| Yesterday the lawyers representing South Africa focused mainly on the facts. Today Israel's representatives focus a lot on rhetorics. The general public is often very susceptible to that kind of tricks - blowing smoke, whataboutism and reframing the context, but I doubt it works on these highly qua... |

| ^^ Here's the full stream of the oral arguments by Israel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=939hSvcH0qM I notice that the previous videos posted contained only clips of the arguments for the purposes of someone else's commentary in 15 minute videos. So, since I posted full stream of South Africa's ar... |

| Why on Earth is Israel withholding tax revenues that belong to the PA???? The PA isn't Hamas. Is Netanyahu’s government TRYING to provoke violence among West Bank Palestinians just so Israel can have an excuse to kill them all and/or take even more Palestinian land??? It’s personal.

But the USA is not a state party to the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court (Rome Statute), which founded the International Criminal Court. I guess that will ma... |

| And South Africa had a historical friendship with Israel, so that’s kinda surprising. The ANC has always had a relationship with the PLO and then later the Palestinian Authority. South Africa was one of the few countries in Africa that had relations with both Israel and Palestine since the PLO beca... |

| Hmm, I don't know. I'd think that the fact that this has been the most destructive in history of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict with the most casualties on both sides, means that people on both sides should probably think again about their long-standing positions.
