11:06 am
they're also report. so people who are critically injured, but the, the, the, you don't have, they are unable to leave the, as they do neighborhoods. and be taken to a hospital, it appears to be a renewed a tox happening in the noted part and gone to city. and $11.00 way to look at it is it feeds into the they've already planned, declared to plan, to read the military of establishing a buffer zone, a base and part of the city. but for the majority of people in the northern part, not only the have they are facing a found the right now, but they're being killed in what looks like for them. it's more of the genocide they'll act are taking place in almost the non stop a war ax happening in gaza and, and it's eastern neighborhoods. thanks so much so that honey, honey mac made for us there in rough lots of the killing of 29000 palestinians in
11:07 am
gaza. israel's l i the united states has called for a temporary cease fine quote. as soon as it is practical, a washington has drawn to the un security council resolution supporting a temporary truce. it's already announced it plans to veto the text presented by arab nations when the council votes later on tuesday of that draft colds for an immediate humanitarian, sweet spot, and rejects the fullest displacements of palestinians, america's resolution bones against as rouse plans, ground defensive and profit, saying it will fit the displace palestinians potentially into neighboring countries, such as egypt was from the un headquarters in new york. his eldest here as diplomatic. it is a james spice. important developments here at the united nations. we show the perhaps us policy towards gauze is beginning to change for weeks the u. s. has been opposed to a draft resolution for the security council proposed by algeria,
11:08 am
which was due to be put to the vote on choose day cooling for an immediate see spa . but now the last minute the us has proposed its own draft resolution and it mentions the words the spa, nothing to meet you, one, but what it says is a temporary spot in garza. as soon as practicable and this u. s. resolution also condemns the idea of a ground incursion by israel into rafa. it says that under the current circumstances such an incursion should not proceed the us deputy and best the robot would. so they decided to put forward the own proposal because they believed the out. jerry and one was not going to make things better on the ground. look, we're very concerned about the overall situation there. i mean, you know, it's getting worse every day and we're very concerned about it. and we want to do something that can impact what's going on on the ground. we just think the altering resolution isn't going to have that impact that we think is important. and that's why we're looking at other options to see what we can do from a practical standpoint to really make
11:09 am
a difference on the ground. so there are now 2 competing dropped resolutions. what's the view of the un secretary general? the secretary joe would like to see 1st of all on the ground is the humanitarian ceasefire. the immediate release of all uh, hostages, increasing humanitarian access. he would like to see the security council of speak with one voice on this issue which has been challenging the new us draft resolution also rejects the idea of reducing the size of gaza with the setting up of a buffer zone and condemns is right. the government ministers still cold, for the resettlement of gauze, was not clear, is how the rest of the security council of going to respond. more negotiation seemed likely. james pays out as the era of the united nations the
11:10 am
in the coming out of the you ins, highest court will resume the historic hearing since that the legality of israel's $56.00. you ok patients of palestinian land, the state to with the proceedings. $52.00 states and 3 international organizations are providing to so many at the international court of justice. and the height of lawyers representing palestine presented the case on monday. demanding an immediate into the is ready. oh ok. patient representatives from 11 countries from around the world will a paper for the course in the coming hours will sit. boston is joining us live from the hague, outside the international court of justice. and so can you just give us a rundown of what happens there on monday and what we can expect at the i c j today? well the 2nd day in this, lance mock, a court case here at the peace palace 11 countries will give their oral presentations here on the floor in the court to today. it's the biggest case ever
11:11 am
here at the international court of justice with more than 50 countries involved. and she said on monday, the palestinian a decide to kicked off the hearings, making a very strong argument saying that the occupation of each was 11 and the westberg is unlawful calling. it's a system of colonial apartheid. and the foreign minister fell aside. even said that the is for any governments, they didn't give them much choice, only 3 choices as well as displacement, subjugation, or death. let's have a listen. what's happened in court on monday, the palestinian delegation accompanied by international law experts travels to the u. n's, highest court in the hague, taking the 1st step towards de hope, stopping one of the world's longest employees occupations. for the 1st time in its
11:12 am
