Nobody voted against the UN Security Resolution, I take it yours would have been the only one............... UN Security Council demands Houthis stop Red Sea attacks Jan 10 (Reuters) - The U.N. Security Council on Wednesday demanded Yemen's Houthis immediately end attacks on ships in the Red Sea and cautioned against escalating tensions while implicitly endorsing a U.S.-led task force that has been defending vessels. Eleven members voted for the measure demanding the Houthis "immediately cease all attacks, which impede global commerce and navigational rights and freedoms as well as regional peace." https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/un-security-council-demands-houthis-stop-red-sea-attacks-2024-01-10/

Oh right, they haven't investigated but they would like to. Got it, thanks, however that's enough for your the theoretical basis for charging Israel with war crimes.

yea ok.....lol How does that work out with the quote you posted and which is the part I highlighted and responded to? Starvation as a war crime has never been prosecuted, she says, but her organization has produced a report arguing it is happening in South Sudan and she wants her group to be allowed to conduct an independent investigation in Gaza."

What charge, has their been an investigation completed?

I wish the UN faced up to its own failures in this, or are they proud of their staffs work. Not surprising that they grew up to become terrorists. Editorial: Reform UNRWA, a renegade agency committed to hate What if a secretive United Nations organization existed that employed murderers and terrorists; that hired trained killers as school principals; that brainwashed children in Islamic fundamentalism; that ran a propaganda machine, using social media to encourage students to kill people just because they were part of a different religion? Such an organization exists. As detailed in this week’s Opinion page by Jerusalem journalist David Bedein, the agency is called the United Nations Relief and Works Agency, also known as UNRWA. Over the years, it has raised billions of dollars from Western countries, with the United States serving as the lead donor and patron. https://jewishjournal.org/2017/05/04/editorial-reform-unrwa-a-renegade-agency-committed-to-hate/

mmm Good article my take is that provisional measures of some sort could well be issued by the court based on this. “It’s a low evidentiary threshold; you just have to show prima facie that what you’re saying is plausible,” explained Lieblich. The main event case which would be years away where it is more evidence based has no bearing on this first 2 days hearing. The Israeli ministers making those inflammatory remarks did not help at all. Its going to be a pollical witch hunt against Israel but should not affect the ongoing dismantling of Hamas.

"Haaretz's false reporting that the prime minister said the deportation of Gaza residents is under consideration provided tailwind for South Africa’s baseless accusation" of genocide at the International Court of Justice. Haaretz Falsely Claimed Netanyahu Was Open to Deporting Gaza Residents; He’s Not CAMERA’s Israel office prompted the correction of a report in Haaretz‘s English edition, which falsely claimed that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that the deportation of Gaza residents is under consideration. But as Barak Ravid of Axios, and a former Haaretz journalist, rightly pointed out, Netanyahu did not say the deportation of Gaza residents is under consideration. Ravid correctly tweeted: That’s not what he said in the recording. He was talking about a deal of deporting [Hamas leader Yahya] Sinwar from Gaza in return for the release of the hostages as a way to end the war. https://www.algemeiner.com/2024/01/10/haaretz-falsely-claimed-netanyahu-was-open-to-deporting-gaza-residents-hes-not/

The Israeli army took journalists to two towns in Gaza, highlighting the proximity of what it said was Hamas’s military facilities — including a rocket storehouse and a weapons plant — and nearby civilian infrastructure. The soldiers leading the tour said that the damage had predominantly been the fault of Hamas, both because the Oct. 7 raid forced Israel’s hand and because the group’s fighters had embedded in residential areas, using civilians as human shields. The Israeli army brought the journalists to Bureij and the neighboring town of Maghazi to try to emphasize that point. They highlighted the proximity of Hamas’s military facilities — including a rocket storehouse and a building that soldiers said was a weapons plant — and the nearby civilian infrastructure. Maj. Gen. Itai Veruv, a commander at the front, pointed out residential apartment blocks from which, he said, Hamas fighters had fired on the Israeli army and soldiers were forced to fire back at the buildings. https://archive.ph/cBDmO https://www.nytimes.com/2024/01/09/world/middleeast/israel-military-gaza-ruins.html

Not much fighting needed in this luxury house with pool, the cowards had left. This is how Hamas leaders live in Gaza - palaces with pools. This is the vacation home of Marwan Issa, deputy commander of the terror group’s military wing. Hamas has made its leaders rich while robbing the Palestinian people of an economic future.

