Authors

Nabeha Shaer

Abstract

In the Occupied Palestinian Territories, thousands of Palestinian children have been the subject of numerous human rights abuses through their subjugation to Israeli prisons and military court system. The International Criminal Court (ICC) must hear and prioritize the cases involving Israeli crimes against these Palestinian children. A review of the history of Palestine, an analysis of applicable international law, and a description of the role of the ICC will illustrate the necessity of the ICC's intervention on the crimes committed against the Palestinian children.
