Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News

The International Court of Justice (ICJ) began hearings into Israel's genocide against Palestinians in Gaza and the Occupied Palestinian Territories (OPT). The ICJ, which sits in The Hague and is the UN's top court, is expected to hear from 40 States and four international organizations in proceedings slated to last all week. Link: www.icj-cij.org

The head of OCHA testified: "Today people are not surviving in Gaza, those that aren't being killed with bombs and bullets are slowly dying." Charges against Israel for apartheid were previously filed against Israel at the ICJ.

An international arrest warrant issued by the ICC remains active for PM Benjamin Netanyahu for war crimes. An indictment is merely an accusation. All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

Israel has killed over 50,000 Palestinians (including over 14,500 children) and injured or maimed more than 100,000 victims since Oct 2023. Palestinian children have not only lost limbs to IDF bombs, but parents, creating thousands of orphans. The IDF blockade of Gaza has reached 60 days and will kill more Palestinians from starvation, disease, and internal violence as people fight each other for bare sustenance. Meanwhile in the US, kapos Bill Maher and Joe Rogaine will continue making a fortune propagating distracting messages to the American public on behalf of the status quo.

"A US official addressing the International Court of Justice (ICJ) defended Israel's attacks on United Nations agencies in Gaza as potentially lawful."

Look at the expression on the faces of the State Dept personnel at the Hague pathetically defending Israel and genocide: www.middleeasteye.net

That's attorney Joshua Simmons looking mortified on the left (Bio: https://www.state.gov/biographies/joshua-simmons/). The other State Dept lawyer on the right can't even look at the photographer.

American Muslims voted to punish Biden and Harris.
By electing the guy who says Palestine doesn't exist and bibi isn't tough enough on them.
They should be so proud.

#4: American Muslims make up 1.3% of the US population at between 2.1m to 3.7m people (and not all of them are of voting age). 21% of them voted for Trumpf; 20% voted for Kamala Harris; 59% voted for Jill Stein. 25% of the Arab-American population is of Lebanese descent, a country Israel destroyed last year. Scapegoating this razor-thin minority is Islamophobic and a distraction from ethnic cleansing in Israel. And Chuck Schumer must go.
