South Africa on Friday launched a case for the ICJ stating that Israel was in breach of its obligations under the Genocide Convention and calling for a halt to its military operations in Gaza.

“The State of Israel will appear before the International Court of Justice at The Hague to dispel South Africa’s absurd blood libel,” spokesman Eylon Levy told an online briefing.

“We assure South Africa’s leaders, history will judge you, and it will judge you without mercy,” he added.

Levy said that Hamas bore full moral responsibility for the war and was “waging from inside and underneath hospitals, schools, mosques, homes and UN facilities”.

He added that South Africa was complicit in Hamas’ crimes against Israelis, without elaborating.

    That one went so far that south Africa is the only country to voluntarily unilateraly give up its nuclear arsenal when a minority risked getting to power

      The marginalised and persecuted majority*

      Though I’m fucking glad they disarmed, I wouldn’t trust the ANC to find it’s way out of a glass room covered with doors, never mind look after nukes. It’s bad enough the state power utility has a nuclear reactor.

          Oh no the white Afrikaaners did lose power. The ANC came to power in 1994. The other commentators post doesn’t make sense for that reason.

        You’re right that I inverted it numerically

        Though, that’s a communication thing. White people are a minority worldwide but never referred to as such. I used the standard way to refer to the different races even though that is statistically incorrect in the hope of it being more directly obvious what I meant
