South Africa’s 84-page filing says Israel’s actions “are genocidal in character because they are intended to bring about the destruction of a substantial part” of the Palestinians in Gaza.
It asks the ICJ, also known as the world court, for a series of legally binding rulings. It wants the court to declare that Israel “has breached and continues to breach its obligations under the Genocide Convention,” and to order Israel to cease hostilities in Gaza that could amount to breaches of the convention, to offer reparations, and to provide for reconstruction of what it’s destroyed in Gaza.
It says that no matter how horrible an act of war it cannot serve as justification for genocide. Can you detail how that’s cringe?
Don’t reply to rivermonster. Argues in bad faith and licks IDF boots super hard. Really don’t bother. Every Israel thread is filled with his apologism.
I think it’s important that people shoot him down using actual facts and reason, then otherwise ignore him. If it keeps just one ambivalent person from believing his lies, it’s worth it. Propagandists like him rely on a lack of pushback to spread their lies.
True. It’s important to respond not to him but to the people reading his propaganda. Also to educate them on how to refute other IDF propaganda.
It’s pretty insane how many full on IDF trolls there are which are clearly not interested in changing their minds. Even Trump didn’t have this many trolls to defend him outside of conserve echo chambers.
Oh, you know, I be hatin’ I be callin’ cringe

Never thought I’d ever read someone call South Africa a Hamas ally.
Damn we really need to do something about this South African sharia regime. Gosh darn 1.5% Muslim population having country speaking out against my god ordained right to kill women and children.

Amazing, you just think genocide is justifiable. That’s your cringe.

Can you detail the difference from those historical examples?
No. He cannot.
What’s your basis for repeatedly calling SA allies/friends of Hamas?
None other than Bibi’s hand up his ass.
Ahhh! So, by your justification, if a group of people were to universally support a terrorist group (which the Palestinians don’t), then that’s justification to kill every single man, woman, and child in that group. It’s justification to ask non-combatants to relocate to so-called "safe"areas, then to bomb those safe areas. By your criteria, every United States citizen is also deserving of death.
All your argument really shows is that you think genocide is acceptable under certain conditions (and that you’re a terrible person).
What is the alt left?

Your description is an imaginary person. And your defense is to lash out. I bet you’re stable and people like you.
Hey look, a straw man!
I would like to point out that being anti-Israel does not make one anti-Jewish. You can be Israeli and not a Jew and the other way around. That’s like saying Russia is anti-Christian because they don’t like Americans and the majority of Americans are Christian. But that doesn’t make any sense because Christianity is the most widely professed religion in Russia. No-one here is anti-Jewish, just anti-Israel. No need to make stuff up
