Was the ICJ order to halt operations in Rafah from last week some sort of amendment to their ruling a few months back? Or something entirely different?

I'm dying to talk about it, but

What about a few indirect stories? You know, just as a treat

Obviously fuck these laws. And even if these laws state that universities cannot legally divest, they should divest anyway and say 'fuck you, take me to court'--but, with that aside, what are the actual details of these laws?

I know it varies state to state, but in PA, for example, where the UPenn encampment was raided this morning, the university says "Penn remains unequivocally opposed to divestment, and it is unlawful for institutions receiving funding from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania."

From what I can tell, there's just a 2016 law that states that the government of PA essentially can't do business with entities that have divested from Israel--but how does that legally prevent the entity from actually doing so on their part?

I keep seeing this claim that "It's illegal to divest, so we as a university can't do so. Tough luck." Not only is it ethically BS, but it seems to be a straight up lie, too?

Does anyone remember back in June/July 2022 when Kamala Harris -- I believe in an interview with Dana Bash on CNN -- said something like 'What are we supposed to do?!' after facing slight pushback over Dems not doing shit to try to codify roe v wade into law? Can't find it.

In 2022, when the 'international community' was going on and on about russia, which countries were refusing to fall in line? Like pakistan with the whole 'what are we your slaves' comment.

I couldve sworn there was a UN vote about condemning the invasion, but most of the countries chose not to?
