It's shameful that the so-called civilised world has been but mere ,hopeless and hypocritical spectators in front of the cruel , inhumane atrocities of the IDF.USA n their associates will have to answer

And thank you and thank you and thank you for your fighting for my brothers and sisters in Palestine, and god help you.

[@shahnaazbadat5303]

Assalaamu Alaikum sister Amina Sanyare. I am South African born I cannot understand why hated our country. I don't think our country had anything to gain by killing Somalian people. I don't have much knowledge on what you are saying about South Africa. Maybe this happened when we living under apartheid and was not aware what was happening. But what we see in our country is a very large Somalian community of Somalian refugees. Who from all refugees from different countries are the MOST successful people here. Even living better than our own South African. Please dear sister be careful what you comment on because you can make life difficult for those who are living here. 🤲🤲🤲🤔🤔🤔

Can anyone, seriously believe that the Israeli Government will take any heed to these proceeding at the ICJ?

[@rustumnoor2691]

Thats not the point, they setting precedent. For example, if another country was do same as Israel is doing, they can do as they will without any global condemnation - iow carrying out a genocide is fair game on a global scale.

[@Jouantiese]

@@rustumnoor2691 The precedent being set is a mockery of the very concept of the ICJ, from some of the world's biggest hypocrites, the terminally corrupt ANC.

[@Jouantiese]

They do take them seriously.

[@kittydukakis]

Thank you, South Africa, and Columbia, China, Ireland and other countries who have spoken out against the genocide. But the only country who can stop the genocide, US, is funding and supervising it.

[@MariaNI-yf1bz]

[@MariaNI-yf1bz]

Do not make or turn this into an anti j wsih campaign. This is not a religious "conflic" This is about a neo c 0lon1al project of the US and UK, stealing land of an indigenoud people. Based on Za y0 n1sm.

[@AmrHussein1805]

Expelling people from their own country is wrong. The wrongs the Europeans have done can’t be undone at the expense of other people. Religion is neither a race nor a national identity and no religion comes with a piece of real estate. Last time I checked I could not find “God” in the real estate directory

[@Sundancer09]

​@tag1343 Israel refused to let Palestinians return to the land they'd taken and refused their right to self-determination.

[@niamhneevekinsella7951]

I really like this Barrister, and indeed the whole South African team. It's so frustrating that months later, and thousands more dead, this team are back in front of the ICJ pleading for a second time for the Court to enforce its rulings. For the love of God, what more will it take? Praying for peace for the Palestinians and for all of humanity.

[@kevintownsend3840]

The US has made threats against the ICC as if they would invade the Netherlands 🇳🇱 if arrest warrants are issued against Israel officials. So much for international law

An excellent review of the illegal actions by the Jewish state. But hope for change through court order will be impossible because Israel as well as the USA haven't signed their allegiance to the ICJ. Only global and united measures could bring a change therefore these facts may hopefully rouse international awareness about the Palestinian plight and the discussion about feasible solutions.

[@user-hm5gl6ll5n]

Thank you South Africa for taking this to the ICJ. Israeli government is not just the recipient of arms from USA but is hand in glove with powerful leaders at the top of the chain in US government. Millions were and now are disgusted by the bombing and continuation of bombing. Hiroshima and Nagasaki sent a message to the world that USA WAS prepared to drop a nuclear bomb to win a war. The crimes of the Japanese Army were horrific. No doubt. The Japanese Army was losing the War by 1945. The bombs not only claimed the 'victory' for the USA, but sent the message to the world that USA Would use heavy arms and unclear bombing if it thought necessary. This set the stage for the Cold War for the next forty years. Now USA and Israel have demonstrated their might and ability to do the same to maintain control, subdue the region and demonstrate its might to the world. In doing so, the actions have thrown the world into a New cold war, New world order. Governments, whole cross sections of populations are aghast by USA decisions to support this genocide. It has created a huge separation between countries, states, people. USA has lost the moral high ground. It cannot claim a peacekeeping role in regions.

South Africa is such a poorly governed country that it needs absurd distraction like this ICC hearing. Genocide, apartheid, violence are words being thrown in freely in arguments. Why can't she plead for release of hostages and there would be peace. Why can't she plead for habeas corpus for hostages and peace will prevail. She should participate in school elocution contest and not argue!!! in a court. Ask of hamas for peace, South Africa. Nice poetry declamation. Lady address these tears to Hamas, and famine in Yemen. School level debating. Genocide is a legal term. How is this piece of literature/dialogue delivery equivalent to genocide.
