Israel’s Secret Campaign to Shelter Its Leaders from Accountability
A recent investigation just revealed something criminal yet not unexpected: a secret campaign by Israel to impede investigations by the International Criminal Court into its systemic oppression of its Palestinian population. Learn about it from Kenneth Roth, a big name in the international law and human rights arena.
Why Would It Matter If We Called Israel a Rogue State?
If a country shows complete contempt for international law and the world order (no matter how colonial and imperfect), why should it still be treated as “normal” state by the international community?
That’s a question we’re all asking about Israel’s completely disregard for international law and the world’s courts as it’s continuing its mass murder in Gaza.
Years Too Late But Here: International Criminal Court Opens Investigation Into Israel’s War Crimes
The Internacional Criminal Court has opened its investigation into Israel’s genocidal campaign in Gaza. Although it comes painfully and even shamefully too late, it is a historic development in breaking the shield of impunity under which Israel has been operating for decades.
Israel’s Attacks on Rafah: No ‘Red Lines’, Only Mass Killing Supported by The West
The ones who have the power to stop it are choosing not to: with its invasion of Rafah, Israel has proven not only that it has only contempt for the International Law (something it didn’t really need to prove), but that our governments are gladly falling into the abyss of Fascism as they continue to support Israel’s Fascist government.

Do You Listen to Fascists or Do You Listen to Legal Scholars?
I have never seen so much of disregard and even contempt for International Law from people who we would expect to at least pretend to care about it. That façade crumbles when people start defend Israel’s genocide in Gaza and, by doing so, so often let their Fascist views show. The question for you is: who do you listen to? Whose voices do you choose to amplify?
The Double Disregard for International Humanitarian Law When It Comes to Israel’s Destruction of Gaza
Even when we hope for them, there are no limits to Israel’s brutality. Its recent destruction of the Al Shifa Hospital and the killing of World Central Kitchen aid workers prove this point very painfully. Therefore, I invite you to notice all the levels on which disregard for International Humanitarian Law is found when one “debates” Israel’s genocidal attacks on Gaza.
A Must-Watch Conversation on Gaza with Norman Finkelstein and Mouin Rabbani
If you were looking for a resources to strengthen your advocacy efforts for Palestine or if you would like to see where your gaps in the knowledge of history of the region are (just like it’s been for me), please watch this conversation with Norman Finkelstein, Mouin Rabbani.
Gaza: Israel’s Moral Abyss and Our Hope in The Movement
