South Africa’s ICJ genocide case against Israel over Gaza war was ‘very impressive’: Analysis
Thomas MacManus, senior lecturer in state crime at the School of Law, Queen Mary University of London, tells Al Jazeera that South Africa’s case was “very impressive”.
“They set out in a very concise way some devastating accusations strung together in such a legally sound way,” MacManus said, adding that he was impressed by the way…

This is hypocrisy of South Africa
South Africa is working with interahamwe from Rwandan in Congo
Who committed genocide in Rwanda 1994 who are killing Tutsi in eastern Congo
😮😮
South Africa’s articulated the genocide case so eloquently. I was glued to the live presentation since the BBC deliberately refused to televise it because they wanted to prevent good news for Palestine and stop true propaganda. For those who said South Africa’s case was meritless or nonsense well this is what the highest case thinks of it. it’s because these people hate the precious Palestinians and do not want justice for these people so they dismiss the atrocities and become an inactive bystander to the genocide unfolding in front of their eyes. It is deplorable that when Israel behaved like a child throwing a tantrum because the ICJ court ruled there is a plausible case of genocide inflicted by Israel on the precious Palestinians that then brutal state of Israel attacked UNWRA and had to evidence but their lies and USA blindly said it is highly, highly Credible. Well now we know that this was just an attack without evidence. shameful how the other countries followed the lies.
Proud of South Africa you have the courage to speak the voice of the people around the world❤
Thank you Southwest Afrika…the genocide is already happen over this world for ages. It can not be so difficult to see tht there is a sceme all over the world with the military complex. They all in on it. Its now to the poeple of the world for all supressed people farmers women veteranen fishers poor people. I wish for a great grondwater,mother who has the commen sese and moral life. All these courts, the peoples voices off humanity still make a loud norse for justice.
You can see actions man like a tree has his fruits. All this politics blabla…my God everyone saw what has happend for 70 years,media,goverments justice courts and the military has to end this falshood blabla…
Hope the world gas the discerment..
Something is good thats to know even for a child..
Shame for the leadership of this world. Hope men fathers refuse to listen to a…..
Watch Israel’s proof otherwise.
What repercussions might ensue if Israel were to defy International Court of Justice (ICJ) rulings, similar to Russia's dismissal of the ICJ's directive to halt military operations in Ukraine?
Remember the 27000 innocent white farmers you blacks have murdered. Remember the 5,2 million white home invasions. The rapes and murders. Anc is responsible for the genocide in south Africa.
Israel wont listen to the International court or South Africa
What a scam! This is such an antisemetic blood libel its amazing! The world has gone anti jew crazy.The ICJ shouldnt even hear this con job by depotic regiemes like S Africa at the behest ofHamas who commited and declare A REAL GENOCIDE not a fajke one. S Africa invited over hamas for a Solidarity Meeting after Oct 7th! What a disgrace. !Israel should not pay any attention whatever the so called "result" wich I cannot imagine would be in affirming that Israel commited Genocide
The UN will redeem it self from multiple failures and the stigma of being dictated by the US
Put Biden next in the ICJ after Nataniajo. Biden doesn't fit to represent America being known advocate of freedom and democracy. UN and its security council must prove its worth to achieve justice for Palestinian or else UN is just a rubber stamp
If someone says they were articulate i am going to scream. The case is impressive… any nation could be bringing it. The US and UK should have never allowed it to be necessary. The case is against Israel, but our governments and our money are directly complicit. The discussion in the west is one hundred oercent about shifting blame. The Deneocratic Party is forcing us to pay their price for decades of BS about the entire region. This is just Israel doing what we taught them. Gaza looks like any place colonialists want and cant have without killing people. Clearance, removal, eminent domain, ethnic cleansing, call it what you want, it is the standard practice of rich whute americans and britons. If you think for one second i am engaged in hyperbole, well read a GD book why don't you?
Clearly no one has yet listened to Malcom Shaw & Chris Stakers respective address.
Omar al- Bashir is allowed to exit South Africa with two arrest warrants to his name, via a military base in South Africa. This action supported by the current SA government. Makes one think doesn't it?
Not really actually… Shame on SA
In the case of Israeli Genocide at the ICJ THE World Courts are on Trial. Their judgment will define whether these Institutions serve the purpose for which they have been Established. The People of the World are Watching.
