- Israel will present its arguments during a public hearing at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) initiated by South Africa. South Africa accuses Israel of committing actions in Gaza that are "genocidal in character". South Africa is urging the court to declare that Israel “has breached and continues to breach its obligations under the Genocide Convention", to order Israel to cease hostilities in Gaza, to offer reparations, and to provide for reconstruction of what it has destroyed in Gaza.

#ICJ #Israel #Genocide
It's wild to me how few US news agencies even talked about this. I didn't see any of them streaming this
They don't want the people to see the truth if Israel was innocent it would live streaming on every station. What does that tell us that they know Israel is 💯 guilty of intent to Genocide
Bcz the Media is C O R R U P T
They are hypocrite, certainly paid to not broadcast this even though they broadcasted yesterday. I have already noticed.
The hearing at the court in The Hague is ridiculous to the point of stupidity. Where were they when there was genocide in Syria, Yemen, and in every country where the religion of Islam rules, including South Africa??? No one has said a word so far! Just shocking. Israel is right and justice is with them. Wait and see! South Africa took a break from being the most failed country in the world and came to educate the world ??? 🤣🤣🤣 How ridiculous can it be! . Justice is near and God will avenge the blood of the kidnapped and murdered, praying for the return of the kidnapped, and for the victory of Israel 🙏🏾. Israel in an unjust trial in The Hague.
Cause the CEOS ARE ……
ICJ should prove now that they are an INDEPENDENT body and doesn't make BIASED decisions under anyone influence or pressure
Nah they are completely political.
exactly, they must prove that they are not just american puppets
a majority of puppets just like those who were paid to rally, what can they do??
Which means give the resolution that you like XD
they will prove what we all know... SELL OUTS

Not if they consider it the perfect actions committed by the perfect person universally and timelessly
Both yesterday's and today's arguments were each 3 hours long and it's clear the vast majority of commenters haven't listened to them, at least in their entirety. It is a time commitment, but essential to understanding this case.
yea, its sad how people think they are qualified to talk, while watching only the first 10 minutes.
Agree
Don't forget reading the South African written statements submitted. I haven't been able to find the Israeli ones (if there are any).
What I can say is that South Africa's arguments are pretty.... bad. They don't make sense in terms of the law, prima facie they have not disclosed the requirements for finding genocide (frankly, I don't think they disclosed a reasonable cause of action to go with their claim), and it was not well argued.
It's pretty laughable
@@somethingwitty3647 I think you've adopted the onus quote a substantial passage from one of these arguments you allege to be bad. It should take you very little time, and it's the bare minimum follow through, given what you've already written.

He hasnt once mentioned Palestinians as civilians. He only speaks of Hammas. This proves their point that Isreal does not consider them seperate.
As sad as it is, the dead REAL civilians are collateral damage
Most of the Palestinians are either in support or even involved with Hamas.
If elections were held in the west bank TODAY, Hamas would win in a landslide. Ideologically there is almost no distinguishen.
You're proving his point there bud 😂

@dataeater1319 highly doubt it very sad
this wasn’t even about hamas it was about the killing of the civilians
My apologies, non suffering across the world 🌍
it is all about Hamas killing their own civilians, They instigated these terrible atrocities willfully knowing the destruction it will cause among its civilians.
Let's remember the hostages killed holding a white flag. The general killing is without discrimination and not following the acts of war. This makes genocide a real possibility & the case valid.
You are referring to the Israelis hostages killed by Israelis soldiers?
@@Eagles_Hunteryea
Let's remenber the terrorists with White flags exploding themselfs on soldiers either?
The Israelis making a mistake with friendly fire and unintentionally killing hostages will not strengthen this case. Battles in a war are unlike most people can imagine. There is "The Fog of War"! When you are fighting there is a level of chaos, confusion, emotion and often one's values and being are challenged to the core. Mistakes can happen due to plenty of factors like poor visibility, momentary panic or a host of other factors.
@@MartinChibanda
You are right. But this is not the case here.
This is not a defense. This is blame.
It is like the guy who is in court charged with raping and murdering a woman he kept locked in a dungeon, and his defense is something like, "Well I brought her dinner."

