He's denounced it, but has anyone asked NSC spokesman John Kirby if he actually read South Africa's 83 pp. application to the #ICJ re the possible genocide being conducted by Israel in #Gaza? I suspect he hasn't: he's busy, and doing so would make it harder for him to do his job.
Many hundreds of thousands of innocent men, women, and children in Gaza today are on the brink. This is a dire humanitarian crisis and it's getting worse by the minute.
Congress must take action.
The Biden Administration must take action.
The world must take action.
The disaster in Gaza cannot continue. The world must act to save innocent lives. But just as a humanitarian response is critical, it is equally important to lay out a path to a two-state solution and a democratic Palestine. Israel cannot bomb its way to a long-term solution.
Attention is obviously now focused on the crisis in Gaza, but West Bank violence has also increased. The UN reports 170 settler attacks in the West Bank, and 121 Palestinians have been killed since October 7. Israel must end this violence.
The two main approaches: #China demanded to reduce tension. The formation of two countries is the only solution left. #USA, Hamas is condemned. We are with #Israel under any circumstances. Which one brings a clearer vision to humanity?! #Gaza
The only way for #Ukraine to rescue from the saw position:
1.Grant autonomy to several eastern provinces
2.Adopt a neutral strategy such as #Sweden
The UN Security Council can unanimously guarantee its.
So Russia will return to its borders [while paying part of the compensation]
I am reminded of Sun Tzu's dictum that one should "build a golden bridge for your enemy to retreat across." Unity, resolution, and continued pressure on Russia are necessary, but saving #Ukraine also requires making it easier for Moscow to reverse course.
@IAPonomarenko This crisis is as a complicated clash of interests between nuclear-armed states not as a morality play between good and evil. So it is better for the West to give the right score in time and not to make a gesture of absolute superiority. #Ukraine
