India’s political landscape is increasingly being defined by the troubling nexus between crime and politics. A study has highlighted a startling correlation: the election of politicians with criminal records is directly linked to a rise in crime across the country, particularly in states with weaker institutional frameworks. As India's political system continues to grapple with this issue, the societal consequences are becoming clear. <h2>A history of <keyword id="23341122" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="criminal-politicians" source="keywords">criminal politicians</keyword></h2><keyword id="21026899" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Pappu-Yadav" source="keywords">Pappu Yadav</keyword>, a veteran politician from Bihar, serves as a prime example of this disturbing trend. Having represented his constituency for nearly 25 years, Yadav has faced 41 criminal cases, including serious accusations of murder and kidnapping. Despite his conviction in 2008, Yadav was acquitted in 2013, and he continues to hold political influence. His case is not unique; the political scene in states like Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, and Madhya Pradesh is littered with politicians facing multiple criminal charges. Anant Singh, another prominent figure from Bihar, holds a political career shadowed by 38 criminal cases, including murder, kidnapping, and attempts to murder. These individuals represent a broader pattern where politicians accused of serious crimes continue to serve in public office despite their criminal backgrounds. "They are getting elected, and over time the number has only been going up," remarks lead author Nishith Prakash. "In some states, it could be as high as almost 40% of people who are representing the state have some kind of a criminal accusation." <h2>Crime begets crime</h2>The research delves into the ramifications of electing criminally accused politicians. The study found that states with a higher number of such politicians also experienced increased <keyword id="22044507" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="crime-rates" source="keywords">crime rates</keyword>. For example, states like Bihar, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Odisha, and Uttar Pradesh, known for their historically weak institutions, have seen crime rise by 4.3% annually with the election of criminal politicians. The number increases to 5.8% when the politicians are accused of serious crimes like murder and kidnapping. <div type="Article" hostid="261" msid="113692670" title="What will it take for Kangana Ranaut’s &amp;#39;Emergency&amp;#39; to finally hit theatres?" mstype="2" mssubtype="0"></div>Prakash notes that weak rule of law and institutional failure create fertile ground for such politicians to not only rise to power but also exacerbate the deteriorating law-and-order situation. When politicians themselves are involved in criminal activities, they often manipulate legal and administrative systems, further weakening law enforcement and emboldening criminal networks. The reign of <keyword id="20122630" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="lalu-prasad-yadav" source="keywords">Lalu Prasad Yadav</keyword>, president of the Rashtriya Janata Dal political party in Bihar, illustrates the adverse impact criminal politicians can have. Under his leadership, Bihar’s political environment devolved into what is now infamously known as "Jungle Raj," a period marked by rampant kidnappings for ransom, particularly targeting affluent individuals like doctors and schoolchildren. The researchers note that during this time, the kidnapping industry flourished as criminals enjoyed either direct or indirect support from the state. <h2><keyword id="22404298" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="impact-on-women" source="keywords">Impact on women</keyword> and <keyword id="19900794" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="economic-growth" source="keywords">economic growth</keyword></h2>Beyond the immediate rise in general crime rates, the study revealed alarming statistics regarding crimes against women. Electing criminally accused politicians was found to increase crimes against women by 12.6%. In states where such politicians held office, female labour force participation dropped by 10-11%, as women felt unsafe and chose not to engage in work outside their homes. The research also highlighted the economic toll criminal politicians take on their constituencies. Areas represented by politicians accused of serious crimes saw economic growth lag between 2.3% and 6.5% per year compared to other regions. These leaders often misappropriate public funds, divert resources for personal gain, and enable criminal enterprises, all of which stifle local development. <h2>Legal measures taken</h2>India has made strides in identifying and tracking criminally accused politicians. A landmark 2003 ruling by the <keyword id="19895345" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Supreme-Court" source="keywords" meta.keywordsubtype="org" meta.entityname="Supreme Court" meta.hostid="261" meta.entityid="Supreme Court">Supreme Court</keyword> mandated that candidates for political office must disclose their criminal records, making it easier for voters and institutions to scrutinise their backgrounds. However, the law only disqualifies convicted individuals from running for office, allowing accused politicians to continue their political careers while facing serious charges. <div type="Article" hostid="261" msid="113446721" title="It&amp;#39;s not just the rhetoric — apathy and jokes could be fueling a spiral of retaliatory political violence, expert warns" mstype="2" mssubtype="0"></div>The research conducted by Prakash and his team has caught the attention of Indian courts and the Election Commission. While reform is slow, there is growing recognition that the quality of political leadership has a profound impact on societal outcomes, from crime rates to economic performance. "The quality of politicians matters," Prakash notes. "Who you elect has implications on outcomes that we care about. It could be economic growth, it could be crime against women, it could be labour force participation. These are very important outcomes for society and the economy."

