International Judges
Not withstanding the verdict, the international court in the Hague consisting of 20 top judges could not agree on a verdict whether Israel was committing Genocide or not, just going by the around 9,000 children killed in five months makes that a bit of a joke. If they had said it was not Genocide at least it would have been a decision. Who pays these people.

Re: International Judges
Maybe it all depends what religious faith they have Des ? JS
I look at it from the angle the whole of the Yemen were in collusion with Hamas and applauded their actions. All the president of the Yemen has to do is surrender or cede the country to Israel and put down their arms and the mass killing would stop. This they don’t seem to want to do. Israel declared war on being attacked and did the correct thing which I hope most western countries would do. All it takes to stop the killings is for the Yemen to say ok we cede. JS. Then it is time for the judgements to be handed out. JS

Re: International Judges
An Australian Politician saying it, as it is, one of the very few !
At a Victorian High School foreign students raised a Middle East flag on a School flag pole.
Australian students took it down - Guess who was expelled- the students who took it down.
W.A. High school students were sent home because they wore T- shirts with the Australian flag printed on.
Enough is enough this message should be viewed by every Australian . Australia has bent over to appease the Aussie- haters long enough .
He is saying this because of the hundreds of thousands who died fighting for this country and for the Australian flag, and Shame on anyone who tries to make this a Racist message.
You are welcome in this country
1 Get a sponsor
2.learn the language as immigrants have in the past
3.Live by our Rules . Dress as we do.
4 Get a job.
5 Pay your taxes
6 No social securiy until you’ve earned and paid for it.
7 Find a place to lay your head.
I’m voting for him next time round. Most Australians know him as is a well known politico. And a straight gun. This is only a short extract from his interview.

#2 For Yemen read Palestine error !! The two countries stand for the same thing and not too much difference in their claim to fame. Is my excuse. Apart from a wee dock and Doris. JS.

Re: International Judges
Probably Africa sees the Palestinians as taken up all the places in other parts of the world and leaving less for them to claim as being broke and homeless. Israel has 2 choices 1. She withdraws from Palestine and the conditions return to Hamas again carrying on where they left off or 2 Carry on regardless. The third one I suggested which would have saved a lot of lives was for the president of Palestine to surrender to superior forces and put down their arms. Then have the 20 so called judges after they’ve finished their tea and tabnabs return to their court after claiming expenses and give a ruling which no one is going to listen to anyway. Palestine as you say started it and only they have the power to finish it, some government they have !!! JS
They could of course try China for a port of Refuge the Africans that is, after all what are friends for. JS

Re: International Judges
What is also disconcerting about this affair is the country which brought the charges - South africa - a country which sees the
continuing slaughter of white farmers . What would they call it , selective genocide ?.

Re: International Judges
Really surprised no one has mentioned under whose suggestion are South Africa acting. I suspect Valadimir Putin or Xi Jinping may have planted the seed.
Why are Russia & China cosying up to South Africa, of course Gold , Coal and other minerals has nothing to do with it and the fact that the west can be isolated from world trade. The Iranians & Houtties close the Red sea & restrict oil coming out of the Gulf. Shipping goes South about but have to get past a South Africa.
Doom and gloom I know but this is leading up to a much greater world conflict.
