips in New Orleans. They did it by committing to the run game up the middle, setting up TD passes on the outside to Demarcus Robinson and Puka Nacua. What needs help Alvin Kamara racked up 112 yards rushing in the latest strong game by an opposing running back. Los Angeles is 28th in the league against the run, allowing 144.2 yards rushing per game — including 194 per game over the past three weeks. Stock up Rookie edge rusher Jared Verse had another outstanding game, racking up five tackles, three quarterback hits and numerous big plays that don't show up on stat sheets. He capped the performance by hitting Derek Carr from behind and forcing an incompletion from the Los Angeles 9 on New Orleans' final play. Stock down Cornerback Darious Williams gave up a touchdown pass to Marquez Valdes-Scantling and the ensuing 2-point conversion pass to Dante Pettis early in the fourth quarter, capping a second straight rough week for the free-agent signee. Williams is the Rams' best cornerback, but they haven't had an above-average shutdown pass defender since trading Jalen Ramsey. Los Angeles added cornerback depth Monday, claiming 2023 first-round pick Emmanuel Forbes off waivers from Washington. Injuries Robinson injured his hand during the game, and Stafford incurred a lateral ankle sprain. McVay said he doesn't expect either injury to affect the veterans' preparations this week. Key number 17 — Cooper Kupp's yards receiving. That's his lowest total in a game in which he didn't get injured since Oct. 18, 2020. Kupp had only six targets, few downfield routes and curiously scant chances to make big plays. Next steps The Rams are home underdogs this week against powerhouse Buffalo, followed by a Thursday night game at San Francisco. Getting even one win out of these two matchups will be difficult, but probably necessary to keep pace with Seattle and Arizona in the NFC West. ___ AP NFL: https://apnews.com/NFL Greg Beacham, The Associated PressDespite the seeming challenges at home, Nigerian Lawyers and Judges have, over the years, distinguished themselves, including at being Prosecutors, Judges and Chief Justices of some African countries. This chain of achievements has not yet ended. Onikepo Braithwaite and Jude Igbanoi sought out one of these rare gems who rose from the Nigerian legal sphere, Judge Chile Eboe-Osuji, the first black and African President of the International Criminal Court, seated at The Hague, Netherlands (ICC). Called to the Nigerian and Canadian Bars, Judge Eboe-Osuji is actually home-grown. He graduated from the University of Calabar, practiced in Port Harcourt before going abroad for his Masters and subsequently, his Doctorate. In 1997, Judge Eboe-Osuji started worked at the UN where he served in various capacities. It was from the UN that he was elected to serve as a Judge of the ICC in 2012. He distinguished himself and earned the confidence of his fellow Judges at the Court, and in 2018, they elected him as the 4th President of the Court where he presided over sensitive international criminal cases during his three year tenure which ended in 2018. The author of a book titled “End of Immunity”, a detailed discussion on the history of international law on immunity, Judge Eboe-Osuji shares his views on several issues, including the ICC issuing an arrest warrant in relation to crimes committed in Gaza and Ukraine Judge, kindly, give us an overview of your career and how you ended up as the 4th President of the International Criminal Court at The Hague To summarise, starting with my educational background: I received my LLB degree from the University of Calabar in 1985. Did the legal professional training course at the Nigerian Law School, and was called to the Bar in 1986. And, so, yes, I’m a member of the “notorious” Call Class of ’86. I did my National Youth Service in Port Harcourt and after that, I went to Canada two years later. I did my LLM degree at McGill University in Canada; and eventually, my PhD much, much later at the University of Amsterdam in the Netherlands. Regarding my legal work, before going to Canada, I practised law in Port Harcourt from 1986 to 1988. In Canada, I re-qualified, got called to the Bar and practised law in both Vancouver and Toronto. Come 1997, I was recruited to work at the UN International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda, as a Prosecution Counsel. I was the first Nigerian to be recruited as a Prosecutor, in an International Tribunal. Later, I also worked as a Prosecutor at the Special Court for Sierra Leone in Freetown. I eventually ended up in Geneva working as the Senior Legal Advisor to the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights. It was from that last position that I was elected to serve as a Judge of the International Criminal Court, starting in 2012 – the first Nigerian to serve as an ICC Judge. In 2018, my fellow Judges at the ICC, elected me to serve as Court’s President. That was the first and the only time, that a black person and an African served in the position. Why does it appear as if Nigerians/Africans do not play many roles in these international courts unless their springboard is from outside Nigeria, from places such as UK, Europe, USA, Canada etc? I can’t speak to the experience of other Africans. Regarding Nigerians, however, I will insist that a Nigerian is a Nigerian. I don’t accept the mindset of finding reasons to draw distinctions between Nigerians – “What’s her ethnic