5:33 am
associates have led to assuming black market one. 0, one east travels to cambodia, whistle blowers excludes electrical government involvement in smuggling monkey based on our to me it's an extremely cynical moments for international law. it's an extremely devastating moment for the palestinian people. the, there are rules under international law and no matter which way you look at this is realism, violation of those rules. as of the 7th of october, there's no one north of international humanity title that does no being violated by the name of the event. i never imagined that in my life i would see
5:34 am
a genocide taking place in real time before my eyes. the fact that it is being protected by most western government takes it to a level that i just never imagined. would it be possible the back of this area with a single list? you're not you're not alone. canada will be a friend of israel and to say, it's right, suiting it's right to exist. and he sort
5:35 am
of has the right to defend itself. in fact, it has put duty to defend this dig to use it by frontier id, so initially got screwed up to ship some 40 to for, for that false, put the name of the site. so do you have 4 digits of computers as your friend? i was down with you in solidarity to stand with your people. and we also want you to if one looks at all political leaders today and all of our mainstream politicians, they are the most mendacious, the most mediocre, the least talented group of politicians that i can remember during my almost 60 years on this s, as it is astonishing, just how deeply corrupt materially, morally they are. because many of them being through donations to their political parties, their motions, to them passively donations to their organizations,
5:36 am
like the labor of friends of israel, the conservative friends of israel, the democratic friends of israel, the republican friends of israel, and the multiple in myriad other organizations like that, they provide an extremely good living for that to pass. and for those political parties. thank you for having me and i'm looking forward to having a thorough discussion about where everybody goes from here every day. in the depth and breadth of cooperation, the west is intimately involved and israel's genocidal campaign. in garza, for months we have seen us officials a firm time and again that there are no red lines for israel using exactly that language. when of course, we know that international law draws many red lines, and yet the us has come out and stark opposition. granting israel full authority to proceed and to create as much death and destruction as it sees fit. the
5:37 am
shocked by the last old auction of the international community. i'm shocked by the hands raised by the us unbox furthering the security council. voting against s a saw your between that says fire. i'm shocked by the lack of action of principal stage. we need to take, again, our principles, concrete, stand against this of duration, and start thinking of functions. the, what we've seen is the laws of war are used in get and weaker parties. but if your ally is the united states, and if you are, ally can veto any security council resolution. and if your allies are the european states,
5:38 am
then the chances that the i c c will bring you to justice are very, very slim. the international court of justice is a court that render is guilty. the losers in the conflict is a court of the victories and the court that has double standards for the allies of the powerful and for those that it thinks of as it's and that means the views itself, that's it to submission to the international court of justice is some sort of anti semitic screed. i'm black libel. this is nonsense that you couldn't make up the nonsense that is being a non ca, to constantly, not just by the israelis, but that is imperative by the us government, the u. k. government,
5:39 am
the german government, the french government, etc. and this is being done to defend the indefensible, to defend the slaughter of tens of thousands of innocent civilians to defend the tax on health facilities on residential homes and places of worship and places of work. we're seeing a genocide taking place in gaza. well, choose matters to where it is. you're going to have to choose an area to see who's got in trouble for him. it's true. you don't have to be jewish to be a scientist. a don't have to be to, to be a scientist. it's thing to naturalist community and it's powerful member states life, particularly to the us. but in general western countries,
5:40 am
which is still pilot, indeed savvy than individual power, that some member states can exercise within the when the feet of those member states are from the west. it does or something. no african countries has a veto power in the united nation system. it's the and star system, which is not only representative of where the world is today. but i would like to see this change, and we need to think of better mechanisms not only inside the law, but how the lie is applied to ensure that there is no double standards. so it's both a changing of the laws to so that they address the current circumstances, but also the institutions of the judicial institutions that apply the law. so they, they don't apply it with double standards and we will continue to actively
