       World court considers two specific questions
       The General Assembly submitted two specific questions to the
       world court in its December 2022 request:
       --- Quote ---
       > “What are the legal consequences arising from the ongoing
       violation by Israel of the right of the Palestinian people to
       self-determination, from its prolonged occupation, settlement
       and annexation of the Palestinian territory occupied since 1967,
       including measures aimed at altering the demographic
       composition, character and status of the Holy City of Jerusalem,
       and from its adoption of related discriminatory legislation and
       measures?”
       >
       > “How do the policies and practices of Israel affect the legal
       status of the occupation, and what are the legal consequences
       that arise for all States and the United Nations from this
       status?”

       />The "duty to prevent genocide" is NOT optional. It is codified
       in Jus Cogens International Law. Israel, U.S. et al ARE ALL
       GUILTY of violating Jus Cogens.

       Israel AND the U.S. owe BILLIONS of dollars in damages to the
       Palestinians.
       We will see if [b]Ubi jus ibi remedium (The principle that where
       one's right is invaded or destroyed, the law gives a remedy to
       protect it or damages for its loss.) is more than empty legal
       rhetoric.