Sweeney was convicted of killing two women, Melissa Halstead and Paula Fields, and was sentenced to life in prison.ITV also released a documentary to accompany the series called "Until I Kill You: The Real Story," which features the real Balmer sharing the details of her ordeal. At the beginning, she recalls the day she met Sweeney in 1991 at a London pub called the Hawley Arms in the borough of Camden.She said: "It was a bank holiday Monday, I went to the Hawley Arms pub.

With the West Bengal Assembly bypolls around the corner, a recent analysis by the West Bengal Election Watch and Association for Democratic Reforms (ADR) has shed light on the profiles of candidates in the fray. The study reveals that among the 41 candidates contesting in the upcoming bypolls, seven have serious criminal cases pending, while another seven are crorepatis. <h2>Criminal cases: BJP tops the list</h2>The ADR analysis shows that out of the seven candidates with serious criminal cases, four are from the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), two from the Trinamool Congress (TMC), and one from Congress. These cases range from non-bailable offences to electoral violations and financial fraud, with maximum punishments extending to five years or more. Offences in this category include serious crimes such as murder, kidnapping, and violations of the Prevention of Corruption Act or crimes against women. The bypolls will take place on November 13 in the constituencies of Coochbehar Sitai (SC), Haroa, Naihati, Medinipur, Taldangra, and Madarihat (ST). However, the affidavit for one candidate, independent contestant Pankaj Lohra from Madarihat (ST), could not be reviewed due to missing documents. <h2>Wealthiest candidates</h2>In addition to those with criminal cases, seven candidates declared assets exceeding Rs 1 crore. Congress leads in this regard, with three crorepati candidates, followed by the BJP with two, and the TMC and CPIM(L) with one each. According to the affidavits, the wealthiest candidate is TMC's <keyword id="23849799" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="sanat-dey" source="keywords">Sanat Dey</keyword> from Naihati, who has assets worth Rs 4.9 crore, including Rs 1.8 crore in immovable property. Following him is BJP's Ananya Roy Chakraborty, who is contesting from Taldangra, with assets totalling nearly Rs 3 crore. TMC’s Shyamal Kumar Ghosh, running for the Medinipur seat, declared assets of approximately Rs 1.69 crore. On average, the candidates’ assets are valued at around Rs 58.14 lakh. In contrast to the wealthiest candidates, Kashikanta Barman from the Kamatapur Peoples Party (United), contesting from Coochbehar Sitai (SC), has declared the lowest assets, amounting to just Rs 5,000. This wide range of wealth highlights the diverse financial backgrounds of candidates in the bypolls. (With inputs from agencies)

In her letter, dated August 30, Banerjee emphasised the gravity of the situation and urged for prompt central intervention, highlighting the inadequacy of the reply received from the Union Minister of <keyword id="20086338" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Women-and-Child-Development" source="keywords">Women and Child Development</keyword>. The letter reads, "No reply was received from your end on such a sensitive issue. However, a reply has been received from the Minister of Women and Child Development, Government of India (vide their No. 1/RESC/HMWCD/2024 dated 25th August 2024), which barely addresses the gravity of the issue raised in my letter. I am of the view that the seriousness of the subject and its relevance to society have not been adequately appreciated in this generic reply." The letter was posted on her social media handle, X. In response to Union Minister Annapurna Devi's allegations regarding the state government's failure to implement essential safety measures for women and children, including Fast Track Special Courts (FTSCs), CM Mamata stated that the state government has approved 10 exclusive POCSO FTSCs, while 88 FTSCs and 62 POCSO-designated Courts are functioning with complete state funding. The letter mentioned, "Moreover, I would also refer to some of the initiatives in this area that our State has already