5:41 am
engage in the hard work of direct diplomacy on the ground until we reach a final solution to. ready the destruction of over 70 percent of cause of the killing of over $30000.00 palestinians, including $13000.00, posted in babies and children, the injuring of around now $70000.00 palestinians. and the destruction of almost all of the civilian infrastructure in gaza. international law prohibits this completely. we have to remind the but there are at least in theory rules which is real, must abide by and which is violating the,
5:42 am
the, is doing anything they can in order to minimize the cause of it is when it targets the, the military targets. but again, we are in a war in a war civilians. gus harris, he will never see the i is the target. shoot down as severely and you will never see a group of children walking on the beach of guys that is way target them specifically or an old lady crossing the street and isn't still the old lady is what it does not target civilians. as the jo, a foil, and the difference in the house of a memo, nothing will get into the loan of wilma to another
5:43 am
for lunch on the box is where the target military target is, where the target paris and when this terrorist surrounds himself with cecilia is with this little children, with this old lady with this all the paypal of this city williams, my gift card. but it's not on the fault of israel. it's on the fault of the one who surrounded himself with a civilian as the one that to use them as human shields. the argument of the human shoes of palestinians in general, and being a eager to sacrifice their own children as human, she'd just been. ready and this nice over and over the 1st one to this nice. this
5:44 am
argument was editor of gold stone. that the head of the 1st commission of inquiry over the 1st war in gaza. and it has been disproven over and over. what is the evidence, the israel's instruction to the palestinians 1st to move south and then to move west and then to move north. but basically that instruction which has displaced $1800000.00 people tells the is re lease that any civilians that remains in that area or us. israel assumes that any civilian that remains at the, in that area is either a participant in hostilities and therefore it can be killed or
5:45 am
a human shield. namely someone that is being used to shield the legitimate military target. and that allows israel to relax, the repertoire is of least lethal violence that they use is against these people. and in the court of law, that can be used to justify the wholesale killing of civilians. when the uh, the is where it says more than even its inquired 8 drops flyers. uh over guys uh to tell the people to vacate the area. it makes phone calls to residential um, civilians to vacant. the area is why i called to back in the area once. if i took
5:46 am
these precautions, it's allowed to take them to build the east civilians for sure. so say they take the their own responsibility the . this is a complete distortion of international law. if you consider also the fact that israel's and occupier, which i think is the relevance legal framing here is real, has obligations under occupation law. not only to end the occupation, which has now been ongoing for 56 years, but also to protect the occupied people. and we also know that israel has no right
5:47 am
to claim self defense in accordance with the article, $51.00 of the un charter with respect to attacks emanating from the territory that it occupies. and this notion was upheld by the international court of justice. and it's 2004 ruling on the legality of the wall. and so regardless of which way you look at this, there's absolutely no legal defense to committing a genocide the luxury living soul is not as have such a month and muscle in mind and daily. so he is on
5:48 am
the we have the president of the state saying there's no innocent civilian or there's no on involved civilian in the gaza strip. so these kind of remarks to point that the intent and the if, if it gets to a court of law, then these kinds of remarks become very important in terms of the genocide dual aspect of this war. and lot of people in israel, we not food bad for the potters, phineas, but yet the leadership in israel fails for the palestinian people. and they allow whatever the minimal humanitarian ad to be provided to the population in gaza at the
5:49 am
the, the law does create a vision of a certain kind of justice that we want to aspire for. we want to aspire towards a world where human rights for all are protected. the amends scale of suffering. any god there must be an immediate cease fire or at least the next which is what is currently on the table.
