Biden and Blinken. Two devout men, one a Catholic the other a Jew. They try to look as if they are trying to stop Israel’s war crimes. However they are not. Just playing for time. Biden could stop this in a stroke of a pen. Just stop sending arms to Israel. Both to hell.
The aim of the 1948 Genocide Convention, drafted in the immediate wake of the Second World War and the Nazi Holocaust, was not simply to punish those who carry out genocides.
It was designed to help identify a genocide in its early stages, and create a mechanism - through the rulings of the International Court of Justice - by which it could be halted.
In other words, the purpose of South Africa’s case against Israel is not to arbitrate what happens once Israel has annihilated the Palestinians of Gaza, as far too many observers appear to imagine. It is to stop Israel from annihilating the people of Gaza before it is too late.
Based on strange logic, Israel’s supporters imply that the genocide charge is unwarranted because the real aim is not to exterminate the Palestinians of Gaza but to induce them to flee.
Israeli leaders have encouraged this assumption. In an interview on Sunday, the national security minister, Itamar Ben-Gvir, noted of Gaza’s population that - after being bombed, made homeless, starved and left vulnerable to disease - "hundreds of thousands will leave now". Duplicitiously, he termed this a “voluntary” mass emigration.
But such an outcome - itself a crime against humanity - entirely depends on Egypt opening its borders to allow Palestinians to flee the killing fields. If Cairo refuses to submit to Israel’s violent blackmail, it will be Israel’s bombs, the famine it inflicted, and the lethal diseases it unleashed that decimate Gaza’s population.
The International Court of Justice must not adopt a wait-and-see approach, pondering whether Israel’s bombing campaign and siege lead to extermination or “only” ethnic cleansing. That would strip international humanitarian law of all relevance.

We are at a moment in history where the 'killing of children' has been an intentional act by Israel, and furthermore, we have had almost live videos of this genocide. Americans will try to wash their hands of blood, but they are just as guilty as those leaders of countries who have remained silent in the face of such injustice.

According to a cable from the Israeli foreign ministry, leaked to the Axios website, Israel hopes that, given the difficulties of making a legal case in defence of its actions, diplomatic and political pressure on the court’s justices will win the day instead.
The Biden administration led the way late last week in dismissing South Africa’s detailed legal brief as “meritless, counterproductive and completely without any basis in fact whatsoever”.
That would sound patently ridiculous to western audiences had they been provided with serious coverage of Gaza. But Israel has been heavily restricting access to the enclave, while killing Palestinian journalists there at an unprecedented rate to stop their reporting.
In addition, western media are willingly - and secretly - submitting to an onerous Israeli censorship regime.

He seems to want to free his soul and conscience from the devilish deeds they had done.
I had seen a movie during my islamic studies, when an israeli soldier wanted to free his soul before dying and spoke about what he had to do back in the years around 1947.
@ahmedyehia___ @DrLoupis Read between the lines. The destruction was caused by Israeli tanks. They rescued them, but were there terrorists amongst the dead bodies. This wasn't a rescue mission.
🇮🇱Israel will face trial for Genocide in the International Criminal Court (ICC), which has scheduled a hearing next Thursday, for South Africa's lawsuit accusing Israel of genocide in Gaza.
🇳🇱 Israel has confirmed that it will appear in the Netherlands next week to defend against the charges.

BREAKING:
⚡ 🇮🇱 The Israeli Army Executed 137 Palestinians in Gaza
The Government Media Office in Gaza:
"We received live testimonies that the Israeli army committed field executions of more than 137 Palestinian civilians in the Gaza and North governorates, where it established detention camps, dug large holes in them, and placed dozens of citizens in them while they were alive, then executed them by firing direct bullets. On them, then buried them with bulldozers."

#READ 'Israel' is circulating pictures like these of men stripped down to their underwear, claiming that they are captured resistance fighters who surrendered.
Here is a list of observations that I hope you take to heart:
1. These are not fighters: several of them have been recognized BY NAME as civilians on social media.
2. A second reason they can't be fighters is that Palestinian freedom fighters DO NOT mass surrender, as they believe in, and strongly prefer martyrdom.
3. IF they were fighters, pictures would be presented of their weapons - none have been shown.
4. What is being sold as a 'military victory' is in fact a WAR CRIME - and worries are rising that these civilian men will be summarily executed.
5. Zionists all over social media are cheering over this new Israeli fabrication - and that is exactly the purpose of this lie. The Israeli army wants to show the Israeli public a victory, so it makes one up. It is clearly working, as cognitive dissonance has had Israelis believing in almost every lie, while the rest of the world has been ridiculing them.
6. These pictures will do nothing to give hope to the Israeli public of retrieving the hostages - as these civilians themselves may he tortured, but actually have no knowledge of anything, including the whereabouts of the hostages.
7. It remains to be seen how Western media will respond to these publicationshow Western media will respond to these publications, but for the Israeli propaganda purposes outside of 'Israel', these pictures practically serve no goal. #BitchMade
there is still hope that more of israli citizens come forward and speak the truth and - british government and all around that government are closing their eyes to what `s happening - why? because they let it happen in the first place in 1948
