...behind his big brother.

Yes, #Israel's right to exist must not be questioned and must be defended.
But we all know what happens if "some animals are more equal than others."

The #Netanyahu Regime and the IDF personnel must face justice at the #ICJ; so must #Hamas and #Iran for its probable act of piracy.

In fact, I am not familiar enough with shipping laws, but just holding the crew of a ship from a #NATO nation...

...schwach zu wirken.

Ein Angriff mit einer Rakete auf ein #Konsulat in einem anderen Land ist ein kriegerischer Akt. Ich hoffe, auch dieser Fall landet vor dem #UN-Strafgerichtshof (#ICJ). Es darf nicht der Eindruck entstehen, dass mit zweierlei Mass gemessen wird.

Wie heisst es so schรถn in einem zentralen Dokument?

Genau das passiert jetzt: Drohnensturm.

Germany says it has a strict framework for deciding on when and whether to ship weapons. It distinguishes export of:

  • war weapons: ammunition, aircraft, etc.
  • other military equipment: anything else that helps a military wage war

Says that Germany "carefully assesses: all export licences and there's lots of scrutiny.

More "evidence" of Germany's commitment to the wellbeing of the people of Palestine: airdrop pics

ยฏ(ยฐ_o)/ยฏ

#ICJ #Nicaragua #Germany #genocide #complicity #Palestine #Gaza


The speaker for Germany first wants to make the case that Germany has lots of concern for the wellbeing of the people of Palestine.

Evidence offered:

  • that Germany appointed a special envoy for humanitarian assistance to Gaza
  • that Germany donated plenty millions in humanitarian assistance to occupied Palestine
  • says that Germany didn't withdraw support for UNRWA

"While the situation in Gaza is dramatic, there is no risk of irreparable prejudice concerning the rights that Nicaragua asserts vis-a-vis Germany", says Germany.

whoa, the brazenness

#ICJ #Nicaragua #Germany #genocide #complicity #Palestine #Gaza


Germany says that Nicaragua's case against Germany has no legal basis, because the case against Germany depends on an assessment of actions committed by 'israel' (i.e. that 'israel' is plausibly committing genocide), while 'israel' is not a party to the proceedings.

Says that the International Court of Justice has no jurisdiction in this case.

#ICJ #Nicaragua #Germany #genocide #complicity #Palestine #Gaza


Germany points out that it's been offering humanitarian aid to Palestine, not only through UNRWA but also the World Food Programme and other organizations.

#ICJ #Nicaragua #Germany #genocide #complicity #Palestine #Gaza


Germany keeps going on about 'israel's' (supposed) "right to exist", which supposedly is "internationally recognised".

Except that there's reasonable countries all over the world that don't recognise the occupation as legitimate.

Recall the Khartoum Resolution: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khartoum_Resolution

#ICJ #Nicaragua #Germany #genocide #complicity #Palestine #Gaza


Germany rejects Nicaragua's accusations.

"Germany has learnt from its past".

Yeah right.

Says that because it's committed genocide in the past, supporting the existence and persistence of 'israel' is now Germany's duty.

Guess what? Germany has questions to answer for complicity in genocide โ€ฆ AGAIN.

Today is the second day of Nicaraguaโ€™s case against Germany at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in The Hague, for Germanyโ€™s financial, military and political support for the zionist genocide in Gaza.

This morning Germany will give oral arguments.

Germany admits that it's approved over 250 million euros worth of war weapons and military equipment to 'israel' since October 2023.

#ICJ #Nicaragua #Germany #genocide #complicity #Palestine #Gaza


Nicaragua draw the court's attention to the fact that not only is the situation in Gaza most dire --- also in other areas of occupied Palestine violence, racism and apartheid are increasing

And Germany is offering support for all of that

"Nicaragua is hopeful that states, particularly with a history such as Germany's, would heed the decisions of this court [= International Court of Justice]", says Nicaragua.

Another speaker on behalf of Nicaragua takes the floor:

"The nightmare [in Gaza] is increasing, every single day."

#ICJ #Nicaragua #Germany #genocide #complicity #Palestine #Gaza


"Nothing justified the collective punishment of the Palestinian people".

The world can't turn away, says Nicaragua

#ICJ #Nicaragua #Germany #genocide #complicity #Palestine #Gaza


Germany seems to ignore that Palestinian people have the right to self-determination, including the right to take up arms against an occupation, according to the UN charter, says Nicaragua.

#ICJ #Nicaragua #Germany #genocide #complicity #Palestine #Gaza


Nicaragua:

Purely based on the say-so of Israel, Germany cut off funding to UNRWA. Surprisingly, this happened exactly the day after your [i.e. the ICJ's] order on the 26th of January [ruling that Israel is plausibly committing genocide in Gaza]

#ICJ #Nicaragua #Germany #genocide #complicity #Palestine #Gaza


Even if genocide were found not to have been committed, which Nicaragua does not accept, then still selling arms plausibly using in genocide and cutting off humanitarian aid to a people experiencing famine would violate Germany's obligations under international law

Nicaragua mentions the UK legal professionals' recent letter to the UK government, warning them of UK's complicity in genocide: https://lawyersletter.uk/

#ICJ #Nicaragua #Germany #genocide #complicity #Palestine #Gaza #UK #UKPolitics


Nicaragua explains how this current case against Germany is different from the case brought by South Africa against 'Israel', which Nicaragua also supports

It's because different laws are being violated, different obligations being unfulfilled

#ICJ #Nicaragua #Germany #genocide #complicity #Palestine #Gaza


Nicaragua: Germany says it has an obligation toward 'Israel', because of what Germany has done in the second world war.

But Nicaragua points out that any such past acts couldn't ever justify supporting a state committing genocide

Moreover, it also notes that German companies are profiting off the genocide by selling arms to 'Israel'

Nicaragua begins its oral arguments in its case against Germany at the International Court of Justice

#ICJ #Nicaragua #Germany #genocide #complicity #Palestine #Gaza



Proceedings in the International Court of Justice case of Nicaragua vs Germany are starting. You can follow everything live here: https://webtv.un.org/en/asset/k1q/k1qoqif0lq

#ICJ #Nicaragua #Germany #genocide #complicity #Palestine #Gaza


Nicaragua filed an application at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) instituting proceedings against Germany.

Why? Nicaragua alleges that Germany is violating:

  • its obligations under the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide
  • the Geneva Conventions of 1949 and their Additional Protocols
  • โ€œintransgressible principles of international humanitarian lawโ€, and
  • other norms of general international law

... in relation to the Occupied Palestinian Territory, particularly the Gaza Strip.

Oral hearing will start today.

You can watch the proceedings here, starting at 10.00 CEST: https://webtv.un.org/en/asset/k1q/k1qoqif0lq

Nicaragua turns to the occupations supposed 'right to self-defence'.

"Surprisingly, Germany doesn't seem to differentiate between self-defence and genocide"

#ICJ #Nicaragua #Germany #genocide #complicity #Palestine #Gaza


The International Court of Justice (ICJ) has ordered Israel to provide immediate, unhindered delivery of aid to Gaza as part of new provisional measures issued in a genocide case brought by South Africa.

A #MustRead thread: https://progressives.social/@AnarchoNinaAnalyzes@treehouse.systems/112158149698062526

When US responded to #ICJ ruling of plausible case, by stripping all funding from #UNRWA, I argued that was active US execution of #Genocide against #Gaza. New spending bill defunding it until 2025 outstrips that in viciousness & scope.

ALSO NOTE her citation of CNN reporting from 3 wks ago: UN clearly says Israeli govt ***used torture on UN staff*** to extract false confessions.
