The UN’s Top Court Makes a Mockery of Justice
On the same day that the United Nations in New York honored the International Day of Commemoration in Memory of the Victims of the Holocaust, the UN’s Hague-based International Court of Justice (ICJ) defiled these victims’ memory. The ICJ decided in its provisional ruling to move forward with a meritless case that South Africa brought against Israel, alleging that Israel has been committing genocide against Palestinians living in Gaza. South Africa claimed that it was simply enforcing rights protected by the international Genocide Convention to which both countries are signatories.
