Here are countries which welcomed the ICJ case that says Israel is committing genocide against Palestinians in #Gaza.

South Africa filed the lawsuit end of December, accusing Israel of genocide in its war on #Gaza and seeking a halt to the brutal military assault that has killed more than 23,000 Palestinians, nearly 10,000 of them children.

Israelis adding their voice to millions of voices around the world who accuse the government of PM Netanyahu of committing ethnic cleansing and genocide in Gaza may give credence to South Africa's lawsuit.
Dr Anat Matar, one of the petition initiators, told The New Arab that she is filing the petition to the ICJ in The #Hague on Tuesday.
"I initiated this petition first of all because I wanted to show that there is part of Israeli citizens who agree with South Africa's move".
Dr Anat Matar holds a senior lecturer position at Tel Aviv University, where she teaches political philosophy. In addition, she advocates for 'draft refusers', a small segment of Israelis who refuse to serve in the Israeli army because they oppose the occupation.
"What I know for sure is that this war must be stopped immediately. Every moment that passes is a crime".
Israeli member of Knesset Ofer Cassif from the Democratic Front for Peace and Equality-Jabha announced that he's also supporting the initiative.
"My constitutional duty is to Israeli society and all of its residents, not to a government whose members and its coalition are calling for ethnic cleansing and even actual genocide", Cassif wrote on the social media platform X.

However, the warrant means that Putin could be arrested and sent to The #Hague if he travels to any ICC member states.
With this, it is unfortunately finally clear that the principle that all are equal before the law is not respected by the #ICC. Western states have waged numerous questionable wars in Nicaragua, Yugoslavia, Iraq and Syria, which are presumed to be in violation of international #law.

American #military leaders oppose helping the court investigate Russians because they fear setting a precedent that might help pave the way for it to prosecute Americans. The rest of the administration, including #intelligence agencies and the State and #Justice Departments, favors giving the evidence to the court, the officials said.
The only thing that comes to mind is:
