Defunding UNRWA is tantamount to out sourcing the genocide to a third party.

Setting the foundation for an addendum to the original charge when Israel is summoned once again to the ICJ

It is and its against ICJ RULEING

Great episode Dania, very impressed by Mr Ali made some great points, some very good people on the right side.

There is a saying in the law, that you may not do indirectly that which you are forbidden to do directly. The attack on UNWRA is an indirect method of perpetrating genocidal acts forbidden by the International Court of Justice on 26 January 2024.

Starving civilians is an ancient military tactic, but today, it’s a war crime. In 1998, the International Criminal Court Statute codified starvation methods as a war crime in international armed conflicts. A 2019 amendment expanded this doctrine to cover non-international armed conflicts - conflicts between states and organized armed groups or between organized armed groups. In addition to food, the legal definition of starvation also includes deprivation of water, shelter, and medical care. -THE CONVERSATION

Thank you Dr. Ali! Canada was one of the countries who immediately jumped on the bandwagon to defund UNRWA, but the next day stated they would fund other humanitarian aide relief sources - likely to avoid themselves being charged with complicity. The fact that Canada jumped immediately, and that they remain in solidarity with the accusation of guilt before unbiased investigations can even establish guilt is deplorable. You are absolutely correct, a country cannot have it both ways. Canada’s actions still amount to halting UNRWA. Still contribute to the hysteria of accusations of guilt before unbiased investigations, and still amount to persistent complicity

I believe they have cut funds for two reasons.The first is to spit on the ICJ judges for not dismissing SAs case and the second is to assist in erasing the targeted people.However, I doubt you can successfully prosecute anyone for not donating money.Just like they will never be able to find me guilty of deliberately boycotting the bussiness of a particuliar ethnic group.We can all spend our income where ever we like, providing the transaction is legal.

Absolutely 💯

Thank you for this great talk and highly appreciative for the amount of knowledge you impart upon us and assure you, we are getting educated and as we do so we will formulate ideas to overcome and defeat AMBIGIOUS laws THEY USE TO CONTROL US. Most importantly drag the 8 billion people to a positive future with us. Useless Organisations that fail us must be confined to the sewers of human history and create a human centric operating system, not COWARDLY POLITICIAL IDEOLOGIES

This is another way to Genocide

Donations are not an obligation , never have been and never will be

Yes a war crime

As someone said, the attack on UNRWA by Israel & accomplices is like justifying the dismantling the entire NHS consequent to the antics of Dr Shipman.

Will some lawyers take these monsters to court.

As a person in a U.S. vassal state (Australia) that very likely made this decision under direction of a foreign power I wonder whether there is a conspiracy aspect to the complicity/perpetration.

Allegations were made immediately following the ICJ ruling (timely) by Shin Bet - an Israeli secret service organisation. Allegations were based on confessions extracted during interrogations in a state where torture is legal. Therefore immediately suspect on all 3 counts, but not to the complicit states who coordinated defunding without verifying the allegations.

Yes, most certainly, with regards to Biden, it's deliberate complicity!

should take canada, US, germany to ICJ

Bonnie Glick spoke well regarding UNWRA and Hamas she put the case precisly *Hamas is totally responsible for the plight of Palestinians and if Muslims who protest are not willing to arrest Hamas or Hamas don't Surrender and lay down their arms it will go on as a legal *self defence* issue, but once they surrender the hostages all this will go away.

What about the countries which have never funded Palastine, are they guilty of not funding?

🎉

#FREE PALESTINE. ALLAHU AKBAR! 😮😮😮

Might be?

Was it not a genocide when UNRWA paying tge terrorists with humanitarian aid, was it not a genocide when UNRWA a staff colluded with hamas and killed the innocent lives and burning some alive in their homes?

MIGHT BE?????

Unrwa =hamas at this point

I might point out the funding comes from poor people paying tax monieschave been taken from us sine 1948 that’s to much oh how high and mighty you are

UNHCR can fill the gap and deliver the aid to Gazans. UNRWA is leting hamas to capture almost all the aid, it is not helping.

Donate yourself

Really? The U.S. funding suspension doesn't even cause any loss of money to UNRWA until June. It's plenty of time for UNRWA to take this seriously and make the changes it needs to make. Other countries funding hits quicker, but the U.S. committing genocide by suspending funding is such a long stretch at this point as to be proof this guy is acting in his capacity as a Palestinian propagandist and not as an international lawyer.

