  • Amal Clooney, Geoffrey Robertson QC and Bill Browder discuss a way forward for the global justice movement in the twenty-first century. This special event, recorded in April 2021 in partnership with Doughty Street Chambers, explores what Robertson calls a ‘plan B for human rights’. This would involve countries introducing and enforcing fresh laws to name, blame and shame human rights abusers, stripping them of their right to enter democratic nations, of the ill-gotten funds they seek to deposit in global banks, and barring them and their families from schools and hospitals in these countries.
    Expanding on the themes of his new book Bad People And How To Be Rid Of Them, Robertson makes the case for a group of laws known as Magnitsky legislation after Sergei Magnitsky, a lawyer who died in a Russian jail after exposing state corruption. Early versions of these laws have already been introduced in Britain, the US and Canada. As Robertson argues, the Magnitsky movement offers an effective way to punish people who have committed crimes against humanity, whether in America, Russia, China or Belarus. Good people, he urges, need to fight for them - in their own countries and elsewhere in the world.

      Read the "Komisar Report " and the documentary by the man hired by Browder who learned with terrible regret that he was creating complete propaganda for a genuine psychopath!!!

    Its upsetting that the worlds worst humanitarian crisis in the last 100 years is happening in Yemen and it was barely touched upon. Unfortunate there is so little awareness. It is not a "war with the Houthis". Worse yet, it is a man made humanitarian crisis, as a weapon of war.
    Nonetheless, I was comforted to see my studies summarised by Robertson, and to hear that is essentially doesn't work. The alternative sounds promising and will have its advantages, but still does not tackle the core of the issue. Impunity.

      Don't feel alone she is not standing for human rights at all. Browder is a complete liar and a tool for Imperialist Bankster theft of all rights and resources for psychopaths.

    “Look to me and be saved,
    you peoples from all corners of the earth;
    for I am God, there is no other.” - (Isaiah 45: 22) -
    We must therefore avoid all religions, even that of the Pope and Christianity, because religions are all led by the many false prophets who continue to mislead us. When Jesus alone (in the name of Immanuel) is the Son of man and the true prophet who was sent by the Lord God, to be always our one Teacher. Here follows a summary of his true teaching…
    “God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.” - (Jesus, at John 4: 24) -
    “In truth I tell you, anyone who gives heed to what I say and puts his trust in him who sent me, has hold of eternal life and does not come up for judgement, but has already passed from death to life.” - (at John 5: 24) -
    “Beware of false prophets, men who come to you dressed up as sheep while underneath they are savage wolves. You will recognize them by the fruits they bear.” - (at Matthew 7: 15-16) -
    “Do not call any man on earth ‘father’; for you have one Father and he is in heaven. Nor must you be called ‘teacher’; you have one Teacher, the Messiah.” - (Matthew 23: 9-10) -
    “Take care that no one misleads you: For many will come claiming my name…” - (Jesus, at Matthew 24: 4) -
    “Many false prophets will arise, and will mislead many; and as lawlessness spreads, men’s love for one another will grow cold. But the man who holds out to the end will be saved. And this gospel of the Kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the earth as a testimony to all nations; and then the end will come.” - (Matthew 24: 11-14) -
    “I am the way; I am the truth and I am life; no one comes to the Father except by me. If you knew me you would know my Father too.” - (John 14: 6-7) -
    “When you pray, go into a room by yourself, and shut the door. Pray to your Father who is there in the secret place; and your Father who sees what is secret will reward you.
    In your prayers do not go babbling on like the heathen, who imagine that the more they say the more likely they are to be heard.
    Do not imitate them. Your Father knows what your needs are before you ask him.
    This is how you should pray:
    Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name,
    Your kingdom come; your will be done, on earth as in heaven,
    Give us today our daily bread,
    Forgive us the wrong we have done, as we have forgiven those who have wronged us.
    And do not bring us to the test, but save us from the evil one.
    For yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory, for ever.
    Amen.
    For if you forgive others the wrongs they have done, your heavenly Father will also forgive you; but if you do not forgive others, then the wrongs you have done will not be forgiven by your Father.” - (at Matthew 6: 6-15) -
    “Pass no judgement, and you will not be judged. For as you judge others, so you will yourselves be judged, and whatever measure you deal out to others will be dealt back to you.” - (Matthew 7: 1-2) -
    “Truly I tell you; if anyone obeys my teaching he shall never know what it is to die.” - (John 8: 51) -
    “Always treat others as you would like them to treat you: that is the Law and the Prophets.
    Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life and only a few find it.” - (Matthew 7: 12-14) -
    “I am the gate; anyone who comes into the fold through me shall be safe. He shall go in and out and shall find pasturage.
    The thief comes only to steal, to kill, to destroy; I have come that men may have life, and may have it in all its fullness.” - (John 10: 9-10) -
    “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.” - (Matthew 7: 21) -
    “I am the resurrection and I am life. If a man has faith in me, even though he dies, he shall come to life; and anyone who is alive and has faith shall never die.” - (John 11: 25-26) -
    “I have not come to judge the world, but to save the world” - (John 12: 47) -
    “Whoever will acknowledge me before men, I will acknowledge him before my Father in heaven; and whoever disowns me before men, I will disown him before my Father in heaven.” - (Matthew 10: 32-34) -
    “Any plant that is not of my heavenly Father’s planting will be rooted up. Leave them alone; they are blind guides, and if one blind man guides another they will both fall into the ditch.” - (Matthew 15: 13-14) -
    “The disciples came to Jesus and asked, ‘Who is the greatest in the kingdom of Heaven?’
    He called a child, set him in front of them, and said, ‘I tell you this: unless you turn round and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of Heaven.
    Let a man humble himself till he is like this child, and he will be the greatest in the kingdom of Heaven. Whoever receives one such child in my name receives me. But if a man is a cause of stumbling to one of these little ones who have faith in me, it would be better for him to have a millstone hung round his neck and be drowned in the depths of the sea.
    Alas for the world that such causes of stumbling arise! Come they must, but woe betide the man through who they come!’” - (Mathew 18: 1-7) -
    “Though many are called, few are chosen.” - (Matthew 22: 14) -
    “An expert in the law, [a leading religious Pharisee] tested him with this question: ‘Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?’ He answered, ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind. That is the greatest commandment. It comes first. The second is like it: Love your neighbour as yourself.
    Everything in the Law and the Prophets hangs on these two commandments.’” - (Matthew 22: 35-40) -
    “There is no greater love than this, that a man should lay down his life for his friends.” - (John 15: 13) -
    “My task is to bear witness to the truth. For this I was born; for this I came into the world, and all who are not deaf to truth listen to my voice.” - (John 18: 37) -
    “One of the criminals who hung there also mocked and taunted him: ‘Aren’t you the Messiah? Save yourself, and us!’ But the other criminal rebuked him. ‘Have you no fear of God? You are under the same sentence as he. For us it is plain justice; we are paying the price for our misdeeds; but this man has done nothing wrong.’ And he said, ‘Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.’ He answered, “I tell you this: today you shall be with me in Paradise.’” - (Luke 23: 39-43) -
    “For it is my Father’s will that everyone who looks upon the Son and puts his faith in him shall possess eternal life; and I will raise him up on the last day” - (John 6: 40) -
    “Teach them to observe all that I have commanded you. And be assured, I am with you always, to the end of time.” - (Matthew 28: 20) -
    Yours, in true Spirit and in our one given prayer, 2gointruth, Friday the 7th of May, 2021: - (Matthew 5:14-16) - Where every minute (of both day and night) can be a new beginning for any one of us. Let it always be you. Pray to God often before it is too late.
