[000:00:00;00] the, the special genocide on the intent is the router in the belief that in fact the enemy is not just the media type of weighting of how much is embedded in the properties of public opinion. lives in south africa says israel's war and gaza is being waged with genocidal intent as it calls on the international part of justice for an immediate cease fire and emotion backed by more than 30 countries. there is no basis for acquisitions of genocide against against israel. that's not a word that ought to be thrown around like this by international backend for the

call to end of the gods of bloodshed. washington denounces south africa's i. c. j lawsuits, as based in the radian navy confirms the seizure of an oil tanker that was previously confiscated by us authorities or was a violation of the sanctions on iraq. the i'm rachel ruble live in moscow. you're watching archie international on day one of the hearings at the hague, south african lawyers accused, as well as openly stating a policy of genocidal intent against the palestinians in gaza. which idea of troops are allegedly carrying out? it is a special genocide. our intent is the router in the belief that in fact the enemy. this is not just the minutes of waiting call from us, or indeed how most turn that on file is embedded in the fabrics of public opinion

life in cause. this intent is evident from israel conduct in specially targeting palestinians living and gaza using weaponry that causes large scale, homicidal destruction, designating save stones, for palestinians to seek refuge and then bombing beans. the dispute had crystallized as a metal bureau. this was consumed by his rogues, official, and unequivocal denial on 6th december that it was committing genocide in gauze, despite the adoption of the conventions, to prevent and punish the crimes of 10 aside, the atrocities continue and the international community. according to the minister as failed to translate the goals of the off of the previous and into the odyssey. and we know that the responsibility to protect the foods on states. and those are some of the states that have acted a bit concerned and made it seem like the well worried about the children and the

people in the guys and some of those states that the u. s. and the u. k. a lot of people say it's quite a lot of people and when they try to so some sort of empathy and sympathy towards participating and then posting and children. and a lot of people say those are always the crocodile tears. and as of the longer the will continue, the, the more children and people in guests us continue to stuff up, but overall, so that's a good really, really all you just how did before the international court of justice today. many for this thing and representative and people a so the a gratitude towards that africa, that's something more on that south africa. the proactive steps on behalf of humanity to protect the palestinian people and ensure that the genocide convention and international law do not become completely irrelevant. which is

a prospect that must specify all of us. this is a case of death, could also find that the empower the genocide convention and is a very significant one for international community to be in go to showcase its usefulness and to prove that it's not really or rather me a playground for the waste with the ways to have now, so it's discontent. that's ever listen to this. watching african women and men fighting to save humanity and the international legal system against the roof list attacks, supported end enabled by most of the west, will remain one of the defining images of our time. this will make history, whatever happens. a lot of people are speculating kind fee and trying to make sense of what it is. so we'll say it's defense tomorrow, but to no one really knows for sure. so we wait to see what each valve will bring to the table tomorrow. israel's foreign ministry released a strongly worded statement after the hearing and the hagen,

which the cues south africa of functioning as legal arm of hamas in south africa, which is functioning as the legal arm of the how much terrorist organization isolated schools. the reality and goals are following the story was 72 months ago and completely ignored the facts. that's how much terrace infiltrated israel motor execute his musket rapes and abducted as regular citizens, simply because they was raised in an attempt to carry out genocide. we do not have any monday from, from us, our monday to is from the south african government. and in our case, also is not, did they choose as a people, our case is like this, the actions of the state of is that i the actions of general sites that are committed and goes up. but we spoke to the south african minister of justice, right? after the 1st day in court ended, he told us the ongoing lawsuit regarding is really actions in gaza is a chance for the international court of justice. not to repeat the mistake it made with the genocide in rwanda. it is important to give, to quote, a noble choose not to,

to go ahead because desirable then genocide into the one to unfold when. so the goal is going through a tennessee agent, and there was no to intervene with this quote cuz we're giving the opportunity to quote the highest body of the n. oh, good. that is entrusted with the preventing, generously to make a finding that hulu based on facts and the load that were presented in the global community. we're a better place to know and understand what it means. and the history of discrimination. violence disposition is almost akin to what is kind of unfolding in the does all of those. would it be a way of the founding president? one of the 1st conversations that d, a pendant disagree to own and maintaining to 8 was the genocide convention. so was