5:50 am
does human rights law give us the tools to achieve human rights? i'm not sure because of the interest of powerful states because of the double standards that are applied in the international arena. and therefore, if it gets to court, often the human rights do not win the day. and so we need to think of other mechanisms to achieve these human rights. the problem is the problem is with the force, mental potential and in, in the middle east. and in the global south, i would say the problem is that law is closer to political
5:51 am
convenience then to justice. it was that you will be in, i'm very sorry to say 500 years of core. oh, nice ation. has left a huge in print, you know, or is dna. in general, western people are not able to assess objectively, what is what is being done the through the not publication or the international law or through the discretionary application of international law. this is terrible to see the dismantlement of international order premier support international piece by piece the image will have to she will be minus 3 by then. i mean by the, for them to die. penn national to the believe been what's to be the whole industrial method by mama to me computer level. i'm updates more than
5:52 am
a c by then. sure enough, when we left him odd monday, it's a whole lot. you go, come as much as you've got the, it's unclear what absol victory will look like when you've destroyed already 70 percent of gaza when the overwhelming majority cost of $2000000.00 palestinians are displaced. it seems to me that absolute victory means the total destination of gaza to the point that is completely uninhabitable and the, the population of gaza, which israel has told us time. and again in this current moment that that is their goal. but their goal is that the population of gaza and the settlement of goes up by is rarely settler's course in total violation of international law. the . 6 does not reach the international law, is right l. capes safety. there, there is safety or the rules of law according to the international law. why
5:53 am
a country should be above scrutiny. i mean, no one should be the international law is there to be applied universally and not just for cherry picking because this, this trust phones as i often say, human rights protection into protectionism. and this is unacceptable. the for me, the, the idea that the law will lead to liberation or emancipation, or palestinian self determination, is a fiction of human rights is not necessarily the tool. i think the tool needs to be more political in the sense of divestment and the sense of the sanctions in the sense of boycotts to use this kind of arsenal of non
5:54 am
violent weapons to pressure israel to bring about change the israel about 12 years ago. realized having been so close to a pottage south africa, the very real threat that b b s posed to the existence of these really state as a racist, occupying state. and they created a ministerial department called the department for strategic affairs. specifically to come to the b ds movement and what was the strategy that they hit upon? it was to ensure that any criticism of israel, any criticism of its occupation, any criticism of its behavior in the occupied territories was made equivalent to
5:55 am
anti semitism to. and they have been remarkably successful at doing that. there is no other argument that they're not using as of to send me these massages to deflect the attention from what matters the most from what our analysis insist upon for decades now. i'm not surprised at each rather recurs to any strategies to can to a whole it's goals to reach its objectives. but i'm surprised that international communities joins this action. because today you are not just attacked by israel for being and it's on to submitted. if you just ask for the application of international law, do we, is there any, is there any options? it's many, many western countries to do so and they betray also what i'm to summit isn't as really being the search advantage. semitism is united states of america and around the world. sick, you know,
5:56 am
we see it across our communities and schools and colleges and social media, a surface painful scars for millennia. so hate of hate to genocides of jewish people. every time i get, i choose to falsely accused of onto the same it is i respond. i don't stake white, i don't get intimidated. i become louder and louder. and by doing so, i think i also inspire other people to do the same. i'm jewish. my mother was one of 20 odd survivors of the holocaust. so to describe me is empty semitic given my history of anti racism and my work on genocide prevention. my info, king of the holocaust of which my mother's family was victims and it's simply an absurdity. no. c western world
5:57 am
is prepared to sacrifice the entire architecture of international law that has been put in place post world war 2, specifically to prevent their being and not the genocide like the holocaust. we have prepared to rent all of that asunder so that israel can continue to med uh, $247.00 palestinians on an average day. 48 of whom will be women. and a $117.00 of whom will be children. were prepared to throw it all out. that's the point of crisis that our politics act now. and it is up to all of us who recognize that to actually create, to count a narrative, to the nonsense that dispute by our politicians, to maintain their own place. in this a pulling leap, corrupt a malfunctioning political system, we have the we continue every single day to wake up and
5:58 am
insist on freedom and life in the face of genocide. and there's simply nothing more dignified that anybody can do in such a hopeless and desperate moment. i don't believe it's going to be sustainable to continue to prevent palestinians from their right to freedom. the
