this is the definitely news life from building south africa accuses days while of genocide against palestinians at the united nations topicals as well dismissed the navigation accusing south africa as collaborating with some us. this comes as an intensifying hit and ground defensive on jobs is driving desperate families further south, but north of homes was also coming up condemnation of process. widest attacks on the crime rocketed cities across the country, giving at least 30 faithful and entering more than a 100. keith calls it via cell 5 months ago. seems think the only dies of the for nearly 2 d's. plus a deep dive into belgium's comic strips they pulled. it takes the plunge into a unique, underwater expedition, and brush poured. it takes the plunge into a unique, underwater expedition and process the american handbook into the program. and south africa has filed the case against israel at the international court of justice saying the actions that the as rarely um, forces against palestinians in gaza have a quote genocidal character. it's also cooling on the court to order israel to stop it's attacks. internati

and in this case genocide. indeed, well uh, danny, the icj is overseen by the united nations, and both israel and south africa are part of the un, do you think that the... icj will really initiate a case against the israelis? the icj, unfortunately in this case is really paper law with no teeth, in order to enforce this, i think it's clear to the world um that what israel with full us and western backing has been carrying out since 1948 does amount to a genocidal campaign of displacement, humiliation and ethnic cleansing. now culminating in this 85 days, 86 days of horrific violence against 2.3 and because of the censorship and the outright fascism that exists here, the us public has bought into this genocidal campaign of violence against the native palestinian people, but more and more people are pushing back, particularly youth, there's more and more studies and polls coming out from the new york times and from different universities showing that biden's popularity is decreasing by the day, most poles now have... trump as the uh leader in for president next year, so uh things are definitely in flux here and

racism and in this case genocide indeed, well danny, the icj is overseen by the united nations, and both israel and south africa are part of the un, do you think that the icj will really initiate a case against the israelis? the icj unfortunately in this case is really paper law with no teeth and to enforce this, i think it's clear to the world um that what israel with full us and western backing has been carrying out since 1948, does amount to a genocidal campaign of displacement, humiliation and ethnic cleansing against the native palestinian people, i don't think that's much of debate, now culminating in this 85 days, 86 days of horrific violence against 2. 3 million civilians, but for the israeli war machine and for the biden cabinet, there are no palestinian civilians, everybody is guilty, everybody is hamas. they've intentionally overinflated uh the capacity of hamas to inflict damage on the occupying israeli power uh wherever we go in the united states now there's billboard saying that hamas is our problem too, so this is an informational war and because of the censorship and the outright fascism that ex
