Do you think that Russia would have been banned if Ukraine started the invasion by massacring hundreds of innocent civilians at a rave party in Russia, and took random tourists back home to Ukraine to rape them, and then spread videos of it all?
Now, Israel is all but innocent. But it is not 1:1 comparable
Indeed it’s not a 1 to 1 comparison. One country is ordered by the ICJ to stop committing a potential genocide, and the other isn’t.
Edit: added the word ‘potential’ to more accurately represent the ICJ ruling.
It has been ordered to PREVENT a hypothetical genocie, not to stop "committing a genocide".
Israel has done enough bad shit that you don't need to lie to prove your point
Euro-Med Mon has been found to misquote and use falsified statistics several times, why are you relying on a third party to tell you the news from the press release when it is available publicly online on the ICJ website?