standing on the shore to offer jane to stand on principle, to set the rights to life for the palestinian police. you cause for the children to go to school to leave a normal life for the children to access health care, the elders, the palestinian population to be able to leave like in a person all over the world. so this is about 2 minutes. meanwhile, israel a prime minister benjamin netanyahu reacted to south africa's allegations, claiming it is the idea that holds the moral high ground by taking every care not to harm civilians. the terrorist organization carried out the worst crime against the jewish people since the holocaust. and now someone comes to defend it in the name of holocaust. what brazen go the world is upside down. the idea of the most

moral army in the world, which does everything to avoid harmony, not incompetence, stands accused by the representatives of these monsters of genocide, south africa's heap of proceed screams to the high heavens. i'm not surprised about the retreat that i'm going to send it to now who is a 3 and also gather with the usual accusation of anti semitism to this bill. change of the actual messaging, we would, we call, they told that even the signature of state lincoln from the united states of america also suddenly today, a said that they think that the death toll of civilians are to refine. these were concerns that were not sick. a few weeks ago, support when they want to continue is bombing and keep of the palestinians in gaza . but because of the court case because of the application southerly, we see a tone down of the bondo. that was that of these i, li,

officials. and of course of the united states. so for ships the south african lawyers have also put a spotlight on remarks made by the as rarely prime minister and his illusions to the hebrew bible in their arguments before the i. c. j minister. now in his address to the is riley forces one point 8 october 10th, between the city. preparing for the invasion of cause, adds to the soldiers. to remember what i look has done to you. this refers to the people to call come on to buy guards to solve for the retard you to the destruction of an entire group of people known as the mother kites boats to death, men and women, childrens and in friends, turkey and ship k mails and donkeys that's in a 5 dot info case. it was the same, but i do it was the puter it's probably missed. did not tell you all in

a laptop to this is ryan armed forces on thursday, november 2023. but i'm president. that's a prime minister. as well speak for themselves, cooler on the entire people and the leadership of the people embraced them and believing them. remember what on the look did to you. we remember and we fight well ahead of the hearing at the hey, israel's prime minister tone down his rhetoric on does a netanyahu refuted his previous suggestions that the palestinian enclave would be controlled by the idea after the war. as well as no intention of permanently occupying garza or displacing its civilian population as well as funding come us terrace, not the palestinian population, and we are doing so in full compliance with the international law. the adf is doing its utmost to minimize civilian casualties. while how mazda is doing its utmost to

maximize them by using palestinian civilians as human shields, our goal is to red garza of commerce terrace and free or hostages. once this is achieved, guys, it can be demilitarize in d radicalize. thereby creating a possibility for a better future for israel and palestinians alike. prime minister netanyahu, uh, understood that uh the case would be before the international court of justice could have the serious consequences for ease row. because even if the case is not enforceable, even as being junction that the called the may issue of calling going these road to effect a ceasefire will be eventually veto the in the security council. it won't be a public relations disaster for israel. so all of a sudden he understood that he is

a political maneuvers of full domestic audiences have. so i mean the national low cost and belatedly, now of course it still like he tone down his statements regarding the occupation of gods and other calls and such as a destroying aleck, which is of course, it'd be really cool reference to an ancient enemy of the jewish people, a large crowd gathered outside the building of the hague chord, where the hearing is taking place. demonstrators are calling for the end of genocide against palestine and for a boy cock of israel. so pro palestinian activists were also seen gathering ahead of the hearing in south africa, which initiated the loss to tell us citizens in the west bank also gathered on wednesday at nelson mandela square in ramallah to express their gratitude to south

africa for filing the lawsuit against israel we spoke to the grand daughter of nelson mandela and they sent me the key lehmann della foundation founder and the like. amend della. she says it's up to both the international community and individual states to promote humanity and mitigate crises. we have started to be able to, to, to intervene because the re, i base case, best case study, the best practice of what, how do i work? i'm chris, what i'm expecting is for the 6 for you, you know, why they make decisions. they come up with the add to it to and for that was, this is what you to setup, you know, to, to, to 3, to use it, you know, a e diplomacy in terms of, you know, recording says via to, to mitigate, to 2, to 6, to a should people, that's how we're going to reach and then we can do solution back to what just