group? What’s his religion? Is she ‘home-based’ or a ‘Diasporan?” and so on. Nigerians are driven by one circumstance or another, to ply their trades where they do. Naturally, when the time comes to dive into the swimming pool of opportunity, you leap from springboard on which you stand. And, when I speak of swimming pool of opportunity, I must stress that these are veritable swimming pools – often infested with things that can bite you – in which you must swim well, lest you sink or drown. The more interesting question, though, should be why it is that Nigerian Lawyers don’t serve as Judges in the various international courts as frequently as Nigeria’s size commands – given a population of over 220 million people and more than 200,000 Lawyers according to certain estimates. It has been a hit-and-miss; a once-in-a-blue-moon story. The primary reason for the spotty showing, is because these positions are filled through highly competitive international elections. But, more often than not, those who nominate Nigeria’s candidates will brush aside the best candidates available – and then send forward candidates on the basis of other non-professional considerations. The candidate then goes to compete and ends up losing, because they were competing with better candidates from the other countries. And, the cycle is repeated next time. What are the core objectives of the ICC? How well would you say the court has done in achieving same? The core objective of the ICC is to be a court of last resort, which insists on accountability when international crimes – that is, aggression, genocide, crimes against humanity, and war crimes – have been committed and the national authorities with the primary jurisdiction either fail to investigate and prosecute, or fail to do so genuinely. So far, the ICC has done remarkably well, if we all keep in mind what the court was set up to do – also keeping in mind the structures of its jurisdiction. Often, people impose their own interpretations of the court’s mandate – as well as their own expectations upon the court – without having actually read the court’s statute to see what its mandate really is, and the framework that constrains what the court is permitted to do. Here, we must consider that the court can exercise jurisdiction only in any of the following circumstances: first, over nationals of member States wherever those nationals commit international crimes; second, over individuals who commit international crimes on the territory of a member State of the court, even when the State of nationality of the culprit is not a member State of the court. The court’s jurisdiction over Russian nationals for alleged crimes committed in Ukraine- and the jurisdiction over Israeli nationals for alleged crimes committed in Gaza – come under this rubric. A third way to seise the court of jurisdiction is when the UN Security Council refers a case to the ICC, regardless of the nationality of the territory or of the accused person; and it doesn’t matter that the State concerned is not a party to the Rome Statute. The record of the court’s activities, shows that it has generally done quite well in discharging its mandate. The court’s biggest image problem, comes from two primary sources. The first is that, when the court seeks to subject the leaders of a country to accountability – as it must when the occasion requires – those people invariably unleash the most ferocious propaganda campaigns against the court, regardless of the truth. The second source of image problem comes from the failings of the court’s member States, who fail to play their own parts – often due to their own political choices. In a strange, unexplained phenomenon, the court gets blamed for those failings of the States. Take for instance, arrest warrants. The court issues two arrest warrants in legally identical circumstances: one against the leader of an ally, the other against the leader of an adversary State. What often happens is that an ICC member State – or a State with interest – will cheer the court for the arrest warrant against the adversary, and then simultaneously vilify the court for the arrest warrant against the ally. We see this phenomenon in the arrest warrants against Mr Putin and Mr Netanyahu. And, the vilification is based on nothing more than political gas fire – not on the facts and the law. No one ever says, “No the facts do not support the arrest warrant”. It is always other arguments – mostly political noises. And, some gullible people end up believing the tripe. Even some of the questions in this interview, reveal the extent to which the unwary seem to believe or unintentionally relay these campaigns against the court. It is on record that the USA, UK, Russia and a few other major countries are neither members of the ICC, nor signatories to the enabling statutes, particularly the Rome Statute. This appears to lend credence to the assumption that the court was set up mainly to hound African leaders and leaders from third world countries. To what extent would you say this assumption is justified? The UK is a member State of the court. So is France, Germany, Italy, Spain and all of Western Europe. By regional distribution, there are 33 African States, 28 States from Latin America and the Caribbean, 25 from Western Europe and their kindred States (including Canada, Australia and New Zealand), 19 from the Asia-Pacific region, and 19 from Eastern Europe. All for a total of 124 