undertaken, which appear to have been overlooked in the reply. Regarding Fast Track Special Courts (FTSCs), 10 exclusive POCSO Courts have been approved by the State Government. In addition to this, 88 FTSCs and 62 POCSO-designated Courts are functioning throughout the State with complete State funding. Monitoring and disposal of cases are entirely in the hands of the Courts." Highlighting the issue of appointing Presiding Officers in FTSCs, she further stated that this process requires examination and action from the Government of India, which, according to her, needs PM Modi's intervention. "As per Central Government guidelines, only retired Judicial Officers can be posted as Presiding Officers in FTSCs, but the Hon'ble High Court has observed that, in view of the severity of the cases, permanent Judicial Officers need to be appointed. This requires examination at the level of the Government of India and appropriate action thereafter, for which your intervention would be necessary. Moreover, Helpline Nos. 112 and 1098 are functioning satisfactorily in the State. Additionally, Dial 100 is also extensively used in emergency situations," the letter added. Urging for central <keyword id="20082569" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="legislation" source="keywords">legislation</keyword> and exemplary punishment for heinous crimes, the West Bengal CM expressed hope for very considered attention from PM Modi. Mamata Banerjee mentioned in her letter, "I would reiterate and earnestly request that a stringent Central legislation and exemplary punishment for heinous crimes of rape/rape and murder be considered, with a mandatory provision for the disposal of cases within a specific timeframe by the trial authorities. I hope this matter would receive very considered attention at your kind end in the interest of our society at large." On August 26, Union Women and Child Development Minister Annapurna Devi criticised the West Bengal government for its failure to implement essential safety measures for women and children in the state. In a letter written to West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee, the Union Minister stated that 123 Fast Track Special Courts (FTSCs) were allocated to the state, but none of them are functional yet. Earlier, on August 22, West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee wrote a letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi urging the central government to bring in central legislation and set up fast-track courts for "sensitive" issues to ensure a speedy trial. Mamata, in the letter, mentioned that such "sensitive" issues need to be addressed comprehensively through stringent central legislation prescribing exemplary punishment against the perpetrators of such heinous crimes. The Bengal Chief Minister suggested the setting up of "fast-track special courts" to deal with such cases, which require a speedy trial. This development comes after the trainee doctor was found dead in the seminar hall of RG Kar Medical College and Hospital in Kolkata on August 9.

He was deemed unfit to stand trial in 1958 because he was diagnosed with schizophrenia. 10 years later, he was re-assessed, stood trial, and was found guilty of Worden's death.However, he was also judged to be legally insane and was sent to a psychiatric hospital.The disturbing nature of Gein's crimes has inspired a number of movies and TV shows.Director Alfred Hitchcock adapted Robert Bloch's book "Psycho," which was inspired by Gein, into the iconic horror movie of the same name.Gein's penchant for making household items out of body parts, including a belt made of nipples, meanwhile inspired the slasher movie "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre."It's also not the first time that Murphy has used Gein's crimes in his work, as he introduced the grisly murderer called Bloodyface with similarly brutal tendencies in <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/american-horror-story-ranked-worst-to-best">"American Horror Story" season two</a>.

'Monster' season 3 is about the serial killer who inspired 'Psycho' and 'The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.' Here's what we know about Ryan Murphy's next true crime drama. 

