WTF
I am just sick reading this kind of thing

What sort of statistics and images does @EUCommission @Bundesregierung need before they are going to intervene??

#EU #Germany must immediately stop sale of all arms/arms components to Israel
#AidForGaza NOW
#ArrestNetanyahu
#BDS - boycott all Israeli goods/services
#CondemnIsrael #StopIsrael #starvation #StopGazaGenocide #Genozid #ICC #ICJ

This is barbaric and grotesque - what side of history do we want to be on?

The Guardian · Despair in Gaza as Israeli aid blockade creates crisis ‘unmatched in severity’By Bethan McKernan
Replied to GH Ogawa

@gee8sh @bifouba : I share the frustrations of the both of you, but I rather blame myself than the #ICC, #ICJ and other UN-organizations.

Firstly, none of those organizations are comparable to the police. Any expectation, that they'll immediately arrest people who violate laws, is wishful thinking.

More importantly, their authority is based on support by sufficiently powerful member states. Those member states (including NL, DE, US, UK, AU, CA) are to blame for failing to support them or for even ridiculizing them.

#FrancescaAlbaneseIsRight and does her best. But the powers ignoring her, or even calling her an antisemite, are enormous.

Recently Sigrid Kaag, a former well known Dutch politician, now working for the UN, warned of extreme malnutrition affecting 60.000 children 5 years and younger in Gaza: aa.com.tr/en/middle-east/over-: this was fully ignored by the Dutch (NL) press.

The citizens of important member states (including me) have failed to convince enough other citizens and eventually our governments that international justice should prevail.

I am extremely sorry.

It's a long extension though, that Gazans can't afford, by almost 6 months, given the previous deadline was towards the end of July:

That said, any verdicts by the #ICJ or the #ICC are now rendered symbolic. To me, the so-called "rules-based international order" has already collapsed and its institutions, like the #UNGA and the #UNSC are completely toothless and pathetic.

'Only Hellfire': #Israel Says Lifesaving Aid, Troop Withdrawal Off the Table for #Gaza

"Israel's defense ministers can't stop publicly confessing to #WarCrimes," said one U.S. journalist.

by Brett Wilkins, Apr 16, 2025

Excerpt: "Israeli media reported Wednesday that senior government security officials believe Gaza will run out of #humanitarian supplies and #food in about a month.

"Legal experts say the siege is a war crime, and United Nations experts and #HumanRights groups have called Israel's blockade and use of #starvation as a weapon of war acts of #genocide.

"The International Court of Justice—which is weighing a genocide case against Israel—last March issued a provisional order to allow humanitarian aid into Gaza. Many critics say Israel has ignored the directive.

"#Netanyahu and former Israeli Defense Minister #YoavGallant, who ordered the siege, are also fugitives from the International Criminal Court, which last year issued warrants to arrest the pair for alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity, including the siege"
