- Colombia has requested permission from the International Court of Justice to intervene in South Africa’s case against Israel for genocide in Gaza, aiming to protect Palestinian safety and existence.
- The ICJ has ordered Israel to ensure timely food supplies to Gaza and previously instructed Israel to refrain from actions under the genocide convention and to prevent genocidal acts against Palestinians, which Israel denies, attributing its actions to targeting Hamas rather than civilians.

I know for a fact that’s completely false. The civilian death toll in Gaza is much higher than in comparable conflicts. You’re clearly regurgitating fake facts from Israelis or something.
In fact the Gaza death toll in 5 months was 1.5% of the population (hald of whom are children). For comparison in 2 years the Bosnian Genocide death toll was 3% of the population.
Look I was sympathetic to you wanting people to talk more about Ukraine but trying to derail other conversations and denying a genocide is not cool.
I’m interested in human rights of all kinds and I’m going to talk about all of them as much as I want.
There is no comparable conflict in world history. The tunnels are unprecedented.
Plus the numbers are dropping. 1.5% right now, and people have been saying that number for the last two months. Catastrophic famine has been imminent for four months.
I wish I had time and skill to make a graph of cumulative death toll, month to month, and then extrapolate the number of deaths per day, so we could visualize how the conflict has been winding down almost since it began. By my rough estimation from a few news articles about the death tolls, spread out through March anyway, is that monthly deaths have decreased 20%, month over month. Doesn’t take very many months to see that the genocide apparatus of Israel either doesn’t exist or is utterly incompetent.You know, the death toll has been “1.5%” for two months.
1.1 million people are on the verge of starvation
And have been for four months.
But contrary to the grim ragebait of most news articles, aid has been flowing. Is it Schrodinger’s humanitarian aid? Simultaneously existing in such quantities as to be landing on people’s heads and killing them while also not existing?