Asserting that a woman or a girl is killed every 11 minutes by an intimate partner or a family member, UN chief <keyword id="300649" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="antonio-guterres" source="Orion">Antonio Guterres</keyword> has said that violence against them is the most pervasive "human rights violation" in the world and called on governments to implement national action plans that tackle this scourge. Secretary General Guterres made these remarks ahead of the International Day for the 'Elimination of Violence against Women' which is observed on November 25. "Violence against women and girls is the most pervasive human rights violation in the world. Every 11 minutes, a woman or a girl is killed by an intimate partner or family member - and we know that other stresses, from the COVID-19 pandemic to economic turmoil, inevitably lead to even more physical and verbal abuse," Guterres said. Guterres' remarks come in the backdrop of the recent <keyword id="15514202" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="shraddha-walker" source="Orion">Shraddha Walker</keyword> murder case that has shocked India with its brutal details. He said women and girls also face rampant online violence, from misogynistic hate speech to sexual harassment, image abuse and grooming by predators. "This discrimination, violence and abuse targeting half of humanity come at a steep cost. It limits women's and girls' participation in all walks of life, denies their basic rights and freedoms, and blocks the equal economic recovery and sustainable growth our world needs," he said. The UN chief gave a clarion call to all to "consign violence against women and girls to the history books," saying now is the time for transformative action that ends violence against women and girls. He said this means governments designing, funding and implementing national action plans to tackle this scourge, involving grass-roots and civil society groups at every stage of decision-making and ensuring that laws are implemented and respected, so survivors see their rights to justice and support upheld. Calling on governments to increase funding by 50 per cent to women's rights organisations and movements by 2026, Guterres urged all to take a "stand and raise our voices in support of women's rights" and proudly declare that "we are all feminists." He called for supporting public campaigns that challenge patriarchal norms and promote different forms of masculinities that reject misogyny and violence. Noting that this year's theme on an international day is 'UNITE: Activism to End Violence Against Women and Girls', Guterres said it means standing with activists around the world who are calling for change and supporting survivors of violence. Walker's live-in partner Aaftab Amin Poonawala allegedly strangled her and sawed her body into 35 pieces, which he kept in a fridge for almost three weeks at his home in south Delhi's <keyword id="195857" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="mehrauli" source="Orion">Mehrauli</keyword> area.

Companies take <keyword id="1672191" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="cyber-insurance" source="Orion">cyber insurance</keyword> to protect themselves from damages due to cyber frauds. Cyber security insurance is also available for individuals. HDFC ERGO, offers a cyber sachet insurance policy, tailored for individuals, including students, women, entrepreneurs, and working professionals. The policy covers a range of cyber threats such as theft of funds, identity theft, social media liability, malware attacks, phishing, and third-party data breaches along with coverage for counselling services to support individuals who experience emotional setbacks due to cyber incidents. Also one can extend the coverage to cover their smart home devices affected by malware attacks. Similarly Bajaj Allianz provides an Individual Cyber Safe Insurance Policy. Cyber insurance acts as a protective measure against potential losses incurred online, offering assurance and coverage in case of adverse incidents. This insurance coverage grants peace of mind, allowing individuals to engage in online activities without constant concern over financial ramifications caused by cyber threats. Such plans can have a sum insured of ₹10,000 to ₹5 crore. Let us take a look at what all is covered under cyber insurance. Financial loss: The coverage extends to financial losses resulting from online frauds, encompassing unauthorised access, phishing, and spoofing incidents affecting bank accounts, credit/debit cards, and digital wallets. “Any sort of financial loss due to any <keyword id="6358845" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="cyber-fraud" source="Orion">cyber fraud</keyword> is covered up to the sum assured in the policy. For example if someone clicks on a phishing link and then one's account is hacked and one loses money from their bank account the policy will cover it,” says TA Ramalingam, chief technical officer, Bajaj Allianz General Insurance . Identity theft: Coverage includes indemnification for financial losses, credit monitoring expenses, legal fees for prosecution resulting from the unauthorised use of personal information by a third party on the internet. Additionally, it encompasses psychological consultation expenses for the affected individual. Data restoration: Expenses incurred in the retrieval or restoration of lost or corrupted data resulting from malware attacks is covered. “Cost incurred in restoring lost or corrupted data or replacing hardware due to malware attack,” says Parthanil Ghosh, President, Retail Business HDFC ERGO General Insurance. Hardware replacement: Expenses associated with replacing your personal device or its components that have been impacted or damaged due to a malware attack are covered. Cyber bullying: Coverage includes legal expenses, expenses related to removing objectionable content posted by cyber-bullies, and psychological consultation costs for the affected individual. Online shopping: Financial losses may be incurred due to online shopping on fraudulent websites. “Online shopping fraud where an item is not received even after making a full payment is covered,” says Ghosh. What is not covered Any losses resulting out of dishonest or improper conduct is not covered. Any losses arising out of racist, pornographic or other immoral services or restricted websites are also not covered. Some of the other exclusions include coverage for investment activities like selling shares and losses in cryptocurrency. It is the onus of the policyholder to follow basic safety procedures. “One needs to behave as if one is not insured. So if someone makes basic mistakes like sharing one’s PIN or OTP or writing the PIN at the back of an ATM card, the insurance company won't cover any damages,” says Ramalingam. If you are a heavy mobile phone or Internet user, having cyber insurance can give you a safety net. However, remember, it pays to stay vigilant.

