The ongoing International Criminal Court (ICC) and International Court of Justice (ICJ) cases against Israel reveal a problem more fundamental than the mistreatment of Israel. The cases illustrate the dangers of expanding the definition and role of international law beyond its severe limitations to reduce the sovereignty of nations. Ireland’s ICJ intervention highlights the destructiveness of reinventing international law into a utopian solution for the world’s ills.
Congratulations to Reb Aharon Friedman on this insightful and eloquently written article. Clearly, as the Beit Din Tzedek of the Edah ha-Charedit (among many other halakhic authorities) has announced, the kiddushin that Reb Aharon offered Ms. Tamar Epstein was (and remains) a valid kiddushin.