States. That number is 47 States more than the 77 States that have accepted the compulsory jurisdiction of the International Court of Justice. So, the premise of concern is not borne out, when it is contended that the preferences of any State – such as US, Russia, China or India – to not ratify the Rome Statute lend credence to the argument that the ICC was set up “mainly to hound” the leaders of developing countries. But, even in itself the concern that the court “hounds” the leaders of African States is a mistaken view. For one thing, there are arrest warrants now out for the President of Russia and one of his Ministers; as well as for the Prime Minister of Israel and his former Defence Minister. These are not African leaders. Finally, I was not impressed with the concern, which was rife at some point, that the Court was too focused on Africa. The complaint was not impressive, because the argument was never that the crimes never occurred. Nor was the concern lodged from the perspective of the African victims of atrocities. No one ever pointed out one African victim of atrocities, who complained that the ICC should not be doing the cases it was doing. I remember a discussion I once had in 2018 or 2019 with a Rwandan official who complained that the ICC was “too focused on Africans.” It turned out that the official was Tutsi. I asked him whether he realised that the logic of his complaint would have meant that the Rwandan Genocide Tribunal should not have done its work, because that work was “too focused on Africans.” But, we cannot ignore the fact that the crimes we are talking about here, are crimes which Africans committed against Africans. ICC takes them up, only because the national system concerned did not investigate or prosecute. You recently authored a Book ‘End of Immunity’. Tell us briefly about the Book which we are told is a must read, and whether you agree that certain leaders are not accountable for their actions. Some have said that if an African leader did a quarter of what Netanyahu has done to the Palestinians or Putin to the Ukrainians, they would be facing sanctions by now, if not, arrest for offences like genocide and crimes against humanity. Take Charles Taylor of Liberia for example; he bagged a 50 year jail sentence for his crimes against humanity etc, while some countries are defending Netanyahu for his own atrocities. Why the double standards? Will the stronger world leaders ever be made accountable? I’m grateful to those who see my new book, End of Immunity, as a must read. A family member who is a medical doctor and a friend who is an engineer, both of whom have read the book, said very much the same thing about the book. I intentionally wrote the book in a style and language that make it accessible to everyone – and not only to Lawyers. My engineer friend told me that his copy was delivered to him at 11:30 pm and he made the “mistake” of starting to read it then – he couldn’t put it down. Regarding the subject-matter, there are some people who mistakenly think that international law had recognised immunity for Heads of State alleged to have committed international crimes. The book is an in-depth exposé of the history of international law on that question. And, it reveals that, at no point had international law ever recognised immunity for even Heads of State who are under investigation or prosecution before an international court for international crimes. Quite the contrary, at every opportunity – since 1919 – the international community had rejected such immunity. That, in a nutshell, is the central story of the book. But, it needed telling with all the historical records that demonstrate the proposition. How can we make our own Nigerian leaders accountable? It depends on the subject-matter. In relation to ordinary crimes, immunity is often provided in the Constitution of nations. Many national Constitutions – not only Nigeria’s – provide that while in office the Head of State may not be prosecuted for ordinary crimes. That privilege is exclusively reserved, for Heads of State within national law. But, for international crimes, there is no immunity for anyone including heads of State. So, any Nigerian – including the President – who is implicated in a genocide, crimes against humanity or war crimes, should expect to be tried at the ICC. There is no immunity. It is that simple. There was no ICC during the Nigerian civil war. I have no doubt at all that, had the court existed at the time, Nigeria’s leaders would have found themselves under investigation and prosecution at the ICC. There’s no doubt at all about that. So, it is important to ensure that that national experience is never repeated. Kindly, share with us a few cases which you adjudicated upon at the ICC that impacted on global diplomacy in any way. There was the Kenyan case involving Ruto and Kenyatta, even before you became President of the ICC. One matter that I adjudicated at the ICC that remains topical, was the question of immunity in relation to President Omar Al-Bashir of Sudan. I was the presiding Judge of the appellate chamber of the ICC, when the question was presented to the Appeals Chamber for the first time. The question was whether there was immunity for a Head of State in international law. Following an extensive research and analysis, we unanimously answered the question in the negative: no, there never was immunity in international law for anyone – including Heads of State – when facing charges of international crimes before an international court. There have been quite a number of complaints that the ICC since its inception in 1998, with tens of billions of Dollars , has only been able to secure very few convictions so far. What could be responsible for this state of affairs at the court? For one thing, I don’t know where the statistics of “tens of billions of dollars” comes from. You better verify the actual figure. Then again, every Lawyer knows that you don’t judge the performance of a legal system, by the number of convictions its criminal courts have rendered. I cannot not imagine how anyone could see it as a good thing, for a legal system to be renowned for a high rate of convictions. That was the hallmark of the inquisition! Some may reasonably worry about the opposite problem, in the event of a high rate of acquittals. But, an old legal aphorism may well tell us where the right mark should be. You will recall that old saying by William Gladstone, that it is better to acquit 10 guilty persons than to convict one innocent person. But, the statistics of the ICC comes nowhere close to a 10:1 ratio of verdicts in favour of acquittals. Although there have been some acquittals, there are more convictions than acquittals. Then again, I insist, that should not be the measure of justice. There are applications before the court that the Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu be arrested and tried by the court. How can this be achieved since Israel isn’t a member of the ICC? Can the sam e call for arrest be extended to Vladimir Putin, given the alleged crimes being committed in Ukraine? Does such a call for arrest bear upon the sovereignty of these countries? As I indicated earlier, the ICC has jurisdiction over nationals of its member States regardless of where those individuals commit crimes. ICC also has jurisdiction over crimes committed on the territory of its member States, even when the accused is a citizen of a State not party to the Rome Statute. It is on the latter ground, that the ICC has issued an arrest warrant in relation to crimes committed in Gaza and Ukraine. Beyond the foregoing considerations, there is an old doctrine of international law – going back to the time of the Roman Empire – to the effect that, States are entitled to punish persons or other States who violate legal norms that serve to preserve the international community or its member States. You don’t need the States being punished to give their consent, or to be members of the court doing the punishing. It was on that basis that nationals of Germany and Japan were prosecuted at the end of World War II in international courts established under legal instruments, to which Germany and Japan were not parties. The same goes for the ICC, in relation to nationals of Russia and Israel. Thank you Judge.

Israel’s siege of Northern Gaza and its violation of the recently-signed ceasefire deal in Lebanon were the people’s focus at Australia-wide rallies for Palestine in the 60th consecutive week of protests, including the United Nation’s declared International Day of Solidarity with Palestine on November 29. As the outgoing lame-duck United States President Joe Biden repeats that Israel has a “right to defend itself” and the White House is “working on a ceasefire deal”, former Israeli defence minister Moshe Ya’alon said . Pressed to retract by Israel’s Channel 12, Ya’alon refused. he said, adding, “It’s hard for me to say that”. He blamed “politicians” who, he says, are instructing the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) to “carry out what are defined as war crimes”. He said they include “evacuate[ing] the population for [ostensible] operational activities” but which are really aimed at reviving Jewish settlement in the strip. reported Ya’alon’s interview in which he also said the arrest warrant put out against Benjamin Netanyahu was justified. He said the International Criminal Court has a list of other officials from defense and politics who will be investigated for war crimes. If it was up to him, Ya’alon said, far-right ministers Bezalel Smotrich and Itamar Ben Gvir would have been arrested “some time ago”. The Gaza Health Ministry estimates the death toll at more than 44,000, including 13,000 children. But in July that it is not implausible to estimate that up to 186,000 or even more deaths could be attributable to the current conflict in Gaza — around 8% of the total population. Israel targeted and killed three more World Central Kitchen aid workers in Khan Younis, southern Gaza, on November 29. Consequently, aid deliveries there have been stopped and in the rest of the Strip have “ ”. In October an average of just 37 trucks per day entered Gaza, and in the first week of November that had only lifted to an average of 69 a day, well below the average of the already insufficient 500 a day entering Gaza before October 7, 2023, reported the . Protesters in marked International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People with a lively march of more than 800 people, reports Alex Bainbridge. The chant "While you are shopping, bombs are dropping" was given visceral meaning when the protesters held a sit-down and heard speeches in the Queen Street mall. The local Healthcare Workers for Palestine group began by putting faces and names to those being killed in Gaza in a series of presentations. Greens candidate Remah Naji and Socialist Alliance