Original Note:
Mens rea is a general term denoting any criminal intent, NOT the specific intent required to commit genocide. The ICJ case presented by South Africa does not contain the word "mens rea" and contains the term "dolus specialis" four times. https://www.un.org/en/genocideprevention/genocide.shtml https://www.icj-cij.org/sites/default/files/case-related/192/192-20231228-app-01-00-en.pdf