because set up nation. ok. so it's a lot because yeah, pointing them out to see that suiting to do what you have set up to do as creating towards it. and you know, we need to catch that to manage it, you know, because, know, samantha, you can see all that is correct. you forget what actually said, no, she meant being is one hate to we. i taught straight the district so which means it was up to me that these really didn't have a key. we up board with the 2nd humanity and that's the only one that's to manage. it says, oh, that's really atrocities i piece of the people taking. it is a color to finish it to them, and they connect to the energy of a lot of people that to get closer to the energy to say that this is a positive outcome. but you want it's funny then that you will see change the kind of just the, the you in a test look to be too hard for me to imagine the is really government's devastating assault on gaza. has sparked increasing criticism not only worldwide,

but also on the home front. more than $600.00 is rarely as have signed a petition in support of the lawsuit, south africa as filed at the hague. although the signatories are not legal experts, they stay their position on and then the war is based on evidence they see or receive from sources in gaza. we spoke to johnson pollock, who has signed the petition. he says is within the power of the i, c j, and other states to punish israel for his crimes. the discourse within is ready, society is a soldier and a cycle. and there is absolutely no prosecution, but also genocide of discourse and no, no richard, no reprimand to the to genocide to discourse. it also represents, it least in the very least large elements within days of the army. and we have seen videos of if any soldiers talking about the proper way to handle gaza and the punishment that must be,

that governance must be met with. what i expect of the court is to forward there is that to stop doing governance, to stop the aggression on the people gather the sold them, does a has to stop and have to stop now. and if the you and cannot do that, the you in and it is and cannot do that. then really what is the point of to you? and if it is only 2 to us, 13 the power of the strong and not defend those who need defending each. and every country can commit to sanctions, to boycotts to this event, to def. investments can apply by laughter of means of pressure on it. for this, there's the time is no, there's no time to wait while as the 1st day is herring's at the international court of justice, wrap up,

the u. s. department of state maintains that south africa was allegations of genocidal in tens are unfounded. the allegation that israel is committing genocide are on founded. in fact it is those square violently attacked and israel, who continued to openly call for the elation of israel and the mass murder of jews . as far as us officials are concerned, the proceedings that are taking place are on the found it, they consider them to be illegitimate. so they are referring to the fact that they consider israel to simply be defending itself. israel's enemy is a mosse which seeks to destroy them, not the palestinian people here assembled. what we heard from john kirby. and we have said repeatedly that we believe that these allegations this case is unfounded . and that there is no basis for mackey's actions of genocide against against israel. that's not a word that ought to be thrown around lightly, and we certainly don't believe that it applies here. well, across the country. there has been an upsurge of protests in support of the

palestinians. video is circulated of the dallas city council in texas being disrupted by very big protest, the members of the community that are speaking out in support of the palestinians. recently, the san francisco city board of supervisors passed a resolution to support the palestinians, as well as to condemn the actions by a mazda on october 7th. then there has been a big upsurge of support to the palestinians among the american public in particular among joe, by his own tardy, where many among the democratic party states simply do not approve of the white houses action standing behind israel as it continues its bombard the is rarely bombardment of guys is taking a terrible toll on civilians, aid workers, and medical personnel. that's according to the world health organization. as it sounds, the alarm that as well as creating insurmountable challenges for humanitarian missions in the on place. the level of clean water and sanitation and overcrowded

living conditions are creating the ideal environment for this is to spread, delivering you money to, to, and aid in guys that continues to phase nearly inside of mount china and just the intern school environment restrictions on movement fuel shortage and interrupted communications, make it impossible for w, jo and our partners to reach those in need. all the talks that we hear that the israel is helping to the people is trying to do its best to not target people. these are many where it's but we have not seen these words being actionable on the ground, the convoys, they say that so they so easily that through it is up to the international organizations to do all the necessary. we have not seen these actions on the ground, so we hear a lot of words, but we're missing the action, or the implementable action on the ground. the people are not protected on the way

