I don’t understand, there is no proof of genocide in Israel but YEARS of evidence against China and Russia. Can anyone explain this to me?
Lots of people and countries are claiming Russia is committing genocide and are investigating that possibility.
Several nations and legal institutions have also classed China’s actions against the Uyghur as genocidal.
However, as far as I’m aware neither Russia or China are signed up to the ICC so there’s not much point in using that body to penalise them.
Israel is though and your claim there’s no proof is literally true (in the sense you used the word ‘proof’) but there is plenty of evidence that Israel certainly has genocide very much in the forefront of their minds when members of the Israeli government suggest nuking Gaza, or creating ‘no go’ areas for Palestinians in recognised Palestinian areas that just so happen to be where Palestinian farmers grow and harvest food. Israeli historian of the Holocaust Omer Bartov warned that statements made by top Israeli officials “could easily be construed as indicating a genocidal intent.”

-
Israelis are the real victims of genocide in this conflict, as is literally the only possible relation between genocide and Israel
-
There is no “dispute” between Israel and South Africa that the court can rule over, because that would require that they engage with them.
-
“Random quotes” of people like the Israeli Prime Minister, Secretary of Defense, and Knesset members mean nothing, it is not policy
-
Hamas is in literally every home and hospital, in every humanitarian zone and aid vehicle, and embedded in every facility of civilian infrastructure
-
Israel provides all the food, water, medicine, fuel, etc. that Gazans could possibly want
-
Israel must protect themselves from Hamas which has sworn to destroy it
The world has forgotten about the plight of the Ukrainians and Uyghurs who are peaceful
ICJ case against Israel is I think a way for countries whose voices are being vetoed to be heard.
Russia is being called out for genocide all over the world. There is a warrant out for putin’s arrest for that crime.
China is also being panned the same way.
Israel meanwhile is drowning the cries of genocide by calling any mention of it as Anti Semitic speech.
West in my opinion should grow out of their shame about what they did to Jewish people. And start calling out them for the horrors Jewish people are doing.
China and Russia are permanent members of the security council
What does that have to do with the International Court of Justice, isn’t that a separate from the security council?
Its a reflection of the political realities that govern that level of international politics.
