    Gaza: The Electronic Intifada is hosting a livestream today

    Friday, 26 January 2024 16:33 — The Electronic Intifada

    Please join us live

    The Electronic Intifada livestream is starting soon.

    On Friday, the International Court of Justice will deliver a key ruling in South Africa’s genocide case against Israel over its ongoing extermination of Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.

    The judges in The Hague will deliver their much-anticipated decision on South Africa’s request for urgent provisional measures to stop the killing and other genocidal crimes by Israel, at a public hearing at 1200 GMT.

    We will be joined on our livestream later in the day, at our usual time, by Susan Akram to help us understand what the judges have decided and how it may impact the dire situation.

    Susan is director of Boston University Law’s International Human Rights Clinic. She has taught at the American University in Cairo and at Al-Quds University and Birzeit University in Palestine.

    Among her dozens of books and scholarly articles, Susan Akram is co-editor,
    with Michael Dumper, Michael Lynk and Iain Scobbie, of the volume International Law and the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict: A Rights-Based Approach to Middle East Peace.

    Please join us live on YouTube at this link.

    1900 Palestine time / 1700 GMT / 1700 UK / 1800 CET / 11 am CT / 12 pm ET / 9 am PT

    Decoding Iran’s missile, drone strikes

    Thursday, 18 January 2024 — Indian Punchline

    by M. K. BHADRAKUMAR

    The building described as ‘Mossad Headquarters’ in Iraqi Kurdistan with underground facilities for conducting covert operations hit by Iranian missile attack, Erbil, Northern Iraq, January 15, 2024

    The stunning missile and drone strikes on three countries — Syria, Iraq and Pakistan — over a period of 24 hours and Tehran taking the extraordinary step of announcing its responsibility for the attacks conveyed a very big message to Washington that its stratagem to create a coalition of terror groups in the region surrounding Iran will be resolutely countered.

    Systemic US Media Bias on Gaza Genocide: January 17th Opinion Piece by Bret Stephens

    Thursday, 18 January 2024 — Global Justice in the 21st Century

    [Prefatory Note: The post below is a much modified set of responses to questions posed by Mohamed Elmenshawy a journalist working at Al Jazeera Arabic from Washington  1/10/2024). Question 9 below has been added to deal with Western media bias as illustrated by three opinion pieces published on 1/17/2024.]

    1. How should we interpret the South Africa allegation that Israel’s military operations in Gaza violate the country’s obligations under the United Nations Genocide Convention and that its actions constitute genocide?

    Davos Time

    Wednesday, 17 January 2024 — Pepe Escobar

    UntitledImage

    Davos has been immensely enlightening.

    Everything out in the open.

    War IS Peace.

    Ukraine is NOT losing and Russia is not winning.

    If you disagree with us – on ANYTHING – you will be censored for “hate speech”.

    We want the New World Order – whatever you peasants think – and we want it now.

    And if all fails, Disease X is comin’ to get ya.

    Highlights: Toxic EU Medusa; Norwegian Wood; and BlackRock, JP Morgan et al shaking hands with their sweaty sweatshirt toy.

    Best quote of the week, so far:

    Jake Sullivan: “Through a combination of steady deterrence and steadfast diplomacy, we seek to stop the spread of conflict and to create the conditions for de-escalation.”

     Not Possible

    Saturday, 13 January 2924 — Reminiscense of the future…

    John Mearsheimer doesn’t understand the problem
    It is not just about manufacturing capacity–in theory the US may build, in the next 10+ years, some facilities to increase production of 155-mm shells or drones. But it will not be able to match industrial capacity of Russia in this respect, even with theoretical addition of future, if any, European capacity. The issue here is not just quantity–the target impossible to reach due to utter destruction of US manufacturing base and an extremely complex supply chains for military production. This all is just the tip of the iceberg. The main body of the iceberg is a complete catastrophe that the US military doctrinal and, as a result, procurement development is.

    Great Power Impotence

    Saturday, 13 January 2024 — Simplicius

    I thought this extract from the latest article from Simplicius demonstrates just how much technology has changed the balance of power between the richest country on the planet, the USA and one of the very poorest on the planet, Yemen:


    The US and its tiny isolated rabble of servile ‘allies’ attacked Yemen in an absolutely impotent strike that did nothing and will have no effect whatsoever on Yemen’s continued blockade of the Red Sea.

    Show up for racial justice for Palestinians – oppose the Anti-Boycott Bill

    Thursday, 11 January 2024 — The Institute of Race Relations

    Over the last weeks, campaigners in the UK have targeted arms manufacturers, companies, banks and universities that are complicit in the violation of rights of Palestinians living under occupation. They have also protested against the Economic Activity of Public Bodies (Overseas Matters) Bill (otherwise known as the anti-boycott bill) that had its third Commons reading this week. If passed, this legislation, by preventing public bodies’ investment policies from singling out a particular state or showing ‘political or moral disapproval of foreign state conduct’ will clip the wings of this highly ethical civil society movement. And lest there is any doubt that the bill is aimed at granting Israel impunity for its violations of the human rights of Palestinians, the proof is in the text which names Israel, the Occupied Palestinian Territories and Occupied Golan Heights as territories that the law will explicitly protect from public sector boycotts.

The richest 1% owns more than TWICE as much wealth as 6.9 billion people and the super-rich one percent of the world’s population has accumulated twice as much wealth as the remaining 90 percent, global charity Oxfam said in a newly-released report. The world’s richest 1% emit double the carbon of the poorest 50%, the 2020 Oxfam study found.
