John Mearsheimer analyses the South African “application” to the International Court of Justice, ICJ, and explains why he now thinks it is genocide.
January 5, 2024
Professor John Mearsheimer is one of the world’s leading analytical minds, lately and particularly on both the NATO-Russia conflict in Ukraine and the Israel-Palestine conflict. Please see his words in this article about South Africa’s application to the ICJ:
– “For the record, I believed Israel was guilty of serious war crimes–but not genocide—during the first two months of the war, even though there was growing evidence of what Bartov has called “genocidal intent” on the part of Israeli leaders.⁵ But it became clear to me after the 24-30 November 2023 truce ended and Israel went back on the offensive, that Israeli leaders were in fact seeking to physically destroy a substantial portion of Gaza’s Palestinian population.”
Please share widely. This must stop, and international law must be respected.
We have re-posted it on TFF Substack, so look around when you are there:
