    I really hope they win. But i’m somewhat doubtful. I feel like they’re either going to lose or the court is going to water down the language used to condemn Israel. But yes, if they do win, that’s the most pertinent question.

    I think you have judges from each major country, so that might influence their decision, very possibly negatively for South Africa’s case.

    I’m really not familiar with law/ international law so i speak under correction.

    I hate to be negative about this, but i’m not holding my breath until i see the judgement. The international courts have shown that they’re quick to cast judgement on Russia when the US and Europe barked orders at them to, with i don’t even know what evidence. Now there’s a pile of evidence for genocide by Israel but they’re scratching their arses refusing to say ‘Israel’ and ‘genocide’ together in a sentence.

    One very good thing to come out of this is keeping the genocide in the spotlight in the international community. And i hope it starts putting more pressure on Israel and the US
