The list of the current 15 justices on the International Court of Justice bodes ill for Israel.
Here is that list:
The President of the Court is Nawaf Salam, a Muslim from Lebanon.
The Vice-President is Julia Sebitunde of Uganda. Religion unknown.
Judge Peter Tomka of Slovakia.
Judge Ronny Abraham of France.
Abraham is a native of Egypt, possibly a Copt. He is the author of, inter alia, Legal Consequences of the Construction of a Wall in the Occupied Palestinian Territory. That title includes the phrase “Occupied Palestinian Territory,” which makes clear where his sympathies lie.
Judge Abdulqawi Ahmed Yusuf of Somalia. A Muslim.
Judge Xue Hanqin, China.
China is now being swept by an anti-Israel and antisemitic campaign in the media, promoted by the government. Judge Hanqin would not dare to defy the policies of the Chinese government.
Judge Dalveer Bhandari, India. Not a Muslim.
Judge Iwasawa Yuji, Japan.
Judge Georg Nolte, Germany.
Judge Hilary Charlesworth, Australia.
Judge Leonardo Nemer Caldeira Brant, Brazil.
Judge Juan Manuel Gomez Robledo, Mexico.
Judge Sarah H. Cleveland, United States.
Judge Bogdan-Lucian Aurescu, Romania.
Judge Tire Dladi, South Africa.
Both the powerful President of the Court, Nawaf Salam, and at least one other judge, Judge Abdulqawi Ahmed Yusuf of Somalia, are Muslims and will not look with favor on Israel. Another judge, Tire Dladi, is from South Africa and will undoubtedly uphold the South African charge of “genocide” against Israel. Still another, Ronny Abraham, now a French judge, is a native of Egypt, and though not a Muslim, has written about the security wall built by Israel to separate the Palestinian population in the West Bank from Israeli cities and towns with a palpable want of sympathy for the Jewish state. Another judge, Xue Hanqin, is from China. Unlike the judges from Western countries, she will vote as her country instructs. Right now the government of China is resolutely opposed to Israel, and the Chinese media are now in the midst of an anti-Israel and antisemitic campaign.
That means that of the 15 judges on the ICJ, at least five of them, from Lebanon, Somalia, France (Ronny Abraham, a native of Egypt), China, and South Africa, are already either certainly, or most likely, to vote with South Africa and against Israel. It will only take three of the remaining ten to accept the South African view, promoted by the President of the ICJ, for Israel to have a majority of judges arrayed against it. It’s hard to see how Israel can prevail at the ICJ, with a judicial deck so stacked against it.
It’s a bit rich that S Africa can criticize any other country when it comes to matters of justice, while black S Africans are murdering white farmers and seizing their farms, all the while the government does nothing about it. A clear case of the pot calling the kettle black.
I understand that the ANC was in serious financial trouble last year, but was able to iron the matter out at about the same time as the ICC case.
Remember Clintons last act of Treason before he left the Whitehouse was to sign America into the ICC
Hey genius, The US is not a member of the ICC.
Look at the building they are all sitting within.
It’s a church.
Agenda 2030 is the new religion.
You are correct. Further, the physical church has syncretized the new religion and has left the simplicity and power of the Gospel of Christ.
Jeremiah 7: 4 Do not trust in lying words, saying, ‘This is the temple of Yahweh, the temple of Yahweh, the temple of Yahweh.’ 5 For if you truly make your ways and your deeds good, if you truly do justice between a man and his neighbor, 6 if you do not oppress the sojourner, the orphan, or the widow, and do not shed innocent blood in this place, nor walk after other gods to your own evil demise, 7 then I will let you dwell in this place, in the land that I gave to your fathers forever and ever.
8 “Behold, you are trusting in lying words to no avail. 9 Will you steal, murder, and commit adultery and swear while lying, and burn incense to Baal and walk after other gods that you have not known, 10 then come and stand before Me in this house, which is called by My name, and say, ‘We are delivered!’—that you may do all these abominations? 11 Has this house, which is called by My name, become a robbers’ den in your sight? Behold, I, even I, have seen it,” declares Yahweh.
Will the ICC treat Israel fairly? In a word, NO!
Just look at the cast of characters posing as judges. What a joke.
The UN and it’s attendant spinoffs is the worst thing that has happened to the world. They might as well call it the UICD (United Islamic/Communist Dictators)
Even the United States, under the Biden regime, doesn’t treat Israel fairly. This lame-a$$ treatment goes back as far as the Truman admin.
Netanyahu should clowns to pound sand
Typo alert:
Netanyahu should tell these clowns to pound sand.
Actually, the FDR administration turned down Jews trying to escape nazi Germany before the war and were turned away. So the antisemism goes back that far and further.
How can one bring charges of discrimination against the so called judges?
Surely one can Judge the Judges ?
The judges don’t matter. Israel did not sign the treaty that created the ICC, and therefore, is not subject to it’s supposed “authority”. Any attempt by the ICC to arrest a foreign dignitary of a non-member country would be an Act of War, and should be responded to as such, with brutal military force.
A bunch of douche globalists, trying to exert their will onto free people. Each member of the “court” needs to have a fair, 3 minute tribunal for their life. Death sentence to be carried out, 5 minutes after conviction.
The one bright spot in this dismal list is Julia Sebutinde, who voted against all of the anti-Israel resolutions last time. The following month, February 2024, she became Vice President of the ICJ. A clear case of “Those who bless you, I will bless” to my way of thinking. She has a strong track record on challenging corruption and appears to be a woman of integrity. Her faith background is Christian.
