The dog ate my homework type excuse from the UN........... Lets hope the UN court fare better in this case UN claims antisemitic posts are due to employee account being hacked (January 5, 2024 / JNS) In what reads like the plot of a thriller no one would write, the United Nations claims that an unknown party hacked an employee’s social-media account, posted Jew-hatred (including comparing Israelis to Nazis) and then evidently out of concern for the reputation of the woman that he or she had hacked, deleted the account. Even that sequence of events took some time to get there. At first, the United Nations claimed that the account was a fake and didn’t belong to its employee in Germany, a writer and consultant named Lamia Burkart, and told a man being targeted by the account to delete his posts connecting the account to Burkart. https://www.jns.org/un-claims-antisemitic-posts-are-due-to-employee-account-being-hacked/

You always do......lol no need to tell me

That was explained in one of the links I provided, obviously you did not read it.

Why answer a trolling question? If you have to ask me that then you can go back to page one OP. Not here to play games

Yes I know its all here https://www.timesofisrael.com/british-lawyer-to-defend-israel-from-gaza-genocide-claims-in-the-hague/

This topic is about hostages and your link is wrong, that decision has already been confirmed by Israel, its a leading genocide expert, he wrote the book on it....... British barrister to represent Israel against genocide claims A British barrister has been chosen to represent Israel in the International Court of Justice next week, as the country defends itself against a claim of genocide. Professor Malcolm Shaw KC, a leading expert on territorial disputes and a published author on the law of genocide, was said to be “proud, honoured and privileged” to have been handed the case. A graduate of both the University of Liverpool and the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Professor Shaw’s selection signals Israel’s reversal of a decades-long policy of boycotting the UN court, which is based in The Hague. https://archive.ph/HWLXw https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2024/01/04/british-barrister-to-represent-israel-genocide-claim/

That will probably make as much difference to Israel as it did to Russia when it appealed the provisional decision on the Ukraine case

Yes I posted that a "provincial decision" may be made before the final one earlier in the topic.....lol If it does Israel may also not accept decision, and raise “preliminary objections” to the Court’s jurisdiction and the inadmissibility of the application.

Jolly good, that was always my point too. Currently many professionals think it is meritless and fact less but lets see what the judges decide, it will be a few years of waiting on that for a full decision based on other cases.

I don't know, do you think the judge will be looking at that and making his own determination?

I'm with you, I made a similar post some time ago. But I'll expand a little. Just like the war between Ukraine and Russia I believe there is a clear instigator who started this and who has carried out mass atrocities. I don't believe in sitting on the fence with that war and I don't believe in sitting on the fence on the war between Israel and the terrorists Hamas. Just like the Ukraine/Russia war, while I am firmly on the side of Ukraine, I also believe that Ukraine has committed a few unfortunate incidents that could be classed as war crimes, however they are few are far between, Russia however has been systematic in this and on a very different scale with intent. The same can be said of this war. Hamas carries out war crimes systemically and daily, its part of its make up, how it fights. Using human shields are a war crime as is using the civilian infrastructure to fight from and of course rockets fired indiscriminately into civilian areas into Israel, along with a good percentage of those landing back in Gaza killing its own civilians. This is without even mentioning the 7th oct atrocities. The IDF has also made mistakes in its bombing campaign and admitted as such in some incidents, they could if investigated be possible war crimes? Again the huge difference here is scale and intent, Hamas deliberate daily war crimes with intent. If Israel stops, Hamas will not, its already said it will carry on and on again with attacks like Oct 7th. The only way for this to end is with Hamas totally dismantled as much as can be and a new Palestinian gov in Gaza if that is possible.

This is how it usually goes in a debate: Hamas apologist: "Not all Palestinians are Hamas" Israeli: "We're going to eradicate Hamas" Hamas apologist: "OMG YOU WANT TO KILL ALL PALASTINIANS"

When you have nothing else, go to your fall back, its up to the judges, yes we know. Expect a full decision in a few years, the most that will happen now is a provisional decision in a few weeks.

Yes I called it a farce before, I've elaborated a little it is also a sham. However according to those with more knowledge than me, its also fact less and meritless

do you think the judges will be ignoring the evidence of Hamas deliberately using civilians as human shields

Read the topic @ozimoron ^^^^^

Read it and find out

No you said it has nothing to do with Hamas, you are very wrong, its everything to do with Hamas. That's why there is this sham case

I've read what they have said So what are the lawyers acting on behalf of Israel going to be concentrating on? You say you've read what they have to say? If you think providing credible links is nothing more than being a parrot, then I suggest you are now starting the usual trolling responses

So you missed the 55 references to Hamas in the report? I've not read it in full but its a pdf, its fully searchable without having to read it in its entirety. You claimed its nothing to do with Hamas, try again.

Again you are just not reading this topic and miss the professionals including lawyers that I have referenced that have read it. Including: John Kirby dismisses South Africa’s accusation against Israel: “We find this submission meritless, counterproductive, completely without any basis in fact whatsoever.”

From me? I've not read it, I've already told Jeff that so yet again proof you've not read this topic,

I'll wait for Jeff's response

Well have you read it, you asked me but have you?
