Canada fully supports the International Court of Justice but that doesn't mean it supports the premise of South Africa's genocide case against Israel, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Friday.
I feel like people in these comments didn’t read the article or listen to the direct statements. Its a super political non-committal statement. If you wanted him to make a commitment about it being genocide, sure, I’d have been happy with what Singh was pushing for, a strong stance of siding with whatever the ICJ decided. But lets be clear, this isn’t a statement that whats going on isn’t genocide. And, frankly, whether it is genocide or not is murky. I lean towards yes, but I’m not any sort of domain expert. The ethnic cleansing and apartheid arguments are much stronger.
