5:07 pm
it was a bitter sweet moment. when sammy's new brand son was born in 2005, they named him. yes, if after his uncle who was killed by his really forces 4 years before. oh and the general had done so we wanted him to bring joy to the house. i was heavy. he was born in jordan and i traveled to meet him. but in 2023 and just a few weeks before turning 18. yes, it was buried in the same grief site as his name say, booth killed by the same army, the nobility them. sammy son, sam and mohammed were also killed by israeli forces in 20022015. you want to know if we cannot bring children to this life to die, but to live we want to be able to live in peace and have a good life. i lost my sons when do a very young. they were 1115 and 17 years old. nope,
5:08 pm
every palestinian hominy shares this heavy loss of life. but the few patients still 6, that's all on people, one way or another. let's go now to have run the sounds of the occupied to us bank and see how life there has been brought to a whole once brimming with life and a bustling economy. life is fading away in the last city of have right now. it's a mere echo of what it once was that how did you get in the market said that no visitors know foreigners. we don't find customers for the goods we buy and are in debt for the 75 year old sales pending fee is local artisans, a symbol of the cities rich cultural heritage. in this ahead a, i've been here for 17 years. i keep thinking that if we get a bit better instead of every year, it gets worse and worse, people us get their humiliated the checkpoints, so they avoid this very hold together. this one is something here and however on
5:09 pm
the economy capital of the occupied to us bank, the cities still has a few hours before it goes to see people are shopping and working with the sun has set way earlier in the old city of hebron posted in see time to is a victim of occupation lost in cues, alternative routes, checkpoints, enclosures times, toes and from a nation stuck in waiting need that, but he is either the occupied to us thing in this office. joining us now from ramallah. let's talk a little bit about the they've hearings that been going on with the international court of justice. how were people reacting to those of the well naming and shaming israel on the international stage? a condemnation for their actions against posting in communities across the occupied territories. it is something the palestinians have seen before. it is nothing new. let's get the perspective from remo. lower speaking here to the law or
5:10 pm
a caught the professor of diplomacy and conflict resolution of the air of american university. thank you very much for joining us. of these hearings or condemnation of the un ongoing cases at the i c. j. how consequential are these international events for palestinians like yourself, who have been living under occupation for decades? how consequential are these events? so listen for the policy and people for the nervous citizen of how this time. i think that people have lost faith in every diplomatic or legal tool. however, as a professor of diplomacy, i must have messed us. we cannot abundance and internationally seeking the diplomatic and the legal tools. when we resort to course, it is a 2 course. this is our last resort. that's palestinians. we have tried so many, you know, dialogue fees, processing negotiations. we are dealing with a the other side where we have a life when they seem government that have closed every limits. those people are not only and insulting the palestinians there and something that it's,
5:11 pm
and that's what the community that you, on the u. s. a new station. if we, if we follow the statements of the one that has been exceed, and the other i'm administers in the cabinets, they does the suspect, anybody, they didn't something everybody. and they are unfortunately still enjoying the infinity possible in face of the war crimes that they are coming, figuring stuff out of some young people. however, we didn't, didn't mind the whole world that those tools. of course i didn't have nothing the licensee i to those tools were created after the holocaust. i'm this happened to say never again, never again to own as you might not the so it ends on next. so you have to speaking on a document that has started can level that is again, the victim of the how the cost, assuming say, is now being tied in those course. this is a good listen for history and for humanity with the policy and people are suffering . and because that should not happen in the 1st place. if we talk about human rights. and that's a lot if we want to learn from the basic as something lesson of history that this should be never again for all humanity. however,
5:12 pm
as long as is ryan is going to thing. every genocide them everywhere, crime possible with the legal and ethical dissertation on coverage that is being provided with so many players like the u. s. and the like one of those countries. i don't think anything will stop the crimes of bethany all governments. and in terms of practical steps, the diplomacy, the idea is that achieving justice takes far longer than perpetrating injustice. but how significant is a moral victory on the international stage, which is likely what these cases will lead to little more than a moral victory without any sort of enforcement. how significant is it when palestinians continue to die on a daily basis in garza, in areas across the occupied west bank? what is the possibility for this means they are really dismay, then we feel that we would receive diplomacy had failed since, and that's all law has failed us. however, from a diplomatic and academic perspective, documentation is important and justice takes time. and we have seen and recent history, the other experiences around the world where justice must prevent as long as the
5:13 pm
people tell the truth and continue to raise awareness. and fortunately with the public awareness that is being raised around the world and the people who are calling for humanity and that's, that's because they're a guest, israel just because and that's also because they're pro palestinian but because they're pro humanity, they're pro, you know, the basic principles of being a human. however, i think it's important that some countries who are, you know, in the specs of international law and who are members of the best and did not send them a system, then it to impose solutions. they need to impose sanctions on his way and because this is also diplomatic look through mind the whole world, that's when we talk about un sanctions. when we talk about the course of diplomacy is always diplomatic. so legal and it's all not contested. so when it comes to the bilateral relations with every country, every member states within talking with it needs to be reminded that they are legally and ethically of life. and they have a motor obligation ended on relationships with, is there a don't have to wait for a, you know, consensus when that can you,
5:14 pm
you can just say we need to wait for the whole, you know, that's not true. every country needs to face its obligations, needs to be the mazda, but that does responsible and asked of the ice, a heating the dental side. you know, the dentist has convention bluntly states that it is the responsibility of every state to stop and to try to avoid that con, i'm not, the only not to hold is real accountable as written as something but also the responsibility on every member state of the international community. thank you very much. professors dollar cox work for your perspective there. thank you very much. so that's the view here in rome, i love we speak to people in the agencies that are the palestinians were working with for an age groups as well. and they say the same thing, they no longer feel that the western powers, that the united states, that international energy always have a moral authority anymore to dictate what democracy looks like or what human rights should be. and unless these hearings you and condemnation, unless these things translates into something practical on the ground,
5:15 pm
to stop palestinians from dying on a daily basis. all of these hearings do for many palestinians here in the occupied westbank appear a little less than a hollow gestures. zane, beside the in ramallah saying thank you very much indeed. are still ahead on i'll just say the police improper and you can even tell the bodies of dozens of men killed in the latest type of violence. the hell i will say heavy rain, snow and some freezing rain full pots. so central china in particular to see this band of cloud here that's pushing across northern pause. that's why the cobra is in place is driving cold. normally when that cost many areas of northern china, then let me go to something a little more the, just around the central pa square the, to me we have got some very heavy right in place that just between behind and
5:16 pm
shanghai that so get interested a little further east with southern parts of japan, seeing some heavy down post because some localized flooding k as well. and you see how that rank comes back into central positive china to the north is that that's where we have that mix of snow and freezing right. and it is basically called minus one, the top 10 between badging then on tuesday. and one was it got one into when stand by way to stay. i think we're waiting for you make some of more expensive pushing it across north korea. it's in the past of japan, heavy rain, they're just central areas and see how tempted to get dropped a good time decreased by that stage. here's your shelves that are called south east asia, heavier shelves into indonesia, maybe showers long spells of right still causing problems across northern posit, focused on more than the areas of india, warranties in force if it's a system beside the east. the. the
