Description: APPALLED at ever-growing violations of innumerable international laws;

SHOCKED that no judicial redress for such violations may be obtained internationally;

THEREFORE, THE WORLD ASSEMBLY:

1) DEFINES for the strict purposes of this Resolution:
“International Law”: the sum of all supra-national laws that are binding on all WA Members;
“Multi-Party Agreements”: supra-national documents, to which only WA Members are signatories, and for which all parties involved agreed that the terms of said documents would be binding on all said parties, at the occasion of its ratification.

2) MANDATES any and all violations of international law and multi-party agreements be first pursued to the fullest extent of the law at the national level and, where applicable & allowable, later at a multi-party level;

3) ESTABLISHES that inhabitants of WA Member States, whether as individuals or groups, shall have the ability to ask for redress of violations of international law at an extra-national level, only after all venues of appeal at the national level have been exhausted.

4) FURTHER ESTABLISHES nation(s) may pursue in extra-national venues complaints against other nation(s) over violations of international law or multi-party agreements only if all parties freely agree, in no uncertain terms, to an extra-national arbitration;

5) EMPHASIZES WA-created extra-national venues shall never hear complaints of inhabitants of WA Member States over purely domestic issues, defined as issues entirely outside the scope of international law.

6) ENACTS that, strictly for the furtherance of the previous operative clauses, the International Court of Justice (ICJ) is hereby established:

a) It shall function as the preferred venue of extra-national arbitration with decisions based solely on proper application & adjudication of international law and multi-party agreements;

b) The ICJ may refuse to hear particular cases as deemed appropriate; full legal explanations of its refusal shall be stated and may include, but are not limited to, clear lack of international law issues and better dispensation of Justice in a different judicial setting;

c) ICJ rulings shall have precedential value: the interpretation made by the ICJ on any given case shall serve as the most useful guide on any other related case; precedent shall remain informal and it shall never supercede WA law; times can blind persons to certain truths and later generations can see that interpretations once thought necessary & proper are outdated. As the WA endures, persons in every generation can invoke the principles of international law in their own search for greater freedom;

d) No nation shall ever be forced by means of military force or any other form of threat to territorial sovereignty to deliver any of its citizens to ICJ hearings and/or judgments or to hand over said citizen(s) to a punishment ordered by the ICJ; the ICJ also guarantees no ICJ ruling shall entail the death penalty;

e) Nations refusing to hand over said citizens may have the ICJ suggest sanctions upon said nations; all nations are very strongly urged to comply with the terms of such sanctions, in the true interests of Justice; such sanctions shall have an overriding concern for promotion, non-disturbance & maintenance of Peace.
