COMMISSION DES DROITS DE L’HOMME DES NATIONS UNIES
59ème session, 17 Mars – 25 Avril 2003, 31 mars 2003
Depuis la dernière session de la Commission des droits de l’homme, malgré vos recommandations, notamment sur l’expansion et l’implantation de colonies dans les territoires occupés palestiniens et la cessation de toute violation du droit humanitaire, la situation dans les territoires occupés palestiniens demeure tragique. Les violations flagrantes des droits de l’homme et du droit humanitaire perdurent en toute impunité.
The ICJ urges the Sub-Commission on the Promotion and Protection of Human Rights to ensure that initiatives and measures taken by States to counter terrorism do not contravene or undermine human rights and principles of international law.

The ICJ issued a statement on Israel and the Palestinian Occupied territories.
The time is right for an International Criminal Court, and the momentum is strong, says the ICJ.
The General Assembly of the United Nations will convene an Ad Hoc Committee at the U N Headquarters in New York from 3 to 13 April 1995, and, if necessary, from 14 to 25 August 1995, to discuss the establishment of such a court.
In June 1994, the International Law Commission (ILC) finalised its consideration of the issue and proposed a Revised Draft Statute to the General Assembly. During the last General Assembly meeting, States were requested to comment on the Statute by 15 March 1995.
