ABSTRACT

This researched paper is an exposure of key legal challenges facing the international criminal justice framework and its effectiveness in the 21^st Century. The Arab-Israeli war, Israel Palestinian War, Israel-Hamas War, Israel versus Islam nations in the Middle East, have been historical events whose legal solution appear always to be dwindling with time. It is in the interest of the author to open up some of the critical problematic questions under discussion by international lawyers and diplomats about the atrocities going on in the Middle East region and especially in Palestine and Israel. However, the article does not give an illusion of an immediate legal solution to the problem that has been affecting many civilians, civilian populations with their objects being destroyed with impunity. It is noted that the hostilities taking place in the Gaza Strip and the entire region present a very delicate situation in the development of international criminal justice system. It is in the interest of the article to provide points for intellectual considerations before making conclusions. You can download the entire research.