to the sites, so as people are not protected in the safe sounds, the water is not being restored as not being able to be brought in people up begging for what the ambulances are as this horrific incident shows. not safe, the, even by transporting wounded, the hospitals are not safe, no matter what is on the ground, there should be supposedly on the ground. hospitals has to be safe, con wise, cannot get in, and not enough fate is getting in. and then the con wise cannot get further up more so we have to cancel 6 missions, 7 actually including yesterday to go further up north from, from rough up to supply the few partially functioning hospitals with any equipment . so diseases can spread easily or kill those who are already weak. so color, uh, um it has not gets that taken place. it goes color, i need to tell you, but of course, a tooth, walter, we diarrhea which is just as bad as lacking. the bacteria is ramping and dogs are

right now. skin infections, rushes um, all types of other infections, a multiplying respiratory infection, so long infections. um 20 folds the level we normally have in november. uh that, um that's only what b c reported because the lab right, sorry, so not functioning. there's no way to test any samples to collect samples then to test. so the whole package, everything is basically destroyed at a dysfunctional. so the usa department is furious over iran. seizure of an oil tanker off the coast of a mon calling to move a menace to the global economy and demanding the release of the vessel. the iranian government must immediately release the ship and its crew. this unlawful seizure of a commercial vessel is just the latest behavior by iran, or enabled by iran, aimed at disrupting international commerce. we believe this kind of action will

simply add uncertainty for commercial shipping and for regional and global economies. earlier they ran in armies press office confirmed its naval forces seized an oil tanker close to the city of so hard. they report the vessel is now heading toward the uranium post. the military news release says is seized and american tanker in retaliation of this oil tanker renamed the saint nicholas is carrying oil in the sea of oman. it was seized by court order this morning and approved by the ports and shipping organization of the strategic navy of this law. mac republic could be wrong in retaliation for the oil tanker seized by the american regime and is currently being transferred to islamic republic. ports for delivery to the judicial authorities. this trip was carrying a rocky oil in the port. city of mass strawn was balance for addie of a port in western char key when it was attacked and seized by unknown clothes, unknown harm demand, the impounded oil tank. it was once known as the so as well drawn and was

previously involved in a year long dispute over the shipment of a warranty and crude oil. the united states department of justice finally ordered this seizure and unloading of 1000000 barrels of a warranty, included oil contained in this vessel, and this cargo was transferred to another oil tanker off the coast of texas, located in the gulf of mexico, mexico. we did ask the iranian foreign ministry for an interview, but they refused to comment. however, yvonne's national television has confirmed the confiscation. it was, may be said that the tanker was seized by the country's naval forces following a court order and uh upon the approval of the ports and shipping organization in retaliation to quote, staff of oil by the american government. the navy said that the seas vessel is now being transferred to the ports of these womic republic of iran for delivery to

judicial authorities. of course, we will update you about more details as soon as we get more information from the you're wanting authorities. all right, let's discuss this further now with the radio host and the political commentator, steve gill, this dave, i'd like to hear your reaction to this a rainy and seizure of the tanker as well. you know, we've seen hundreds of attacks from the rainy and proxies, whether it's the missile striking into u. s. military installations, north east of israel, whether it's the who do use the work firing missiles and drones drives on commercial vessels and military vessel. all of this, the proxies of a ran who are acting this today, is it ran, acting directly to confiscate an oil tanker and turn it around and turn it back to iran. there now stepping in directly. i was listening to a military commentator earlier today who was saying that the us responses as feckless and meager as they have been that the radians are not getting the message

