The fellows called Ackman a “genocide apologist.”

      What do you call when a country’s foreign minister, among other high ranking politicians, calls for the expulsion of an ethnicity from their lands, while his country is using the Article II of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide as a TODO list?

      The Israeli government is not even keeping the part that is supposed to be quiet out of the government’s mouths let alone actually quite.

        I didn’t know you get your comments removed by mods if you say “it’s not a genocide” and they label as misinformation lmfao.

        It’s just not. Nobody thinks that outside of Africa’s league of corrupted nations. I’ll agree that this is misinformation when the non Arabic countries sending Palestine foreign aid consider it genocide. When you can get Justin Trudeau to say it’s a genocide then I’ll change my mind.

          Well the ICJ just decided that there’s a case against Israel, so, despite your racist rant, it’s not just Africa that thinks that Israel actions might fall under the definition of genocide.

            Sorry you are right I shouldn’t have said Africa’s corrupted nations. I should have said BRICS and other axis of evil nation states instead.

            But anyways, nobody gives a flying fuck about any ruling coming from the ICJ especially if the EU is not backing it.

            Would you prefer Biden? Macron? Scholz? They all don’t call it a genocide. Who is calling it a genocide? The Arab league signed up to call it a genocide as a whole but does al-Sisi even call it a genocide? Does the king of Saudi call it a genocide?

              Most world leaders also don’t call the Armenian genocide, genocide despite the fact the word was coined to describe it, and you have plenty of examples of genocide after WW2 that were tolerated by the international community. International politics are not a good court, because governments by their own nature tend to focus on what’s expedient for the national interests and not in what’s right.

              Edit: I just remembered a particularly nasty one, remember when the western world and China decided to support the Khmer Rouge and the Cambodian Genocide (and before you go full denialist on this one, it was classified as such by an international court).

              I don’t have a preference. I was, and still am, just curious why Justin Trudeau?

              Now I am also why you listed all the others you listed as well?

                Idunno maybe because they are leaders of major countries involved. I listed Trudeau as a notable left leaning western leader who does not agree with this agenda.

                Why is South Africa championing a genocide ICJ case for Palestinians?