<ul class="summary-list"><li>"Baby Reindeer" gripped audiences with the true story of a woman stalking an aspiring comedian. </li><li>Some viewers tried to identify the real-life stalker by hunting for her on social media.</li></ul>Netflix's "<a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/baby-reindeer-ending-explained-writer-stalked-real-life-true-martha-2024-4">Baby Reindeer</a>" gripped audiences with the story of Donny Dunn, an aspiring comedian who is stalked by a woman after he shows her a moment of kindness in the pub where he works.The series, which is based on the real-life experiences of its writer and lead actor, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/baby-reindeer-stalker-real-martha-scott-fiona-harvey-piers-morgan-2024-5">Richard Gadd</a>, was met with rave reviews for its honest depiction of stalking and abuse, earning a 98% score on <a target="_blank" href="https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/baby_reindeer">Rotten Tomatoes</a>.It's ironic, then, that viewers responded to a show about the psychological trauma of stalking by becoming armchair detectives as they tried to find both his real-life stalker and abuser, whose identities the show's makers said they tried to conceal.According to <a target="_blank" href="https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=today%201-m&amp;geo=US&amp;q=baby%20reindeer&amp;hl=en">Google Trends</a>, among the top searches related to "Baby Reindeer" since the show was released in April were "Baby Reindeer real Martha" and the name of the woman fans think the stalker character is based on, as well as the identity of the man who abused Gadd.The fervor with which viewers were trying to hunt the pair down led a woman, who claimed to be the real Martha Scott, to consider<a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/baby-reindeer-real-stalker-considering-legal-action-against-richard-gadd-2024-4"> legal action against Netflix and Gadd</a>. The unnamed woman told the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-13355135/truth-comedian-female-stalker-gripped-world-Netflix-Baby-Reindeer-fame-fortune.html">Daily Mail</a> last month that she has received "death threats and abuse from Richard Gadd supporters."She said: "I'm the victim. He's written a bloody show about me."Since then, broadcaster Piers Morgan has interviewed a woman named Fiona Harvey — who appears to be the same person the Daily Mail spoke to — promising to "set the record straight." The interview will air on Thursday.TikTok sleuths also harassed <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/baby-reindeer-real-people-martha-darrien-stop-speculating-2024-4">Sean Foley</a>, a British writer, comedian, and actor whom Gadd had worked with in the past, accusing him of being the star's abuser. Foley was forced to go to the police, and Gadd defended him, asking people not to speculate about the real identities of the people in the show. This isn't the first time the public has reacted to true crime series and even ongoing police investigations in this way.In January 2023, for example, social media was rife with speculation after British woman Nicola Bulley went missing in suspicious circumstances, with some even trespassing on private property as they tried to investigate her disappearance.<a target="_blank" href="https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/nicola-bulleys-disappearance-amateur-tiktok-31912951">The Mirror</a> reported Lancashire's Police and Crime Commissioner Andrew Snowden said the force "lost control of the narrative" because of conspiracy theorists. The authorities even issued dispersal notices to members of the public trying to stage their own investigations in February 2023.<h2 id="4473a89b-156b-4ea5-b23e-f2dbeb55297e">True crime blurs the line between real life and fiction</h2><div type="image" title="Richard Gadd as Donny Dunn in &quot;Baby Reindeer.