The majority of the UN absolutely should face ICC charges, but most certainly not for the reasons Israel thinks they should
Israel: “I know you are but what am i?” when responding to claims of genocide.
This article cites the following Tweet from Israel’s Ambassador to the UN Gilad Erdan:
The proceedings in The Hague demonstrate how the UN and its institutions have become weapons in service of terrorist organizations.
The use of the Convention on the Prevention of Genocide against the Jewish state and in service of the Nazis of our time, Yahya Sinwar and Ismail Haniyeh, proves that there is no moral low that the UN has not descended to.
The UN is the one who should sit on trial in The Hague for turning a blind eye, and thereby serving as an accomplice, to the digging of terror tunnels in Gaza, in the use of international aid for the production of missiles and rockets, and in the education of hatred and murder.
If there is even one iota of reason and morality left in the UN, then the despicable prosecution by the terror supporting South Africa should be thrown into the dustbin of history in the coming days.

Does anyone dispute the headline or the contents of the article? If so, please do so.
I do. Israel is a settler-colonial occupier charged with ethnic cleansing. They don’t get to let the sum of their self-defense be “I know you are but what am I” on the international stage. If South Africa were providing money, manpower, or materiel to Hamas the way Amerika provides money, manpower, and materiel to Israel(and mind you, this makes Amerika an accomplice to YET ANOTHER genocide in their vast and bloodstained history), then Israel would only have ground to stand on in that South Africa is an ally to the oppressed that Israel is trying to overwrite.
The oppressed and colonized are not and cannot be ‘terrorists’ against those who are trying to genocide them, take their land, and take their holdings. They’re merely defenders against an age-old barbarism that I thought the oh-so-holy, oh-so-moral western world had said “Never again” to. Hypocrites, barbarians, genociders, and ghouls. I charge white Amerika with genocide just the same as South Africa charges Israel.
If anyone here has an issue with that, read the below bumper sticker til my stance makes sense and until you can read it backwards.
Are you disputing that Israel said that the UN should be tried at The Hague?
Oh, not disputing that it was said. What I dispute is its validity. There is nothing more repugnant to me than a settler, save a settler that likes to play word games around what it is they’re doing.
Fuck RT. Russian Propaganda like RT should be banned.
EDIT: Love the downvotes from removed tankies. RT is trash and so is anyone that reads/supports them.
Let’s just be clear, your position is that citing the Israeli Ambassador to the UN is Russian propaganda that’s anti-Israel?
You say be clear and then you muddy the water by adding anti-israel? RT is propaganda no matter what they say or who they talk to. Do better next time.
Removed by mod
Oh no! Their anti-“propaganda tool of a fascist autocracy” bias is showing!
Where did you get “anti-isreal” from? They said it was Russian propaganda. Maybe work on your reading comprehension as well as your critical media analysis skills?
Agreed. Hate it when people put words in my mouth based their shitty reading comprehension.
So who was your poisoner, Maddow, Maher, or some other MSNBC sleaze? tl;dr you should go back to Reddit if this is the extent of your criticality
RT may be garbage but why ban it? Better become more informed readers.
Are you prepared to ban Fox, MSNBC, CNN, the Atlantic, the Washington Post, the Huffington Post, the New York Times, BBC News, Forbes, Fortune, BusinessInsider, and Snopes too? If not, your crackery is showing
RT isn’t news.
By that measure, neither are the New York Times, the Washington Post, the Atlantic, Huffington Post, or the Guardian.
Exactly right
Then neither is NPR, BBC, ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, NYT, WaPo, Wall St Journal, Forbes, Reuters, AP, et. al. because they have all published government lies, have been publicly shown to be infiltrated by government spies, and have never once done anything about it.
And yet it points to the exact statement being made with little extra commentary.
