Over on Opinio Juris, an international law blog which I read religiously, I caught the news today of a Dutch court of appeals backing an earlier ruling which has granted immunity to the United Nations over the Srebrenica massacre, meaning that the organization cannot be sued for its failure to protect Bosnian citizens. 

Because we are presently advocating in a trial before an internal United Nations tribunal, I have asked my esteemed colleague Geert Jan Alexander Knoops to provide some commentary.  These initial comments are clearly tentative, but we will revisit this subject again in early May.