&quot;" height="1592" width="2123" msid="109988681" hostid="261"></div>Dr. Ruth Tully, a UK-based forensic psychologist who specializes in assessing and treating sexual and violent offenders, told Business Insider that true crime blurs the line between entertainment and real life, with audiences consuming the content in the same way they'd watch a soap opera or a drama.That's further complicated by some true crime audiences thinking they are helping to bring about justice by becoming armchair detectives.Tully said: "It can be extremely harmful, and I think it's easy to forget that because we are understandably engaged and wrapped up in what is an interesting storyline, an interesting case, and I think it's driven from a good place. People don't like injustice, and it's good to act on injustice in many circumstances."Gorging on true crime can also be a way for some audiences, particularly women, to learn how to stay safe, according to Tulley."The theory is that through understanding perpetrator's behaviors and also victim behaviors, there's a principle that we might be better able to keep ourselves safe because we feel that we understand criminal behavior better. So that's one principle," she said.In a piece published by <a target="_blank" href="https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2023/jul/05/women-love-true-crime-podcasts-theory-serial-online-dating">The Guardian</a>, titled "Why do women love true crime so much?" journalist Nancy Jo Sales suggested: "Women who date in the digital age have become online detectives to keep true crimes from happening to them."For those with less honorable motives, Tully said that the separation between real life and social media makes the transition to armchair detective and harasser easier, especially when people can easily make fake accounts."What we do tend to find is with social media, people do feel like there's an element of anonymity because they might not have the true profile up, for example. So they feel that there'll be no consequences, and this might not be an active consideration at the time," she said."This isn't in-the-moment thinking. They don't necessarily think these things through like, 'Oh wow, they're not going to catch me' because it feels safer to them," she added.According to a 2023 study published in the <a target="_blank" href="https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10610-023-09542-0">European Journal of Criminal Policy and Research</a> on anonymous online harassment faced by influencers, harassers find strength in numbers. Numerous people harassing an individual "can lead to a diffusion of responsibility and moral disengagement among the harassers," its authors wrote.<h2 id="dc4f1ae4-1963-41ee-a09c-7b79bacd6792">Netflix says it's difficult to control what viewers do</h2><div type="image" title="Jessica Gunning as Martha Scott in &quot;Baby Reindeer.&quot;" height="2000" width="2667" msid="109988682" hostid="261"></div>This raises the question of whether streaming services and TV networks are doing enough to protect those involved in true crime content. How they would do this remains unclear.In the case of "Baby Reindeer," Gadd said the team changed the characters enough to protect their real-life counterparts, but viewers were still able to find social media posts from a woman who fitted Martha's description.It's unclear what steps Netflix took to protect the identity of those depicted in the show, including whether they contacted the stalker.At a <a target="_blank" href="https://parliamentlive.tv/event/index/6fba870f-84fa-4bc5-a25c-7373979e4cca">UK parliamentary hearing</a> on Wednesday about British film and TV, Netflix policy chief Benjamin King said that the streamer took "every reasonable precaution" to disguise the identities of the real people involved.However, he did not take responsibility for the harassment that took place after subscribers watched the show."Ultimately, it's obviously very difficult to control what viewers do, particularly in a world where everything is amplified by social media," King said.Netflix previously came under fire for depicting the family of Errol Lindsay, one of Jeffrey Dahmer's victims, in the 2023 series "Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story." Lindsay's sister, Rita Isbell, criticized Netflix <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/rita-isbell-sister-jeffrey-dahmer-victim-talks-about-netflix-show-2022-9">in an essay for Business Insider</a> for not consulting with her or her family."I was never contacted about the show. I feel like Netflix should've asked if we mind or how we felt about making it. They didn't ask me anything. They just did it," she wrote at the time.But regardless of how Netflix handles working with the real people involved in its true crime content, the responsibility to not harass people online over lies with the audience themselves, Tully said."It's a common sense decision that to track someone down and hound them might be harmful," she said.

'Baby Reindeer' viewers watched a stalking drama &mdash; then hunted down 'the real Martha Scott.' A psychologist explains why true crime turns us into armchair detectives.  