history, the international court of justice will have to load on the legality of israel's confiscation of ballasting in land. opening the oral hearings kind of thing and foreign minister described israel's occupation as a system of apartheid that has thrown palestinians into 2nd class citizens for over a century. the in telling me about right, understand people to send the termination has been denied and violated. but this time was not aligned without people, it was not as is their id, those have described it the way spent that was lot of on this time. the only solution consistent with international law, this for this illegal occupation to come to an immediate and conditional on total isn't as well captured, the west bank, gaza and easter was 11 in 1967 areas of historic palestine, which palestinians, one for
11:13 am
a state um to with map smoky show the courts how over the decades israel has confiscated ballasting inland is what i had wanted the, the jo gonna feel of body style. but the locked it still won't get a fee. so it's kept pushing the people out out of their homes, out the deadlines. here is a 5th month. so it was displayed by his rose pride, minnesota for the assembly. last september, he called this, then you me the least. this is no, there is no by this time on. on this map. bose right now a u. s. lawyer who has regularly august the case is at the i c. j sat. it's clear israel has no intention to ever leave the land to man. the evidence is overwhelming and leaves no room for serious dispute about israel's actions or its intentions. in 2004,
11:14 am
the court of firm the inalienable right of the palestinian people to self determination. in 2024. it is time for you to enables and finally, to exercise that right, this case is different to the one of genocide south africa filed. this one is brought by the un general assembly after passing a resolution with 8 to 7 votes in favor. to give an advisory opinion on as well as 57, he alone occupation. the hearings come at a time when the death, though, as far as military operation in gaza has the past 29000 last month. so you and highest court order. it's relative stopped. also time from genocidal x in gaza and other decisions i just poured. although non binding to stop the unlawful occupational specialist in line to carry morales or with no further increase international pressure on the government. benjamin netanyahu international legitimacy by countries is increasingly important in this intertwined world that we
11:15 am
live in. and you wind up putting an adjective like genocidal or an adjective like a legal occupation beside israel. it stains irreparably its own reputation and its bringing down the reputation of the united states, along with it. more than 50 countries will present submissions in the coming days, step fast, and l. g sierra, the he need to abraham is running us from in front of an illegal is riley settlements. and basically having the occupied westbank need as we have seen you, as you've been reporting on, extensively expansion has accelerated rapidly since october the 7th. the can you just give us an idea of the impact that is having and exactly what it looks like. of the tom, according to these really organization of peers. now they say that 2023 has probably been the best 0 for supplements expansion here in the occupied to us bank since that last little cause that was in the 19 ninety's when palestinians and israelis have met and gather than find that agreement that was supposed to lead
11:16 am
past is towards states with them. the issue of sacraments was one of those key issues that processing is kept the same time. and again that how can we negotiate the final status issues? why those sacraments are still being built? sometimes in the rear moments with israel has stopped the good sacraments building that they phases. this one, the southern ones we hug me that indeed is where is that a month of had her, my building did not stop there. what whatsoever. so palestinians, the palestinian authority has sometimes continued with those agreements even without supplement expansion. now let me show you what it looks like from the perspective of palestinians living here. as you can see, those are vast hills that were owned by palestinians and are owned by palestinian farming is here in bethlehem, but they would confiscated by these renew forces. and now we're seeing not only leaking is really supplements, but also ruins that serve them. we see is a really me the 3 jeeps you enjoyed it using the rude is that you're seeing now to
11:17 am
serve them. and also we're seeing building as we speak now. still happening in this, in the good is really supplements and for palestinians, they would tell you that one main goal of that sacrament that has been expanding and growing is to cut any potential continue to between bethlehem and occupied east jerusalem between the palestinians. there this is why published it is say that, but in all the occupation is to prevent any possibility for a future. continuous palestinian stays in the past and say that they're isolated in small communities at the same time as those is really supplements are increasing. and as you probably can hear the sound of the construction ongoing as we speak, and when we talk about such elements, we're not only fading to the land grabs, but also an important topic which is the secular attacks against palestinians. and we've seen just today. and last night, attacks by is really so close against palestinians and the villages of beautiful
11:18 am
