More Than 50 Countries Argue Before World Court Against Israeli
Occupation of Palestine
--- Quote ---
> Arguments are underway at the International Court of Justice,
where more than 50 countries are asking the World Court to issue
a nonbinding legal opinion against Israel's occupation of the
West Bank, Jerusalem and Gaza since 1967. The request is
separate from South Africa's genocide case against Israel at the
ICJ. "Israel has been instrumentalizing the rules of
international humanitarian law … to further its settler-colonial
project in Palestine," says Ahmed Abofoul of the Palestinian
human rights organization Al-Haq, which submitted an advisory
opinion on the case. "I have no doubt that the court will decide
that Israel's occupation is illegal," he says. We also discuss
what comes after the ruling and Israeli society's reaction to
the war.

Gaza at the UN Security Council. It's the third veto by the US
since the start of the war. The text put forward by Algeria
called for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire, and had 13

against it.

Unlawful occupation and apartheid: The ICJ rules in favor of
Palestinian right against Israeli might
--- Quote ---
> Al Jazeera’s senior political analyst Marwan Bishara
highlights that the recent ruling represents a corner-stone and
game-changer in legal terms. He emphasizes that, while the
ruling may not be surprising, it builds upon and extends the
2004 decision concerning the illegality of the apartheid wall in
the West Bank. Bishara suggests that the significance of today’s
ruling lies in its damning and detailed nature.

ICJ reaffirms Israeli occupation as illegal, calls for global

--- Quote ---
> Mustafa Barghouti, the Secretary General of the Palestinian
National Initiative and former Information Minister, joins Al
Jazeera’s live from Ramallah and highlights that the
International Court of Justice, the world's highest legal
authority, has unequivocally condemned Israel's denial of the
occupation. The court reaffirmed that the occupation is illegal
and that the Geneva Convention applies to the occupied
territories. It declared that the ongoing Israeli occupation and
all settlements are unlawful and must be dismantled.
Furthermore, the court has mandated that all countries respect
this resolution and refrain from supporting Israel in
maintaining the occupation.

“Get out of Palestine, it's not your country” Sir Alan Duncan to
Israel
--- Quote ---
> Former UK minister Sir Alan Duncan has called on Israel to end
its occupation of Palestine, stating, "Get out of Palestine,
it's not your country." He criticised the British government's
rejection of the International Criminal Court (ICC) legal
processes, stressing, "If we are signatories to an international
treaty which sets up a court, we should follow and support that
court. The same applies to the United Nations."
>
> Duncan condemned the rise of politicians undermining
institutions they are part of and emphasised the need to
distinguish between legitimate criticism of Israel and
antisemitism. "Unjustified accusations of antisemitism to
silence legitimate comments on Israel are damaging to the Jewish
community," he said.
>
> Duncan noted that he and like-minded individuals are a
minority within the Conservative Party, as most prefer to avoid
controversy. "There's a real lack of understanding about the
history and the facts," he said, "and it's very difficult to
teach people when so many have been on paid trips to Israel,
funded by the Conservative Friends of Israel."