<ul class="summary-list"><li>Israel's defense minister ordered a siege of Gaza with "no electricity, no food, and no fuel."</li><li>Intentionally starving a civilian population is a war crime, human rights lawyers say.</li></ul>There is no special carve-out in international law that allows the victims of war crimes to commit war crimes in return. Nevertheless, there are signs that the logic of retribution may be prevailing within Israel's military leadership.On Monday, following a horrific series of atrocities committed by Hamas, including the mass killing and kidnapping of Israeli women and children, Israel's minister of defense ordered that the border with Gaza be closed and no food be allowed to enter. The Israeli government also cut off Gaza's electricity and <a href="https://twitter.com/Israel_katz/status/1711332854070640935" target="_blank" rel="noopener">water supply</a>. On Tuesday, a spokesperson for the Israeli Defense Forces <a href="https://www.haaretz.co.il/news/politics/2023-10-10/ty-article-live/0000018b-1645-d465-abbb-16f71d060000#1720386730" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reportedly said</a> that the waves of Israeli airstrikes on Gaza would seek to emphasize "damage, not accuracy."Starving civilians is a war crime. "There is no context in which such a policy can be legal," Michael Sfard, an Israeli human rights lawyer, <a href="https://twitter.com/sfardm/status/1711417277503905927" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wrote on X</a>. Bombing a military objective without taking into account the potential loss of civilian life is also war crime. Tom Dannenbaum, a professor of international law at Tufts, <a href="https://twitter.com/tomdannenbaum/status/1711328176616419710" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wrote on X that</a> Gallant's orders violated prohibitions against starvation and possibly the crimes of "extermination," and <a href="https://twitter.com/tomdannenbaum/status/1711330192013095207" target="_blank" rel="noopener">genocide</a> as well. "Food, water, and essentials for survival must be allowed in," Dannenbaum wrote.Not only does the Israeli government's emerging scorched-earth doctrine violate international law, it also violates Israeli Defense Forces' own <a href="https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/ruach-tzahal-idf-code-of-ethics" target="_blank" rel="noopener">code of conduct</a>, known as ruach tzahal. The code obliges Israeli soldiers to "above all, preserve human life" and "limit his use of force so as to prevent unnecessary harm to human life and limb, dignity, and property."But in Gallant's view, the targets are less than human. "We are fighting human animals and we are acting accordingly," he said. The following day, Gallant said that he was removing "all restraints" from Israel's response. Gallant's rhetoric was echoed by Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu himself, who referred to the adversary as "savages," a word also used by US Senator Marco Rubio, who said "they have to be eradicated." Rubio's <a href="https://www.rubio.senate.gov/icymi-rubio-joins-cnns-the-lead-with-jake-tapper/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">official website</a> clarified that by "they," he meant Hamas, not the whole of Gaza. But the scope of all three statements is less than clear in context.<h2>Netanyahu's scorched-earth doctrine</h2>Israel argues that the root-and-branch destruction of Hamas is a reasonable response to the October 7 attacks. Most observers acknowledge that Hamas, as an organization, is a legitimate military target and that its continued existence now poses an obvious ongoing threat to Israel's security.But the emerging doctrine of Netanyahu's government appears to go much further than the objective of eliminating Hamas. While Israel's campaign is still in its early days, cutting off food and water suggests it could become a scorched-earth campaign of retribution against two million people who have been suffering for years under a combination of Israel's blockade and Hamas' rule. Make no mistake — the objective of such a scorched-earth campaign would have little to do with Israel's security. Instead, a campaign of retribution against civilians — of war crimes — would have a political objective: satisfy hardliners and erase the memory of the intelligence failure that allowed Hamas to carry out the attacks in the first place. <div type="image" title="A man walks with mattresses through destruction in the Gaza Strip's Jabalia refugee camp on October 11, 2023, following overnight Israeli airstrikes." height="1333" width="1778" msid="104352131" hostid="261" sizebytes="437956"></div>Of course, there is indeed a carve-out for such acts in international law — an unwritten one. War crimes are seldom punished if they are endorsed by a superpower. So far, the US and Europe have done little in public to push back against the Netanyahu's stated policy of vengeance. On Tuesday, President Joe Biden said he told Netanyahu that democracies "are stronger when we act according to the rule of law. Terrorists purposely target civilians, and kill them. We uphold the rule of law. It matters. There's a difference." But so far, Gallant's public order to begin starving two million people, a clear violation of international law, has