Senate candidate Jonathan Strauss, who both say stopping Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza is a critical election issue, spoke to protesters. Jim McIlroy reports that the 60th weekly rally in at Hyde Park on December 1, organised by the Palestine Action Group, focussed on the theme: “Stop the genocide, stop the war and lock up Netanyahu!” A sudden heavy storm did not deter protesters from continuing their march through the CBD. A few days earlier, about 70 people rallied near the Prime Minister’s residence in Kirribilli, marking the partition of Palestine in 1947, Rachel Evans reports. The protest was led by anti-genocide organising group “The People” and was chaired by Wollongong Friends of Palestine activist Labiba Abdellatif. Speakers included Nour Salman, Naarm/Melbourne-based Palestine activist and expert on South-West Asia and North Africa affairs; Ihab Abu Ibrahim, Naarm-based Palestinian activist; Markela Panegyres, University of Sydney academic and National Tertiary Education Union for Palestine activist; Elizabeth Jarrett, Gumabynggirr, Bundjalung, Dunghutti woman, who recently established the Sydney Basin Tent Embassy at Victoria Park. Activists in organised a vigil to mark the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People on November 29, reports Jordan Ellis. Healthcare workers organised a rally to highlight that more than 1000 doctors and nurses have been killed by Israel in one year. Israeli forces have arrested, tortured and executed more than 300 healthcare workers in prisons. Highly regarded Gazan surgeon Dr Adnan al Bursh was tortured to death while held in Israeli military custody in October. Dr John Guy, from HealthWorkers for Palestine Adelaide, said: “We must come together as health workers. Israel’s attacks on hospitals and health care workers are uniquely iniquitous, and a war crime. We have a responsibility to call it out.” The protest was part of a by healthcare workers from November 29 to December 1, with rallies in seven cities. A few days before, pro-Palestine activists occupied the office of weapons manufacturer BAE Systems in Kaurna Yerta to protest the company’s complicity in Israel’s genocide. BAE Systems manufacturers military weapons and equipment, including parts for F-35 fighter jets, military drones and M109 Howitzer long range artillery. These weapons have been used to kill thousands of Palestinians, including 17,000 children. Protesters called on BAE Systems and other weapons manufacturers to stop supplying arms and parts to Israel, and called on the Australian government to cancel all agreements with weapons manufacturers. “These companies have shown that their priority is corporate profits at all costs, even if that cost is ethnic cleansing ... Stop arming Israel,” organiser said. A vigil for scholasticide in Gaza was held outside the South Australian Department of Education on December 2. Scholasticide refers to the intended mass destruction of education. "In the last year, Israel has killed thousands of students and teachers, more than 600,000 students have been deprived of schooling, at least 90% of schools have been damaged or destroyed and all universities and higher education institutions have been destroyed." Thousands marched in on December 1, reports Jordan AK on the 60th week of continuous protest. Margaret Beavis, Vice-President of the Medical Association for Prevention of War and co-chair of the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons, expressed dismay over the relentless attacks on health infrastructure and workers in Palestine. Beavis praised Palestinian healthcare workers for their dedication, professionalism and courage and expressed horror for the hundreds of Palestinian healthcare workers who have been disappeared, or imprisoned in abject conditions of "overcrowding, neglect, malnutrition, violence, torture, humiliation and abuse". She said this should be a wake up call to health practitioners across the globe. Rally Chair Mai Saif thanked rally-goers for their enduring dedication and commitment in taking to the streets in protest: “The media creates it own propaganda, we know our government is complicit in genocide ... but it is our actions every week that is making a change.” She pointed to the Victorian government’s announcement that it was cutting ties with Israeli weapons manufacturer Elbit Systems. “This would never have happened [without the rallies].” December 1 also coincides with the annual flag-raising ceremony of the West Papuan Morning Star flag. West Papuan activist Cyndi Makabory spoke about its significance in the context of Indonesian colonialism. “Every year on December 1, the Morning Star rises again. No matter the repression, no matter the threat, this symbol of defiance cannot be repressed,” he explained. “Like Palestinians, for Papuans, the Morning Star is more than a flag; it is our people; it is our pulse; it is our breath; our unbreakable will to be free; and in the hearts of those who raise it is the same unshakable cry for justice from the forest of West Papua to the river and sea of Palestine, and to the coast of so-called Australia and beyond." Other speakers included Uncle Robbie Thorpe, medical scientist Ola Aladassi from the Palestinian Australian New Zealand Medical Association, medical worker and unionist Eleana Ni Mhurchu and Aviva Tuffield, who helped organise . Protesters were urged to turn out in numbers for the December 8 rally.