need now. but as to the north of the occupied the spring as well as the engine, which is close to the mulanda center of the occupied west banquet. settlers go down, burn palestinian homes, attack and intimidates palestinians, so it's a whole system as far as well. so these are concerned that the able to take woodlands and prevent any potential future posting. is that okay, thanks so much and need a need to abraham, there and outside and illegal is rarely settlement. and basically you can just cross now to somebody to mila, who is joining us from johannesburg. and uh, as we mentioned, said, africa is presenting 1st at the i c j today. what are we expecting to hear from them as well? were expecting the tom so difficult to make very strong argument against the decades loan occupation of palestinian land by israel. this is a position till the africa is held since the throne of democracy in south africa in 1994 and very much linked to its own history of a par date and segregation. so that for those arguments will most likely be in line
11:19 am
with a $20.00 to 2022, amnesty international report that said that israel is committing crimes against palestinians through the mass of seizure of land. the disposition of homes and land of palestinians, the use and requirement of permits restricted movement of palestinians, the mother to the attention of palestinians including children of and the lack of equal status and rights. so that rico has had a very strong relationship with the palestinian liberation. movements of, again, based on south africa's own apartheid history. and we'll likely touch on the 2 international treaties that deal with a party and using back to the cold ford ends to the occupation of the lack of rights for palestinians. but here's a look at why. so that freak a has for decades supported the calls for a free palestine in 1948. so the africans, government of all white politicians,
11:20 am
legalized racism and segregation of non whites. a state policy. the africans word for the separation is a par date. in the same year, the state of israel was declared triggering the 1st arab is ready will zion estimate of 2 forces expelled at least $750000.00 palestinians from their homes and land gradually captured more than 70 percent of historic palestine over several decades. in 1994 of the use of state violence, oppression, and resistance, so that africa held its 1st negotiated democratic vote. so how can i go with them to your pocket icon, nelson mandela to president what he called his long to freedom had arrived? the palestinian land remained occupied. i promised you as i promise, but is it a m b k? that's how you would do it. all in my patience was. busy just thinking and to achieve that, please give aquatics. i don't forget how it would take you to pull the code for the
11:21 am
2 state solution along with the freedom of palestinians from is really occupation your have. what do you say to come to a similarity in south africa? i'm paula stands, both triplet colonialism for james. so that i think that you found that the international, we're off to somebody. this is came and saw him play the seller that a funeral and ending a part that we don't see the same with by this time. and i think part of that is in fact, that really made showing the way in which they fell as the new state was well, sort of built in to disenfranchise and gaza. since the i'm also talking each running october 7 and the resulting department getting close to $50000.00 palestinians. let's south africa to the international court of justice. choosing israel of genocide again last month, the quote in the hague issued provisional measures against as well sir, including the order to prevent acts of genocide at least. but it is really military operations extended into southern gaza. so that for the requested the court issue,
11:22 am
additional measures while judges know to that a potential new assault on the 1400000 people in rafa would listen to humanity or in knights may quote, the trying to issue additional measures in israel should comply with its existence, so not the business is resolved after the highest court in the land is made the pronunciation, this data is that i just with the legs of mind itself and the implement and comply with the court order. so that's because this is really, is in breach of the court orders and the international convention of genocide for me. the minute i'll just say what john is but us when we have a pedal of gets to take us through the proceedings and what is expected at the i c j in the coming alice, the a sponsor cuss joins us once again, a professor of transnational last month and collect the university. thank you very much. also joins by get in, libby, who is a political analyst and a contributor to the parents news by that. he joins us from television. gideon,
11:23 am
if i can begin with you, please. i mean, your intel, a vague how the hearings being viewed there. and i mean now that being completely ignored or totally dismissed or closely followed, surprise, surprise that totally, you know, like he's really, you know, so what's going on in, gosh, i know these are in the media if anything is read tool or you can read same same about what's going on in the hague, what their minds inconvenient to is right on. pleasant so is you can notice trust these reading media to high deeds from in some videos and read the sheet. and same happens now with that was the hearing in the 8. yes, today, or kind of internationally, both the insurance quotes broke us the hearing aid rides and 40 in is what i am not saying hold tv station. so they seemed going just big enough to broadcast it
11:24 am
and certainly use the coverage. so they are very a, for a very small one on the mining genes. you know, it's now it's our business. okay. but at least i can ask you about the, the international community's role here, 52 countries coming together to make presentations. how significant is that unity and putting pressure on as well? it's significant, 1st of all because we, it's unprecedented for the ice and j even to allow this huge number of countries and 3, in touch with innovations to take part in the proceedings. but it also shows that there is a unity in, in uh, in, in politics as well. mm hm. and it's clear that all these countries will not take major is at the parliamentary level. when uh, when they go back and wait, we hit from a number of lawyers on monday at the opening of the hearing. basically re is right that this is a stain on israel's reputation. but also on the united states. reputation is clear . i mean, not nothing, nothing that israel does is without the support united states and i think uh the to
