By Middle East Eye Global Research, What You Need to Know About South Africa’s Genocide Case Against Israel at the ICJ The International Court of Justice (ICJ) in the Hague will hold hearings on Thursday and Friday in response to South Africa’s accusation of genocide against Israel. More than 23,000 Palestinians have been killed in the ongoing war on Gaza, including more than 9,000 children. South Africa wants an emergency order calling on Israel to suspend its military campaign, which it launched after an attack by Hamas-led Palestinian fighters on 7 October, which killed 1,140 people, according to Israeli officials. The state filed the lawsuit at the end of December, citing statements made by Israeli public officials and the acti...

By Peter Koenig Global Research, “I wish I could have died with them” – crying Hamada Abu Sleyma told Al-Mayadeen Media Network, an independent Arab satellite news channel. He said he just left home for five minutes trying to buy some bread from a nearby bakery, when an Israeli airstrike hit his family’s house, destroyed it completely and buried his entire family alive.

The few hospitals that are partially functional are overwhelmed with trauma cases, critically short of all supplies, and inundated by desperate people seeking safety.

Infectious diseases are spreading in overcrowded shelters as sewers spi...

By John J. Mearsheimer John’s Substack  I am writing to flag a truly important document that should be widely circulated and read carefully by anyone interested in the ongoing Gaza War. Specifically, I am referring to the 84-page “application” that South Africa filed with the International Court of Justice (ICJ) on 29 December 2023, accusing Israel of committing genocide against the Palestinians in Gaza.[1] It maintains that Israel’s actions since the war began on 7 October 2023 “are intended to bring about the destruction of a substantial part of the Palestinian national, racial and ethnic … group in the Gaza Strip.” (1) That charge fits clearly under the definition of genocide in the Geneva Convention, to which Israel is a signatory.[2] The application is a superb descri...

JEWISH TALMUD Sanhedrin 59a: “Murdering Goyim is like killing a wild animal. Nazi Heritage Minister Amichai Eliyahu urged that Nazi entity “must find ways for Gazans that are more painful than death” to defeat them and break their morale, as the US did with Japan. 1,000 Children Have Undergone Amputations Without Anaesthesia in Gaza Nazi Eliyahu expressed, in statements to Zionist radio station 103 FM, that Israel must decide the battle by breaking the morale of the Palestinians in Gaza and causing them pain involving their land, destroying homes, breaking their national dream and voluntary immigration.

More Israeli War Crimes: Gaza’s Child Amputees Face Further Risks Without Expert Care By Arafat Barbakh, Maggie Fick, and Emma Farge Global Research, Apart from the obvious, also sending to demonstrate again that even for the most unlikely, this massacre is proving a desert too far.

Give Me My Liberty or Give Me Death”, The Evidence: The World’s Most Documented Genocide in Modern History Global Research, CT Mirror and DDN “The people of Gaza will not suffer another wholesale displacement to the Sinai from their homes in Gaza. They have repeatedly stated that “Heaven is closer than Sinai” a sentiment not unlike that once championed by America in out early history — “Give me Liberty or Give Me Death.” In the face of this ongoing genocide, the Biden Administration and Congress refuse to call for a ceasefire.

Mike Whitney By Mike Whitney, January 08, 2024 This week’s drone strike on senior Hamas leader Saleh al-Arouri in southern Beirut provides compelling evidence that Israel wants to expand the conflict beyond its borders.
