About 200,000 people have taken to the streets of Germany in further protests against the far-right party Alternative for Germany (AfD).

Protests on Saturday also took place in Dresden, Mainz and Hanover in a sign of growing alarm at strong public support for AfD.

Roughly 150,000 people flocked to the Reichstag parliament building in Berlin, where protesters gathered under the slogan “We are the Firewall” to protest against right-wing extremism and to show support for democracy.

      Thanks, but I have read the order I don’t need a random secondary source to know what’s in there or not. Paragraph 80.

      I mean even on the face of it: It’s Israel which is getting sued, not the rest of the world. Of course the ICJ is thus going to order Israel to do stuff, not the rest of the world, which isn’t in the dock.

        The court determined that there is risk of genocide, so the world community MUST act. Instead they cut of funding for humanitarian aid, which is in direct contravention of international law.

        1.

          That’s not a court order. It’s not even a treaty. It’s a summit paper summing up how the participants understand applicable international law. The summit was 2005. Israel already did shady shit back then but SA hadn’t yet brought a case before the ICJ, mostly because Israeli politicans hadn’t yet run their mouth regarding the seed of Amalek and stuff which enabled dragging Israel before court in the first place as the charge of genocide requires intent to destroy, not mere war crimes, those kinds of quotes are necessary to prove intent.

          Learn to actually read and contextualise the stuff you’re quoting. I don’t disagree with the sentiment but boy are your posts full of holes. Hasbara would have you for breakfast.