. and i would argue they are exactly getting the message that to us is not doing anything, is not stepping up to make them pay a price for their ratcheting up the potential violence. and that is the least. and unless the united states starts stepping up, the response isn't a ride, is going to get the message that they can do what they want. and there's not going to be in the repercussions from the us or from the world powers as well. yeah, despite the uses, lack of a response, at least so far, the us is furious over the move uh what could be the potential consequences of this incident for, for to ron and the wider region as well. the united states could start in sourcing the sanctions that are already in place. so mean, keep in mind that the, the us as sanctions that are limiting iran's export of oil. so i think it's about 6000000000 a year. they've been doing 60000000000, which is following the costs that they need. the support has the lot of boss and, and the hudy's and others. americans are funding the attacks that arrived as long as you get around the world because divided ministration refused,

is to actually enforce the sanctions that are supposedly in place. i think i could step back fully shutting down the runs the ability to expert oil. that again, this is going to antagonize china, which many believe are actually the puppet strings that are attached to job i. you, you don't want to antagonize china because that's where these oil resources are headed for the most part. but it's time for the united states under the by just to ministration to step up or we're going to see worse and more of what we saw with this tanker being taken today. the state of washington describes the caesar as a menace. but a year ago it sees the same ship and it's crude oil. oh, can you talk to us about the difference between these 2 incidents? well i did it wrong, has been under sanctions do for bid them from from x 40 oil in excess of, of i think was 6 $1000000000.00. so when they are violating the rules that have been put in place, the, the oil that they have on ships is illegal and illegally being transported. so

there is a, a world court and a world, a reason to stop what they're doing. this has no motivation whatsoever other than the fact that they believe they can respond and know that the united states under the feckless joe biden is not going to do anything. and with respect to the who's firing missiles and drones strikes and rockets into the commercial shipping areas, one of those rockets gets fired of united states and our allies in the region have plenty of satellites that can tell exactly when and where it gets fired when it's fired, and there's no reason that some cruise missile isn't shut uh, shutting down that operation as soon as they fire anything that a cruise missile hits and, and for a several 100 mile radius of where that missile was fired from. it's no longer there. a few of those kinds of strikes would stop the hudy's for doing what they're doing into the rebels have fired their largest barrage of drones and missiles targeting vessels in the red sea. forcing the us. and you can navies into a major naval and gauge meant,

why do you think american military facilities in the middle east have come under increasing attacks recently? because there's no response, no significant response to the united states. and uh, as long as we respond with, with no response, there is no reason for them to stop again, the do these kinda are shooting fish in a barrel in this shipping area, and it's already having an impact. you're seeing a lot of shipping of, of goods from, from europe for example, having to take the long track around the horn of africa to get to india, to get to asia rather than shipping through the suez canal and getting there more directly. so the who these are having an economic impact uh the radians by taking this tank or are anticipating that they will have an impact on oil prices, which again, slows world economy certainly hurts the u. s. economy in europe's economy. they are doing this on purpose because they know it will work and it will keep working until the us put the stop to it. all right, radio hosting, political commentator,

steve gail, steve, thank you. thank you. well, defense system is it shut down an arm to drown over airball airport and iraq's northern semi autonomy. this region where us and other international forces are stations. an umbrella group of a ron aligned, a rocky malicious called the atlantic resistance has claimed responsibility for the drone attack over the us base that airball airport. there is no information currently available about casualties, ends damage us. officials have reported more than 100 attacks against us, interested in a rock in serious since mid october. the rocky prime minister has called for a quick and orderly negotiated exit of us led military forces from it. so l, but has not set a deadline. he says the us presence is the stabilizing the region. we always repeat this. we need to push a rock away from regional and international conflicts. this is not only for the benefit of a rockies, but for the region in the entire world. meanwhile, former us defense secretary mark s for recently confirmed washington has no plans

to withdraw its troops from iraq. the policy has not changed. we are not leaving iraq and a draft on sign letter does not constitute a policy change, and there is no sign letter to the best of my knowledge. i've asked the question. meanwhile, tensions continue to rise between the us and who's the rebels and the region. as the leader of the of many rebel group says, it is mobilizing forces across the areas that controls as follows. one of the largest to the attacks on red sea shipping. when the u. s. navy shot down 21 has the muscles and rounds launched from yemen. un security council pass the resolution demanding in the media and to the who the attacks are the revel say they will continue to target israel. a link to ships in the germany armed forces will continue to prevent ease, really ships or those heading to the ports of occupied palestine for navigating into array bmw and red seas until the aggression stops. and the siege on our
