    First off, great username, second off the case hasn’t started yet. Representatives of the Illegal Occupation of Palestine are trying to get the case thrown out on technicality, basically for the country equivalent of jury nullification. Saying “Think of the consequences, if WE get found guilty for genocide, they’ll come after YOU next” in the hopes that certain countries will get afraid and block the case from happening at all.

        I mean i’m still worried, because there is a not-zero chance that colonizer countries get the case thrown out, but what seems more likely is that they’ll get absolutely pounded into bloody stumps in the courts then proceed to go straight back to their genocide completely unimpeded.