11:25 am
say solution can only come from a support for me. yeah. and that's a, it's also, inc gideon in the past. uh, israel has, i guess, dismissed completely. i see j rulings and, and ignored them. do you think that that is what is going to happen here? and i'm afraid so, but it depends on the international community, waiting to end the only by a warning without any further measure said, brag, click on the stairs. so he's there and can easily, nowadays say, must remind you of that. a few years ago the international court for justice beside the. busy that the barrier between is running bus time this evening or using the mirror is not there anymore. it's they're kicking and, and they live insane would be, was the about died each, the one with an update branch, the 3rd major. but i must say, it is
11:26 am
a beginning to now. it's looked like you'd still be out in voltage. but let's see, is the world we'd be able to for the current ratio, single dimensions and warnings into x. that's the only question. then yahoo! and the last day i said in recent days, we've witnessed a new kind of international pressure and attempt to utilize re, unilaterally force us on us the establishment of a palestinian state that would endanger the existence of as ro. what do you make of that as possible? you can't blame it, this was the project of his life to do anything. forcible to prevent is not on any today and get back. but i see, is there any kind of wiggle she ations over any during the settlement, but don't know the other $5.00 to 0 position? most of them, no 3rd of them that are done at the gun and settings up did. they will be, i mean,
11:27 am
different by the end of the day, there is a big depressed majority is right, which rejects any kind of real but a stand state. it might be a dentist. uh, but the reason fiber, but a students they, it's almost a warrant of warning is a united in rejecting rejecting and therefore this whole, essentially the international community and areas we're expecting south africa to begin its presentation. and just so it's a half an hour's time. what are you expecting to hear from them? it's all gonna be different from what the police didn't inside said yesterday. so it's going to be, you know, i think that's what the other countries are going to do as well. they're going to do the spell out situation. the is really intention to unexcused is a for good uh and also to hide it on the carpet. is gideon. uh, it writes as well. mm hm. obviously, uh, anything coming out of the jazz known binding in this case,
11:28 am
how significant is that? every advisory opinion from the i, c, j has been streaming for venture. and so in what way, in, in the sense that it becomes a, uh, it, it becomes will effectively becomes policy. and so, and, and in many cases the i, c, j, it's rates. it's on advisory opinions as little. and countries usually take them into uh, if you're to them at the parliamentary level, me get in just changing tact a little here. there was a us resolution draft resolution at the united nations cooling for a temporary cease fire and no incursion, interrupt what, spitting the reaction the to that it is usually the toner days. and then, you know, it is so vague that is why i cannot say no, because it doesn't mean time day. but any decent any case, a temporary boss is really never rejected because it's not only negotiations,
11:29 am
say about the hostages. we talk also about the pools, but this will not bring to an end of the war. big. what we need though is a new voice to and before we just have voice mail it to come from, then it should have come from the united states because these would be $150.00 people say they would have expenses complaining about so many k and so cbs, united since quarter to and more, and then the next video rate that the state sent to transport so frequently shown in the weapon store as well. so, you know, it's about the united states for, besides the united states, what do you know? it was very clear the united states for this roar alias is that how you say it is, well that this is the 1st time that the united states is actually used. would say spot. pretty amazing that we are we using a single word to see a shift of policy?
11:30 am
that's definitely true. and it's also the reflection of, of the change in public opinion, the united states. okay. thank you so much. it is as well as a gideon for joining us here, a token through this important issue. well, moving on personnel is for cooling. it's invested in israel and the problem disputes about the war and gaza. on sunday president, president luis in the us, you let the silva said, israel is committing genocide and compared its actions to the holocaust. is routes is lula has crossed a red line. don't home and has more. but that's where am i to up? it was this comment from brazilian president we invest, you'll lose that syllabus known, but many simply is lula that started things off the question, what is happening in the gaza strip of the palestinian people has no power low in other historical moments. in fact, it did exist when hitler decided to kill the jews comparing israel's mass killing
11:31 am
of palestinians in gaza. so the whole, of course, drew an immediate reaction from ease rose, probably minnes stuff.