‘Palestinian’ is not an ethnicity or a nationality. The word Palestine derives from Philistia, the name given by Greek writers to the land of the Philistines, who in the 12th century BCE occupied a small pocket of land on the southern coast, between modern Tel Aviv-Yafo and Gaza. The name was revived by the Romans in the 2nd century CE in “Syria Palaestina,” designating the southern portion of the province of Syria, and made its way into Arabic, where it has been used to describe the region at least since the early Islamic era. To reiterate this fact, the ‘Philistines’ originally came from the Greek Isles. Modern ‘Palestinians’ have no relation to them at all-they are Persian, Turkish, Syrian, and Arabian, mostly. SO, ACTUALLY, THE ISRAELIS ARE THE OG PALESTINIANS. Long live Israel in their region that was renamed Palestine by the Romans and was mandated as a Jewish state on 29 November 1947 by the UN General Assembly. On 29 November 1947, the UN General Assembly adopted the Plan as Resolution 181 (II): The plan envisages the division of Palestine into 3 parts: A Jewish state, an Arab State, and the City of Jerusalem, to be placed under an International Trusteeship system. The UN plan was to give the Arabs their own independent state, which never existed before, alongside Israel. Arabs in Palestine were asked by the Israelis to stay and live as citizens in the Jewish state. Arab leaders called for a mass evacuation to the period before the proclamation of Israeli statehood, because they expected an Arab military victory which would annihilate the Zionists. They thought they could leave temporarily and return at their leisure. The British terminated the Mandate on 14 May 1948 and Israel declared independence on the same day. The military forces of Egypt, Lebanon, Syria, Transjordan, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, and Yemen attacked the State of Israel on May 15, 1948. Egypt and Jordan retained control over the Gaza Strip and the West Bank respectively. These armistice lines held until 1967. So, the people presently living in these territories are not ‘Palestinians’, but rather Egyptians and Jordanians respectively. The Arab forfeited their gift from the UN assembly when they declined the offer and instead tried to annihilate the Jews. To reiterate, ‘Palestinian’ was NEVER a Muslim Arab nationality: Ahmad al-Shukeiri, the first Chairman of the Palestinian Liberation Organization, serving from 1964 to 1967, stated “It is common knowledge that Palestine is nothing but southern Syria.” Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) was founded in 1964. It sought to establish an Arab state over the entire territory of the former Mandatory Palestine, advocating the elimination of the State of Israel and the annihilation of Jews-WHICH IS WHAT YOU ARE KNOWINGLY PROTESTING IN YOUR RALLIES. LET US FACE IT-YOU HAVE ALLOW YOURSELF TO BELIEVE IN THE LIE OF A PALESTINE THAT WAS A MUSLIM ARAB STATE SIMPLY BECAUSE YOU HATE JEWS. SO, THAT YOU TOO CAN HAVE AN EXCUSE TO ‘RIGHTEOUSLY’ CALL FOR THE ELIMINATION OF THE ONLY JEWISH STATE IN THE WORLD AS YOU HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH THE 49 MUSLIM DOMINANT COUNTRIES AND 22 ARAB STATES IN EXISTENCE. The headdress had no special meaning until Yasser Arafat draped it to approximate the shape of mandatory Palestine. Then it became an emblem of ‘Palestinian’ identity. Most of the Arabs from the territory of Palestine thought of themselves as members of an all-embracing Arab nation. It was Arafat who made the intellectual leap to a definition of the ‘Palestinians’ as a distinct people: He articulated the cause, organized for it, fought for it and brought it to the world's attention as no Kurd or Basque had ever managed. Arafat’s Fatah organization has always been linked to some of the bloodiest acts of terrorism in the Arab-Israeli conflict, including the massacre of Israeli athletes at the 1972 Olympics in Munich and the 1974 murder of Israeli schoolchildren at Maalot. Israel takes many precautions to minimize Palestinian civilian casualties, by sending leaflets and text messages to evacuate an area that will be attacked. Unfortunately, Hamas blocks them from leaving, even going as far as killing them. Israel shields its people, while Hamas uses its people as shields. Both the Geneva Convention and US military law put the responsibility of harm to non-combatants to those that use them as human shields. It’s specifically described as such- Practice Volume II, Chapter 32, Section J Rule 97-“The use of human shields is prohibited…” Again, Hamas purposefully targets civilians and the Israelis strive to minimize Israeli and Gaza civilian casualties.