gone unmentioned. <h2>Donald Trump endorsed and pardoned war crimes</h2>For Americans, much of this — the horror, the missed warnings, the near-instant promises of retribution — carries echoes of 9/11. So do the 22 dead Americans among more than 1,000 who perished from the Hamas attacks. What's different is the openness with which Netanyahu's government is declaring their intent to set international law aside. In the past, such extreme actions usually happened under a shroud of deniability. Violent US interventions in Southeast Asia and Latin America that killed hundreds of thousands of civilians were conducted in secret, not as a matter of official policy. Even during the bloody post-9/11 period, Western governments refrained from announcing that they intended to commit war crimes. The CIA had its lawyers arguing that indefinite detention could be reconciled with due process, and that waterboarding and beatings were not torture. The US military set mathematical limits on civilian casualties — the more collateral damage, the higher the level of approval required within the chain of command. This attempt to impose the legal principles of proportionality and necessity on drone strikes <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2021/12/18/us/airstrikes-pentagon-records-civilian-deaths.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">was deeply flawed</a>, but an attempt was made. Donald Trump was different. When it came to terrorists, he said during his first campaign, "you have to take out their families," an explicit endorsement of war crimes. As president, Trump took some small steps towards institutionalizing his stated preference for a higher volume of killing with less discriminate standards. He dropped the largest non-nuclear bomb in the US arsenal on Afghanistan and mused about using nuclear weapons. He loosened the rules governing drone strikes. But it was his rhetoric most of all that changed how his base talked about war. He made little distinction between political opponents, immigrants, and armed enemies on the battlefield. He pardoned Americans convicted of intentionally killing unarmed civilians. In his view, respect for the lives of civilians in a conflict zone was not a sign of strength, but weakness. The shamelessness with which Trump called for the intentional killing of civilians was something new. But it took Vladimir Putin's 2022 invasion of Ukraine to fully put Trump's stated doctrine into practice — a modern military, in uniform, openly committing war crimes at scale. In Bucha and elsewhere, there is <a href="https://www.ohchr.org/en/press-releases/2022/10/un-commission-concludes-war-crimes-have-been-committed-ukraine-expresses" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ample evidence</a> of Russian soldiers going house to house to murder civilians, and forcefully deporting hundreds of thousands of children. A number of legal experts have argued that Russia's actions meet the legal definition of genocide, a term that President Joe Biden has also used to describe Russia's aggression. Prosecutors at the International Criminal Court at the Hague issued an arrest warrant for Vladimir Putin. They were assisted by the US Justice Department, despite the US not recognizing the ICC's jurisdiction.Israel's military has found itself accused of widespread crimes against Palestinians in the past. Its bombardment and ground invasion of Gaza in 2014, an overwhelming response to kidnappings and rocket fire, has led the ICC to open an ongoing <a href="https://www.icc-cpi.int/news/statement-icc-prosecutor-fatou-bensouda-respecting-investigation-situation-palestine" target="_blank" rel="noopener">war crimes probe</a>.Gallant's order would have likely provoked more outcry had Israel's policy towards Gaza not resembled a siege already. More than 90 percent of <a href="https://reliefweb.int/report/occupied-palestinian-territory/water-gaza-scarce-polluted-and-mostly-unfit-use" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Gaza's aquifer</a> is contaminated; Gazans spend as much as a third of their income on potable drinking water. Electricity <a href="https://www.unrwa.org/where-we-work/gaza-strip" target="_blank" rel="noopener">blacks out</a> for ten or eleven hours each day. Hamas, the governing authority responsible for the terrorist attacks, maintains control over its own territory through less visible forms of terror — abductions, torture, and murders of Palestinians in Gaza who dissent from their rule. And these were the conditions of life in Gaza prior to the five-day-old war. Already, according to the U.N., Israeli attacks have displaced 130,000 Gazan civilians and left 400,000 without running water. "The laws of war weren't designed only for situations in which our blood is cool," Sfard, the Israeli human rights lawyer, <a href="https://www.haaretz.com/opinion/2023-10-11/ty-article-opinion/.premium/israelis-must-maintain-their-humanity-even-when-their-blood-boils/0000018b-1e18-d465-abbb-1ebe62c80000" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wrote today</a>. "It's not easy for Israelis to think about Gazans' rights in a week when Hamas committed crimes that are still impossible to digest and our whole society is mourning and crying. But Gaza's catastrophe won't wait for the end of our seven-day shivah."
