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.

    Biden has literally spent 50 years telling Israels government he’ll always support them no matter what, but they need to be careful before normal citizens call them out for their actions.

    Israel has never listened to Biden, but this is one promise I don’t think he’ll ever break.

    Dude openly calls himself a zionist, he’s with them 100%.