When is the final verdict
Israel didn't respond to the accusations and South Africa never defended Hamas, but clearly condemned them. Not I'm surprised, that's all they can do in this scenario.

The resources used by SA was all from the UN agencies and independent journalism whereas IL presented only their own resources or the genocide supported the USA. So who should one trust: Those presenting UN evidences? Or those who brought their own made evidences?
Ok, if IL is so human friendly, let UN security forces based on multiple countries go in Gaza to investigate. If IL denies this, must understand who is a liar.
Hamas attacked Israel. Hamas is an elected body by the people of Gaza and they declared war on another country. I've never heard of a war with 0 civilian casualties.
Response in removing people from their home is not war, it's defence. And the war is fought between equals. Oppressed are further pressed and then call it a war? Some grace is required even to chose an enemy.

We've (our governments at least) not questioned much of what Israel does before. Not really. They've never had to have a strong argument, up till now, so it's unsurprising they don't have one here.
Since it can't plausibly be argued that they (Israel) won on merit,, I'm interested to see how the court will rule on the matter.
@@leavesinautumn5959 No, I left off at about 1:30:00, and will probably watch the rest tomorrow just so I can honestly claim to have done so.
I'm not really expecting it to get any better, but at the same time I am quite _genuinely_ shocked at how bad Israel's defense is thus far. I'm not saying that for rhetorical effect, I literally mean that what I've heard thus far vividly confounds my very real expectation that I'd at least hear something that rises to the level of the superficially specious.
I was _not_ expecting what could be described - without the slightest hyperbole - as the complete and utter absence of any argument whatsoever.
@@hadronoftheseus8829 Then I'd not suggest you follow the story from their end, via Israeli domestic media. If their presentation at the ICJ has you flummoxed, not sure how you'll cope with that.
They've out and out said they'll ignore the verdict at the ICJ, so one has to question just how much effort they're putting into their defence.
Galit Raguan said at 2:04:20 "there is no limit on food and water and ..... that can be brought into Gaza".
This can easily be categorized as a lie.
It is not. The fact that the food, water and fuel do not reach the citizens is because Hamas steals everything 🙂
Her statement starts with "Israel says" which may be true.
So where is your proof that the opposite is the case ?
@@DianelosGeorgoudis, Galit said "Israel has public stated repeatedly that there is no limit on the amount of food, water, shelter or medical supplies that can be brought into Gaza." I categorize the part "there is no limit on the amount of food, water, shelter or medical supplies that can be brought into Gaza." as a lie.
@@guusvandermeulen7210 If you're not on the terrain, you can't know
The Court cant enforce any orders, however there are reasons why Israel is frightened about the outcome. Apart from the impact on global opinion, any provisional orders against Israel that they choose to ignore could result in legal action in countries that support Israel. A country that has a prima facie judgement against them that they are committing genocide will almost certainly run into trade restrictions on arms supplies and other material support.
Yeah, but I think they'll have a good case to ignore the ruling based on Article 51 of the UN Charter, and that the ICJ ruling is just outrageously biased and therefore not something to be followed. The ICJ would undermine their legitimacy here, if they just rule how they want instead of according to their own laws. Any Court that acted in such a way would not be seen as fair or acting in a manner that is codified by law. That the judges might just rule however according to the politics of themselves and their home states is what made the ICJ so friggen controversial in the first place.
This Application should have been dismissed on the grounds of disclosing no actionable grounds. On its face, there was nothing lending to the charge of genocide
Not necessarily. Israel has good opportunity to tell the truth about the war and world can understand

We will see how much power & influence they truly have when the verdict comes.
Have you watched the defense from Israel?
Have you watched this one bro?
The only thing south africa said is.... mandela mandela.... palestinians suffer 75, which has nothing to do with the claim which is genocide... and 3 tweets. If U don't see how they can defend a position that didn't even adress the main claim of genoice you're not very knowledged on law

they will cry victim and antisemitism ...as usual

They have dismantled every past and possibly future point SA could make. The fact that this case even reached Hague is an embarrassment.
@@DaniTheHerothat’s just hogwash. This has put the ICJ to the test of its very purpose.

