יוסף חדאד - Yoseph Haddad @YosephHaddad: These are not "freedom fighters" and this is not "resistance"... these are a bunch of monstrous terrorists, sadistic murderers and barbaric rapists and it is called "terrorism"!Mar 29, 2024 Link

It's about Islamic Bigotry stupid. OIC/ICC/ICJ - same "difference" by now. What is the difference between the Islamic countries block [lobby] OIC control in the UN and: ICJ --especially under racist Arab Nawaf Salam-- and ICC--especially under Islamic Karim Khan? - the latter is also a hypocrite, given his defense for Charkes Taylor, Liberian war criminal. Just like twisted misrepresented "report" by Omar Shakir apartheid slur (2021), using HRW for his long time bigoted activities long before joining the organization. At least since 2010. _ Related: President of UN's top court has long history of anti-Israel bias: 'Conflict of interest.'....

It was to be expected. It was a long time in the making. The racist and anti-Semitic government of South Africa, a country in decline and on its way to destruction and anti-white ethnic cleansing which annihilated the former Rhodesia which became Zimbabwe, filed a complaint against Israel a few months ago before the International Criminal Court for “war crimes” and “crimes against humanity”, and the complaint was deemed admissible by its prosecutor, a British Muslim named Karim Khan. The man named Karim Khan decided to request international arrest warrants against Binyamin Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant. If these arrest warrants...

The IDF has reduced the number of troops deployed in eastern Rafah and the Givati Brigade left the Gaza Strip overnight from the area where it had been operating for the last three weeks. The military explained, according to a report by Ynet, that this was done to allow the troops to return to Gaza and Rafah at a later date 'refreshed' after weeks of combat. Four combat teams from the 162nd Division remain. According to the report, the Givati Brigade's departure from the southern city in the Gaza Strip comes amid reports that Israel will allow the reopening of...

Reacting to UN's ICJ ruling under racist Arab-Islamic Nawaf Salam Expert Analysis (on ): “This is another day of shame for the ICJ in its discriminatory treatment of Israel. Let’s not forget that this case was brought by South Africa — a country disgraced by a leadership that actively supports Hamas and that tars Israel with the defamatory accusation of ‘genocide.’ Israel, which has undertaken a major effort to move more than a million civilians out of Rafah to safety in advance of its operation to defeat Hamas in that city, will rightly disdain this ruling.” Ambassador Arden: "We don't...

The court's orders The ICJ has made several orders including for Israel to: • halt military operation in Rafah • open the Rafah border crossing with Egypt for the entry of humanitarian aid at scale • ensure access to Gaza for investigators and fact-finding missions • report to the court within a month on its progress in applying these measures 13-2 judgement

Why ICC’s ingrained bias ensures no fair ‘trials’ for Israel. May 24, 2024 | Greg Rose Karim A. A. Khan KC, Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court (ICC) Karim A. A. Khan KC, Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court (ICC) The Australian – 24 May 2024 The request for an arrest warrant against Benjamin Netanyahu and his Defence Minister, made by the International Criminal Court’s chief prosecutor, is unsurprising, but not for the reasons many might think. An integral purpose of the ICC’s political project has always been to delegitimise Israel. A target was drawn on Israel in the 1990s...

OPINION China’s recent outcry over the alleged breach of ‘Gentleman’s Agreement’ with the Philippines reveals a profound irony, given the history of its coercion and deceit There is a huge amount of insincerity and gall involved in the Chinese complaint that the Philippines had torn up the bilateral ‘Gentleman’s Agreement,’ between Beijing and Manila. While the term ‘Gentleman’s Agreement’ has an implicit assumption of ‘trust’ as a fundamental tenet besting a relationship, which may otherwise not be legally binding -- to even imagine that there has been any element of ‘trust’ between these two sparing countries, is to put oneself...

ON THAT G SLUR (PALLYWEID)Omer Bartov can be credited to be the first to come up with the G slur at the Oct 7 war. Which explains why longtine Israelophobe C. Amanpour promoted his rhetoric on Nov 15, 2023, and she anxiously asked him when the G word can already/finally be applied. That was long before Gaza's 'dead baby strategy' human-shields en-masse genocidal Hamas Jihadofascist regime sent it's allies in South African government to file at ICJ. ___ On July 25, 2014 racist Francesca Albanese (who recycled antisemitic tropes in 2014 [TOI, 14.12.22; UNWatch, 6.2.23], her husband worked for Palestinian...

