• Colombia has requested permission from the International Court of Justice to intervene in South Africa’s case against Israel for genocide in Gaza, aiming to protect Palestinian safety and existence.
  • The ICJ has ordered Israel to ensure timely food supplies to Gaza and previously instructed Israel to refrain from actions under the genocide convention and to prevent genocidal acts against Palestinians, which Israel denies, attributing its actions to targeting Hamas rather than civilians.

    Plus South Africa and Ireland have a special bond with Palestine due to their own past as victims of especially awful colonialist atrocities. They get what Gaza is going through better than most other countries that anyone in the West will listen to.

          Iran is pretty much the central consideration in any matter of mid east policy. If you don’t see the relevance I’m not sure you have any credibility to talk about this, like at all.

            Yeah because it can’t be that they care about the Israeli government committing genocide and a shitload of other crimes against humanity because those actions are bad things to do 🙄

            Diplomatic relations with Iran and lack of same is completely irrelevant to the facts of the matter.

            Iran isn’t forcing the Israeli government to massacre and starve to death tens of thousands of civilians, most of whom are children.

              Iran cares about human rights? Their world view does not recognize human rights that cannot be instantly suspended in the name of religious superstition or fear. You obviously don’t know what you’re talking about.

                Nobody except you is talking about Iran. You can pack that ridiculous whataboutism away.

                Their world view does not recognize human rights that cannot be instantly suspended in the name of religious superstition or fear

                Sounds identical to Netanyahu and Ben-Gvir on that count.

                You obviously don’t know what you’re talking about.

                Right back at you, Hasbara Harry.

                Yes. I’m not going to elaborate since I checked your comment history and found out that you’re either a paid Israeli government representative, an idiot gaslighting for free, or both.

                Either way, I might as well try to explain to Donald Trump that there is such a thing as too much gold in interior design as try to make you acknowledge any of the many crimes against humanity being committed by the Israeli government in Gaza and the West Bank.

                Have the day you deserve.

                    I know what you’ve been spewing about Gaza on here, which is plenty information to determine that I will NOT be eating the shit you’re shoveling and that you have nothing but pro-apartheid genocide denying shit to offer on this particular topic.

                    You go have fun with that at the local Hasbara Fellowship while the rest of us deal with the objective reality you’re denying.

                    “You obviously have no idea what you’re talking about. Read some books little kid.”

                    Whatever your age is, you sure as hell don’t act it.

            Oh bugger off!!! You can’t even accept credible sources. Maybe YOU should stop talking nonsense all over every day