I love how Israel thinks this began on the 7th of October 2023
I mean this current escalation did
Lmao
They know it didn't. They are just trying to make the rest of the world think it did.
When did “it” started you think?
Of course they don't they have been attacked time & time again & rockets are a daily event ... so your statement is not factual
This is absolutely ridiculous. On the one hand Israel's defence is laughable and on the other hand the fact that even a ruling against them won't change anything really shows you that human rights only apply sometimes. And a very few decide when they do.
This is a test of civilisation and globally held myths.
A ruling against them would change a lot. USA would probably still back israel with a veto but, for sure, no UE country would keep suporting israel at the risks of being found associates of its crimes.
Their defense was:- small lie, lie, big lie, small weasel, weasel, big weasel, blame the victim, repeat.
A ruling against Israel will have an uninterruptable domino effects, the supplying of money and weapons flows, will most likely become illegal in western countries.
Biden his generals and other world politicians will be investigated, in their own countries to check if they aided and abetted Israel in genocidal actions.
Its like Holywood movie. Make belief un believable.

newsflash, win or lose, they won't stop until the hostages are free, even though it's almost certain it will get thrown out since south africa can't prove intent.
Minimise civilian targets..
Like the poor grandmother walking down an empty street holding the hand of her young grandchild as part of a small group of people evacuating as ordered by the IDF - and her shot dead in the middle of the street by a sniper?

@@davidnilsson5045the videos speak for themselves hun
When you have to base your defense on formal errors that were made when submitting the accusations, then you know that there is nothing substantial you have to defend yourself.
The defense is very clear. Hamas started all this. How can you justify hamas who build attack stations for a mosque.. a mosque and even hospitals come on. How can you justify this ?. What would you do if you where a nation in context. If you had a bacteria I your body and you treat it does that mean you have harmed the bacteria population ?. What are your actual arguments. . Isreal to stop defending itself. This is war . Hamas shoots rockets too. Its too bad they are not as good as jsreal in war. If they knew they would complain this much then why start a war... is seems clear that hamas has always planned to use the Palestinian citizens as shield not isreal.
Absurd. Every lawyer knows that you have to present both procedural and substantive points, which is exactly what Israel has done. Don't go to law school - you will be hopeless as a lawyer.
This is not a defense...it is a justification plea...🙄
The inane comments made by non-lawyers make want to alternately laugh and cry.
@alexanderkaplan8906 the first guy rambles for 30 minutes about things irrelevant to the case. He then lies saying south Africa has no interest in hamas. When South Africa clearly stated in their case that the only reason they are not suing hamas is because the convention statute does not allow for them to do so as hamas is not a signing state of the convention...
Absolutely horrible defense. South Africa already said what they expected them to say. If I was Israeli id be embarrassed
They don't know the definition of shame... People forget this was going on while and before the Holocaust was occurring yet the world completely ignored the Palestinians.
That’s how court cases, anyone can predict what the other is going to say, as they know but the problem
Is that can Israel actually prove what they are doing isn’t genocide..
moreover there are two sides to every conflict and statement.. you can’t say this what I mean when it’s not..
you get me
If I accuse an innocent person of murder, it doesn't take much intelligence from me to predict he is going to say he is innocent.
South Africa's case is significantly strong. Israel's defense was predictable and found insufficient.
Did you watch the defense? They provided the documented facts, videos, photos, voice captures - unlike SA who was just reusing prohamas rhetoric.
Wow! Horrible defense.
Israel did exactly say, what South Africa expected them and wanted them to say.
South Africa made a great job showing Israel intend to commit genocide. Israel was not able to refute anything. All they had to say was “but Hamas”
All they said is 'But Hamas'? You didn't watch it, uh?
Keep quiet if you have nothing meaningful to say
Because actions have consequences, you can’t hold Israel and leave Hamas

