The old Bennigan’s on International Drive near Sea World. This was fascinated me for many years. The location is fantastic on the corner of I-Drive and Westwood Blvd. It is at an intersection with easy access and only half a mile from Sea World and yet it has been abandoned for well over a decade.

TIL In English Criminal Law, you cannot kill a person for food, even out of necessity. In 1884, three sailors were stuck out at sea and killed the weakest one for food. After being rescued, they were found guilty of murder. This set a legal precedent which continues today en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nec…

Is Turkey violating international law by waging a war of aggression in Syria? Could Erdogan and/or Turkish military officials face charges in The Hague for their invasion of Syria?

I’ve always wondered how this works. How does the ICC go about pursuing charges against someone for this kind of thing? Would the Turkish law enforcement authorities be compelled to arrest and extradite those charges with crimes?

Iran’s United Nations ambassador accused the United States on Monday of showing no respect for international law

This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 50%. (I'm a bot)


> UNITED NATIONS - Iran's United Nations ambassador accused the United States on Monday of showing no respect for international law by imposing new sanctions on Iran, describing tensions between the pair as "Really dangerous" and not the right atmosphere for talks.

> "How can we start a dialogue with somebody whose primary occupation is to put more sanctions on Iran? The atmosphere of such a dialogue is not ready yet."

> He spoke as the U.N. Security Council met behind closed doors at the request of the United States to discuss Iran.

> Iran said on June 17 that it would breach internationally agreed curbs on its stock of low-enriched uranium in 10 days, but that European nations could still save a nuclear deal that sets those limits.

> Most U.N. sanctions imposed on Iran were lifted in January 2016 when the U.N. nuclear watchdog confirmed that Tehran fulfilled commitments under a 2015 nuclear deal with Britain, France, Germany, China, Russia and the United States.

> Under the nuclear deal there is a process culminating at the U.N. Security Council that can trigger a so-called snapback of all sanctions if Iran violates the agreement.