Update on this, they were on a double whammy, not only working for Al Jazeera but also now confirmed as on the payroll of Hamas. Just in time for the ICJ and South Africa's claims about killing journalists. Confirmed: journalists Hamza al-Dahdouh and Mustafa Thuria were members of Gaza-based terrorist organizations. On Jan 7, an IAF aircraft directed by troops targeted the operators of a drone, posing a threat to our soldiers near Rafah. The operators were later identified as al-Dahdouh and Thuria. Documents found by our troops in Gaza revealed Thuria’s role as Squad Deputy Commander in Hamas' Gaza City Brigade, as well as Al-Dahdouh’s roles in the Islamic Jihad terrorist organization’s electronic engineering unit and previously as a deputy commander in IJ’s Zeitun Battalion. https://twitter.com/IDF/status/1745177413565223266

In giving political and legal cover to the October 7 Massacre and the Hamas Human Shield Strategy, South Africa has made itself criminally complicit with Hamas' campaign of genocide against our people. @AlJazeera

Yea right........

Confirmed. A wind up troll post then.

Why are you asking me that question? Do you not know or doing your usual childish game playing

Blood libel in the Hague: Human rights attorney Arsen Ostrovsky dissects the legal threat “The claim by South Africa is completely without a shred of merit or any legal basis whatsoever,” says human rights attorney Arsen Ostrovsky, CEO of the International Legal Forum, an Israel-based NGO of lawyers advocating for Israel, in a conversation with Mishpacha. “Essentially, it is no more than a blood libel and act of lawfare, in which South Africa is willingly serving as pro bono counsel for the Iranian regime and Hamas.” Despite Ostrovsky’s contempt for South Africa’s case, he takes the charge very seriously. https://mishpacha.com/do-jewish-lives-matter/

Ask her?

"Starvation as a war crime has never been prosecuted, she says, but her organization has produced a report arguing it is happening in South Sudan and she wants her group to be allowed to conduct an independent investigation in Gaza."

They have yet to investigate that. Hardly have time to submit it tomorrow.

Yes I know but this is topic is about the ICJ case

ok

US Secretary Blinken: "The charge of genocide [against Israel] is meritless. It’s particularly galling, given that those who are attacking Israel – Hamas, Hizballah, the Houthis, as well as their supporter, Iran – continue to openly call for the annihilation of Israel and the mass murder of Jews." https://twitter.com/Ostrov_A/status/1745024603599085765

A word on the judges also in this short clip 'Rather than trying to kill civilians, we made a tremendous effort to prevent it, as opposed to Hamas whose objective was to kill civilians' Prof. Robbie Sabel of Hebrew University breaks down the upcoming ICJ case claiming Israel is committing genocide in #Gaza

BREAKING: Ahead of Israel’s arguments in tomorrow’s Hague Tribunal hearing, Shin Bet chief Ronen Bar recommended in closed hearings that they shame the UN before the world by revealing proof of UNRWA staff involvement in the October 7 Hamas massacre. Watchdog finds UNRWA workers praised Hamas massacres in internal Telegram channel An investigation by the UN Watch monitor group found that United Nations workers in Gaza used an internal Telegram channel, which was meant to facilitate their work, to praise the Hamas massacres on October 7. The probe, released Wednesday, found that many of the workers at the United Nations Relief Works Agency — the UN body for Palestinian refugees — explicitly praised the onslaught, in which some 3,000 terrorists crossed into Israel, killing some 1,200 people and taking 240 hostages, most of them civilians. https://www.timesofisrael.com/watchdog-finds-unrwa-workers-praised-hamas-massacres-in-internal-telegram-channel/

Always trust a UN org especially the ICJ. Right? Lets just skip over the UN in Gaza, just published: Unbelievable! UN Watch's exposure of a Telegram group of 3000 UNRWA teachers in Gaza who celebrated the October 7th massacre and the shocking acts of murder, rape, and atrocities. Yes, the same UN organization that’s supposed to promote the Palestinians and take care of their education but in practice is an integral part of Palestinian terrorism! The same UN condemns Israel time and time again and complains about lack of food. Group of 3,000 UNRWA teachers celebrates Hamas massacre and rape A Telegram group of 3,000 UNRWA teachers in Gaza is replete with posts celebrating the Hamas massacre of October 7th minutes after it began, praising the murderers and rapists as “heroes,” glorifying the “education” the terrorists received, gleefully sharing photos of dead or captured Israelis and urging the execution of hostages. “This is the motherlode of UNRWA teachers’ incitement to Jihadi terrorism,” said Hillel Neuer, executive director of UN Watch, the Geneva-based non-governmental organization that monitors the world body. The Telegram chat group is meant to support UNRWA teachers, and contains dozens of files with UNRWA staff names, ID numbers, schedules and curriculum materials. https://unwatch.org/group-of-3000-unrwa-teachers-celebrates-hamas-massacre-and-rape/

They planned this over 3 weeks ago: Dec 14th 2023 Israel’s current large-scale operation is the last one in Gaza Generals prepare for a lower-intensity campaign against Hamas https://www.economist.com/middle-east-and-africa/2023/12/14/israels-current-large-scale-operation-is-the-last-one-in-gaza https://archive.ph/9X1ya