The Government is going to intervene in South Africa’s genocide case against Israel at the International Court of Justice. Tánaiste (deputy prime minister) and Minister for Foreign Affairs, Micheál Martin, will update the Cabinet that he has directed officials to prepare a Declaration of Intervention. If approved by the Government, this will be filed at the court in The Hague for the case against Israel under the 1948 Genocide Convention. It is not clear yet what points of law Ireland will reply upon for its intervention. …

Ireland has told the UN’s top court that states are obliged to co-operate to bring an end to “Israel’s serious breach” of its duty to respect the rights of Palestinian people. Irish Attorney General Rossa Fanning said states are obliged not to render aid or assistance in maintaining this situation. He said it was Ireland’s view that all states are required to review trading relationships with settlements in the Occupied Palestinian Territories, requiring them to take steps to prevent trade which maintains settlement activity or implicitly legitimises Israel’s annexation of that territory. The proceedings follow a December 2022 resolution of...

The Irish Government will today make a submission at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in a case concerning Israel’s occupation of Palestinian territory. The proceedings follow a December 2022 resolution of the UN General Assembly, meaning they predate the 7 October massacre in Israel and the ensuing hostilities in Gaza. The assembly has asked the UN’s top court to examine the legal consequences of the “ongoing violation by Israel of the right of the Palestinian people to self-determination” due to its prolonged occupation and settlement of Palestinian territories. The case is entirely separate from the one brought before the...

Do you hear the court in The Hague? The family of the leader of Hamas receives life-saving treatment in a hospital in Israel! Listen to this story: the whole difference between Israeli humanity and the cruelty of Hamas: While the leader of Hamas is holding 136 hostages, and after celebrating the massacre in Otef, the family of Ismail Haniyeh is receiving life-saving treatment in a hospital in Israel. His sister's grandson, who was born in the last few days in Israel, is hospitalized in Pagia in intensive care

They also condemn the government for failing to condemn Hamas's actions in Gaza. Christians throughout South Africa have risen against the government's decision to take Israel to the International Court of Justice (ICJ) on charges that it is committing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza. "The African National Congress government and their allies' decision to take Israel to the International Court of Justice has brought us to a place where, like the time of Queen Esther in the Bible, we cannot keep silent," said Tshego Motaung, head of the Healing of the Nations prayer for Israel movement in an article published...

How could an international commission of legal experts recommend revisiting the age of consent? Children cannot consent to sexual conduct with adults Recently, the International Commission of Jurists (ICJ) published a report advocating for significant revisions to criminal law, such as decriminalizing prostitution, intentional transmission of HIV, and purchasing and possessing drugs for personal use. Most notably, the report also calls to re-examine laws relating to consensual sexual conduct involving children under the age of majority and people with disabilities who ordinarily cannot “consent.” The report states in part: “Consensual sexual conduct…may not be criminalized in any circumstances… Moreover, sexual...

On March 8, 2023, an organization called UNAIDS (which apparently represents the U.N.’s efforts to fight AIDS), came together with The International Committee of Jurists (ICJ), and the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) to officially launch a new set of ‘expert jurist legal principles to guide the application of international human rights law to criminal law.’ In other words, these groups are launching something called the ‘8 March Principles.’ However, for some reason, the document just got attention in the last few days, and … oh boy: The United Nations issued this report calling on member...

A new report from the United Nations has called for all forms of drug use and sexual activity to be decriminalized globally.

A new report from the United Nations has called for all forms of drug use and sexual activity to be decriminalized globally. Written by the International Committee of Jurists (ICJ), UNAIDS and the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR), the report was released on International Women’s Day, with the goal of guiding “the application of international human rights law to criminal law.” Called the “8 March principles,” the report calls for offenses related to “sex, drug use, HIV, sexual and reproductive health, homelessness and poverty” to be decriminalized. The United Nations experts say that criminalizing offenses related...

The International Court of Justice announced on Wednesday that it has set a July 25 date for written submissions by state bodies and organizations on the question of the illegality of Israel’s “occupation”. In December, the UN General Assembly voted in favor of a proposal, promoted by the Palestinian Authority, to request an advisory opinion from the ICJ in The Hague regarding the "legal status of the occupation." The proposal states that Israel's presence in Jerusalem and Judea and Samaria is illegal and asks the Court to recommend the steps that the UN and countries around the world should take...