South Africa has plenty of clever people behind the scenes. Well done to the legal team and SA government for taking a stance and standing for what is right! You will always have my respect for this action!
Israel cannot deny their part in who and what Hamas is and become, there is a documented history we need to look at closely, what were the facts found from why the IDF took so long to respond to Hamas on the initial attacks?
SA will lose.
What Gaza war? The destruction of Gaza?
South Africans are not impressed..
Free Palestine ✊🇵🇸
Terroriste Israël!!!!!
South Africa's case is preposterous, ridiculous, and pathetic!
Thank you South Africa
Be Stunned then. SA had NO Facts, Israel could prove everything. A Biased sitting would only rule in SA favour.
I am proud of my county for fighting this injustice. Its still very heart breaking that we as a human race have allowed this to happen.
MEANWHILE IN AFRICA: Sudan, Congo, Niger, Boco Haram, Isis etc. ongoing mass genocide with starvation and machetes
Al Jazeera always finds anti israeli sentiments very impressive till it falls flat in their face then they start crying Islamophobia.impressive?!
History will remember the US and Europe has being on the wrong side of world opinion just has they were on the wrong side when South Africa was struggling against an apartheid regime supported by the US and Europe.
How embarrassing to be a South African – always supporting Dictators, Authoritarian Regimes and Terrorists.. Russia China Cuba, Hamas ETC .. what a blight the ANC is on humanity. If Richard was really a respected Human Rights Lawyer, he would be launching cases against the ANC for violating 1/3rd of the United Nations Unilateral Declaration of Human Rights against SA citizens starting with Article 2! EWC will violate article 17, and NHI will violate the article confirming a person has the right to chose their medical treatment / not the state choosing it for them! taking the violations to 1/2 of all the articles .. but he wastes time trying to defend a lost cause defending a terrorist organization supported by 70% of all those in Gaze still holding kidnapped Israeli citizens
More SA citizens were murdered (350,000) than Afghan Citizens (57,000) during that 20 year war and during the Ukraine war only 12,000 Ukraine citizens have been murdered by Russia, whilst in SA over 51,000 SA citizens have been murdered in the same period.
More Farmers are murdered in SA per capita- than any other country in the world, yet the song Kill the Bore (Kill the farmer) as sung by political parties is not considered hate speech by ANC appointed judges ..
This Proves the ANC is waging a genocide against its own citizens; SA has a 98% Failure rate of apprehending the murderers and prosecuting them – ie the ANC is supporting the genocide against its own citizens .. QED
Some say the ANC is right to charge the Jews
And that the power of their plight lies
In the words they choose.
But within their passion and persuasion
Lies one enormous flaw :
They cannot understand the difference
Between genocide and war.
Arabs collectively have failed the Palestinians…..infact since 1948
What a funny people watching this channel.
We living in a sad world which you been pushed a silly video to promote your agenda.
Sad.
Peace ✌🏻
South Africa won hearts in this case
This case is a JOKE. Israel is defending their people. What about hostages
May GOD ALMIGHTY be with ISRAEL!!! AMEN!!!!
How much did SA waste on this confused case? They jumped UN security Council to defend their friends Hamas disguising with Palistine
Gazan population 1992 grew from 2.1mil to todate 2024 at 5million….now from Oct 8 till now 23,000 Hamas/Gazan was killed….the figure doesnt justify to it a Genocide.
The reason why Israel behaves this way is because of their unwavering support of the US.
Hamas wanted this war and because they are losing the media protects them. And 1% = 20 000/2 000 000 is not genocide. If it is , its the worst genocide ever. The germans did it better by a factor of 300 times
Its so hard for Africans to forget how the world has treated us. We know oppression, we know genocide, we know slavery among others and that is why we will fight for Palestinians
DEVASTATING ACCUSATIONS? YOU MEAN FACTS. WEVE ALL SEEN WHAT THEY DID WHAT THEY DO. FACTS FACTS FACTS.
Israel blew SA’s case back to the Middle Ages. SA forgot a lot of points on purpose and got called out for it.
Amazing to see corrupt Iranian puppets in action. Where were you 75 years ago? BICS has nothing to do with this right?
