🚨Iraqi foreign minister Fuad Hussein told me in Davos that Princeton researcher Elizabeth Tsurkov who has been held hostage by an Iraqi militia is alive and stressed Prime Minister Sudani is working for her release

🚨שר החוץ של עיראק פואד חוסיין אמר לי בדאבוס שהחוקרת הישראלית אליזבת צורקוב שנחטפה על ידי מיליציה עיראקית לפני כשנתיים עודנה בחיים והדגיש כי ראש הממשלה מוחמד אל-סודאני פועל כדי להביא לשחרורה

[Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin]

After all these years, the victims of 9/11 and their families deserve justice and closure. The Bush Administration’s disastrous decision to torture detainees and set up untested military commissions made a fair trial impossible.

#Israel/#Gaza — A reminder that threats against the ICC promote a culture of impunity. States should cooperate with and assist, not retaliate against, this independent international court. https://t.co/sEIq7TZoBh

Elizabeth Tsurkov was kidnapped in 2023 in Iraq, reportedly held by Kataib Hezbollah. Her sister says Iraq’s PM holds the key to her release. “The govt is…committed to disclose the fate of that hostage” he tells me. “We will hold accountable anyone who engages in such abduction”

[Allegra Harpootlian @ally_harp]

The CIA has a long and dangerous history of trying to avoid accountability for their actions by refusing to answer absurdly obvious questions.

We were in court yesterday because they're doing it again. ⬇️

@aayoub The phrase is in the charter of Likud, the neofascist party that Netanyahu heads. So presumably it is not antisemitic.

This whole discourse from the A D L and AIPAC is frankly unhinged and a way for right-wing zealots to distract from the ongoing genocide of Palestinians.

NEW: Is the US government hiding Section 702 surveillance in court cases?

In @just_security today, we discuss DOJ's disappearing Section 702 notices and how this undermines both due process and judicial review of controversial spying programs:

Today in @thehill, I explain why reforms to FISA Section 702 to protect Americans' privacy rights won't prevent the law from being used to combat international fentanyl trafficking in the ways the Biden administration has described. 1/10