Golda Meir said : " If palestinians mothers loverd their children more , then they are hated our children, there was always peace....! Bright words!💪🙏🇮🇱💗
For the West Bank nothing will change (Israel already lifted even the restrictions to work in Israeli territories for them). In Gaza Palestinians will return and rebuild with a lot of international aid, elect a new government obsessed with elimination of Israel and the cycle will repeat. This happened many times and this will repeat as long as Israel and both Palestinian governments will become interested in the long-term peace which now couldn't be said about any of them.
Lets Hope the court can be unbiased and honest and deliver the RIGHT verdict . 🤞
You’re so partisan it’s pathetic.
The right verdict is obviously ruling that israel is indeed doing genocide
Why do Israel not imply the provisional measures asked for, without a court decision?
The measures only ask not to conduct certain specific named unlawful acts. Like cutting of water and electricity.
Until October 7, the poor "innocent Palestinians" had electricity and water. You don't know what you're talking about. (despite the likes you get from all the ignoramuses here).
Well, if you don't make life in Gaza unlivable, how are they going to leave? This genocide is not about getting square. This has always been about stealing land.
@@foxisok well that doesn't matter does it
Prior to the barbaric attack by hamas, hamas controlled 90 % of both water & electricity in Gaza.

All these photos were taken by IDF. N we all know how reliable IDF is at reporting their own mistake and crime
They are in cort and they have to give legal and truthful photos. Maybe you watched too many movies that your mind doesn't work by itself.

They're logic is, that if one of your relatives is a criminal then they all are criminals. The other logic is, you're a terrorist if someone steals your home, kills your family and oppresss your family for decades. And you fight back.
I love how they didnt adress anything SA said

Lies, lies and more lies….
Go to gaza and see there truth...!
The audacity to commit purgery in the ICJ
Its just the same type of argument everytime, strawman, ad hominem. Bizarre, how do they think a court of law is so easily tricked into emotive arguments over legal. None of the judges think hamas are Palestinian civilians.
Oh interesting, you're in the judge heads ? Can you tell me more about their youth, ask their minds about how it was when they were 20yo ?
It is astounding that people are more concerned about intellectual bravado and presentation of imagery than moral courage. It is wild what we're defending in so called modern times!!

Who cares, everyone there sees it on TH-cam
This is interesting. Israel seems to be claiming that it’s not genocide bc Hamas is a terrorist group and this is a war. So ICJ needs to basically define what is acceptable in war
On the premise Israel are being accused perhaps Britain are guilty in WW11 bombing Germany. More Germans were killed than in UK.
Do you honestly think Britain would have a cease fire for humanitarian movement in Germany. Do you think would provide food, water & electricity...of course not.

This guy is basically saying, "Yes we are committing genocide because ....". He's not disputing claims of genocidal intent by Israel, but justifying it.
Fact.
Yup
Precisely!
They are justifying their actions against Hamas. If you strike in such densely populated region, there are casualties
@@programming_and_snacks5192"No one is innocent in Gaza" not even half of the population which are children 😮
This is a clear case. The genocide must immediately stop and everyone who is complicit should face justice.
What genocide? Where is the evidence of intent?

How in earth you say that ....
Israel is an occupation... Are you here in earth man
Jesus Christ- one of the cornerstones to their argument is that they have the right to defend themselves. Hamas has said they will do it again - HAMAS are using their own people as human shields. The question is of proportionality and whether Israel crossed the threshold into genocide. They should get peace keeping forces in there.
Africa= Why Hamas still holding hostages? why why why?
1. To protect the leadership.
Hamas has been asking for a ceasefire to exchange the rest of the hostages for months now. Israel has refused to quit bombing for even this period of serious reflection, showing a foul farting in the face of the International community.
to make Israel stop bombing their people. so Why IDF keep on bombing, shooting civillians , even they raised the white flag. why why why?
They holding mostly soliders
why does Israel imprision palestinians without trial indefinitely? why why why?

