I mention this because Justice Goldstone sat on a panel of international judges at New England last year - seeing him in the ICTY building, a recognizable face, was an uncanny experience.

Justice Goldstone
To my New England friends - I attended a lecture last week given by Justice Goldstone, the South African judge who helped to draft the post-apartheid Constitution, and was the Chief ICTY Prosecutor from 1994 to 1996. Of significance to my case now, he signed the indictments against Radovan Karadzic and Ratko Mladic for the Srebrenica genocide. He spoke at length about his current work as the head of a UNHRC investigatory mission formed to look into possible humanitarian law violations in the recent Gaza conflict.
