🇵🇸 Important statistics regarding "israel's" upcoming report back to the ICJ on the measures ordered on January 26th 2024.

from Diana Buttu, 25/Feb/2024: (transcribed from twitter thread screenshots)

"Israel is required to submit its response to the ICJ outlining the measures it has taken since January 26 to prevent genocide. Here is what they actually did.

Israel killed an average of 100 Palestinians per day bringing the death from 26,422 to 29,514

Israel blocked delivery of humanitarian aid including by allowing Israelis to erect a bouncy castle in front of Kerem Shalom (spot for entry of goods)

Israel allowed only on average 62 trucks of aid in per day even after committing to allowing 200 per day (though 500 or more are needed)

Israel continues to refuse to resume electricity and water supplies.

Israel has not prosecuted a single soldier for their genocidal acts. Israel has not acted to stop genocidal speech.

"We are witnessing genocide and no one is stopping Israel."

EDIT: I've now made a post that you can read here with more information about the ICJ rulings, their powers and what we can do with this ruling here. I had to this morning and will continue to delete, report, and block all comments/asks that are anti-Arab, zionist, Islamophobic, racist, and/or antisemitic.

We already knew this but the ICJ has now ruled that Israel's continued occupation of Palestine is illegal and needs to end ASAP.

They found that Israel's occupation does not give it the right of sovereignty over the West Bank and Gaza and that it is not a temporary occupation but is an illegal, permanent and discriminatory annexation. The ICJ also found violence against Palestinians, Israeli exploitation of Palestinian natural resources, transfer of civilian population (settlers and companies/organisations), extension of Israeli laws to replace local Palestinian laws, forced displacement of Palestinians, confiscation of Palestinian land, annexation. That Israel's 'security concerns' are not valid justifications for any of these measures.

The ICJ has ordered Israel to end its presence in the West Bank and Gaza immediately and to cease all new settlement activity, return all lands and assets to Palestinians that they've ceased since 1967 and that includes archives and items of cultural significance, evacuate all of their settlers from the settlements, pay compensation, and repeal all laws that maintain this occupation and discrimination. The ICJ is not legally-binding but does carry significant political weight and this ruling is important for continuing to advocate for Palestine and to put pressure on our government's to do the right thing and for them to put pressure on Israel. Keep contacting your representatives!

Twitter thread by Craig Mokhiber (@CraigMokhiber)
The World Court has just rejected all Israeli, US & western objections, ruled that the Israeli occupation of Gaza & the West Bank, including East Jerusalem (and all settlements), is entirely unlawful & declares Israel is committing racial segregation/ apartheid in the OPT.

Importantly, they also ruled that the Oslo agreements do not and cannot trump the obligations of international law, which protect the rights of the Palestinian people.

And it rules that Israel must Evacuate all settlers, dismantle settlements and the wall, provide full reparations to Palestinian victims, and allow all Palestinians who were forced out to return.

All states and international organizations must end any aid or assistance to the occupation and must take action to ensure that Israel complies and ends the occupation.

All decisions had overwhelming support across the court. As usual in Israel cases, Judge Sebutinde voted against every decision (sometimes joined by Abraham (France) and Aurescu (Romania)).

This is an historic decision, codifying what has long been known in the international legal community, but giving further support to the struggle for Palestinian liberation & providing another stepping stone in the path toward ending apartheid, colonialism & genocide in Palestine
Quoted Tweet by Saad
This biggest impact of ICJ ruling is that since Gaza has been defined as occupied territory, it means Israel DOES NOT have a right to self defense from any groups in Gaza.
Occupying powers do not have right to self defense from occupied people.

This ruling is non-binding (not sure how it would be enforced even if it was considering Israel's chief protector is the U.S., which doesn't recognise the International Criminal Court and keeps trying to punish it for this kind of thing), but there's support for it across the board except from the US and its new vassal state, the UK. The Tory government has backed the US in ignoring every ICJ ruling on Palestine thus far and Starmer has been avoiding the issue but reinstated funding for UNRWA a few hours after the latest one. Starmer is a spineless Zionist maggot and as much of a US shill has the Tories however, so which way his government tips will probably depends on the strength of the US's reaction.

If you still want to vote for that death-worshipping lurching corpse in November and maybe claim back some of the voters who've decided they can't endorse this bloodthirsty maniac, now is the time to take to the streets and threaten to withhold your vote unless he fucking complies. Don't worry, the same amount of you will vote for him anyway since genocide is not a red line for you, but the DNC is jumpy enough now that they might want to err on the side of caution. Please try and stop your precious democracy from massacring any more children, even if only to save your own skins.
