The Legal Case Against Joe Biden for Enabling Israel’s Genocide Against Gaza

This is the best summary I could come up with:

A panel of judges at the International Court of Justice in The Hague has entered deliberations in the preliminary phase of South Africa’s historic suit against Israel, charging it with carrying out a genocide against the Palestinians of Gaza.

And whereas he has shifted to what I’d have to say at this point is a chauvinistic and even xenophobic position against Palestinians, that level of disregard for their humanity, or even the acknowledgement of their own suffering, the South Africans are applying the same principles of opposition to apartheid in their country to Israel and Palestine.

JS: While we’re waiting for the judges to potentially issue these provisional measures, there are several cases that have been brought that deal with the Israeli government’s onslaught against the people of Gaza, one of them is taking place in federal court in the United States, and there are going to be arguments [on] January 26th of this year, just next week.

Prime Minister Netanyahu’s statements stood in stark contrast to what Israel’s lawyers tried to do over three hours on Friday in The Hague, and that was to tell the court: don’t worry, we have it under control, trust us, and we’re scaling back operations anyway.

And the concrete ruling will have even further effect, both legally, in the form of potential cases at the national level, and certainly diplomatically, where we may see moves to isolate Israel, and also to have countries behave differently, in terms of how much support they are willing to give to a regime that is attempting a genocide against the Palestinian people.

Obviously, the ICJ and these other institutions of international law were created kind of out of the moment of World War II, and the destruction and the chaos that had been unleashed, to try to put some sort of guidelines around human rights, and the way states and peoples are allowed to deal with each other.

The original article contains 8,164 words, the summary contains 321 words. Saved 96%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!

- The US provides financial and material support to Israel and so should leverage over the country
Democrats should not be supporting genocide.
- You would think this didnt need to be said,
  
  Yet here we are.
Oh sweet summer child. President Trump literally supported an insurrection and he’ll never be held accountable. To think a president would be held responsible for anything short of shooting somebody at point blank is laughable.
- Cheney shot someone and nothing happened. Rules and laws are only for the proletariat,
  
  Ding ding ding!
It's love to know what ops day job is. Dude is a non-stop propaganda machine. I hope he's at least getting paid for his services.
- I work in IT and it literally takes 5 seconds to post a news article. It's still political news and there's an up vote and down vote button for a reason.
  
  Definitely appreciate your candor.
