Our goals

One year to make the rulings bite

No new cases: for twelve months the Council builds the bodies that enforce the rulings already won, across Palestine, Sudan, the Rohingya, the Uyghurs and India's Muslims. AI does every action; a Management and Supervision Team of 5 approves it before it goes out.

Lessons

What was tried, and what we do instead

ICJ orders enforced through the Security Council

Partial, reversible arms suspensions and EU trade action

Hague Group and Bogotá pledges

Action through the OIC's consensus

Legal action alone

Leaving acting states exposed to US punishment

One package of Muslim-state diplomacy on every case

Darfur-only arms embargo and Quad mediation

Risks

What could stop us, and what we do about it

The US punishes states and banks that act, through sanctions on ICC staff, UN experts or Compact members.

Few willing states supply Israel, the RSF or the junta, so the measures cost little.

Putting Uyghurs and India on one platform with Gaza and Sudan makes states refuse to join.

Zakat, waqf or relief funds are diverted, frozen or tainted by sanctions or interest.

Witnesses, survivors and legal-aid clients are exposed to reprisals or surveillance.