Very true
True, they should be very ashamed for supporting terrorists as their leaders that cause them so much sad stories.
They are all lies
@jyang - like the sad stories they create themselves and then use to justify, as revealed by the Israeli daily, Ha aretz
Talk talk, no defence to the courtroom.
Shamefull enough not mentioning about ICJ news for mainstream media... The same may happen to social media if they go on using algobots that much..
They are calling themselves evil over and over
I sincerely hope I am wrong but from the optics of the judges I dont expect much...like the deafening silence from most of Europe the so called bulwark of humanity and justice..
Exactly what i thought
the majority of judges are pro Israel. The only way South Africa will win is if 1 or 2 of them flip which is highly unlikely.

@@Acidfox86 what evidence??? Haha bruh u are the brainwashed one when u talking about Israel and evidence
Hamas supporters are not human
what is he trying to proof?, i though he is defending Israel against the genocide claim but he kept and kept on talking about Hamas, why no use international law articels and reference on his speach
he sounds unprofessional and scared even while reading a note
what a shame for the genocidal side
Everyone who would ever defend israel is so deep in the hasbara sauce only hamas and oct 7 exist in their vocabulary.
They say Hamas when they really mean Palestinians
Hamas is a armed party to the conflict and therefore they must be addressed
Seems like he's more trying to justify the genocide rather than disprove it.
This is quasi impossible because of israel's subsistence diet and illegalizing import seeds.
There are Palestinians on Oct 7, more than the number of Hamas but of course, u can choose to be deluded.
I feel so ASHAMED of the UK providing lawyers to deny Genocide yet again.
HOW CAN THEY? IT'S ATROCIOUS.
Well their first defence fails “their right to defend themselves within appropriate measures” those measures are set by international law and the very fact that they have breached and gone beyond the test of appropriate response is what is on trial here.
The threat dictates the response dingus.
Nope, this isn't a trial for their actions, it's solely to decide :" Is it genocide or not?"
"Someone has shuffled my papers..."
What a shambles this defence is.
Shambles just like your comments which fails to address any of the points raised by criticise the optics of what is happening

There is no hamas in west bank. Why west bank people have to face the same atrocity and apartheid like gaza?
Wrong. Hamas is in the west bank. They've launched suicide bombing in the past and recently.
If the west bank is not complicit, why were they celebrating genocide on October 7 th. Ah! Genocide is okay when it is not happening to them?

the fact is that israel bombed the wrong target and persist doing so with the accomplice of many countries, mainly usa.

"""" Thursday's death ( 11-01-24) brought to 343 the number of Palestinians killed by Israelis in the West Bank since Oct. 7, according to figures released by the Health Ministry. 241 Palestinians were killed by settlers mostly in their terror raids in Palestinians villages during the weeks after Oct 7th. 102 Palestinians were killed by IDF during the 'anti terror raids' in the main Palestinians cities . The IDF did not provide any official information for 78 killings . """"
Big waste of time and money. This court has no real power against USA interest nor whosoever they support but every other countries.
Wanna bet? That attitude is what demoralized so many countries from making a stand. Let's applaud those that did instead of forever complaining and doing nothing

You know they have no defense when they are going after technicalities and even there they have no basis to argue.
You know someone has no knowledge of court proceedings when you read that kind of comments
The defense to South Africa's complaint, focusing at one point on Israel's obvious delay in responding to South Africa's complaint, is unpersuasive. Skipping over the "acts element." Arguing there is a lack of evidence of intent - claiming 'random assertions' by Israel's PM and Ministers don't show intent. So the death of 22,000+ mostly women and children, literally flattening Gaza, and inciting rhetoric by Netanyahu (etc.) do not reflect policy.
The court should be adjourned and reconvened in Gaza. See how long they last without water or lunch. It would no longer be an academic issue.
would serve as even more of a proof for our actions against hamas, since they are the ones who took the billions of dollars of aid before, and the humanitarian aid now for themselves, there were videos for proof on the on this video, and there are testimonies from gazan civilians
