Major US mainstream networks largely ignored Today's 'World Court' proceedings, while Al Jazeera streamed it live.
By Tyler Durden: After the opening day of hearings at The Hague for South African's genocide case against Israel, the Israeli Foreign Ministry blasted the South African government, saying it is "functioning as the legal arm of Hamas."
Foreign Ministry Spokesman Lior Haia further called the proceedings "one of the greatest displays of hypocrisy in history" soon after the first day wrapped up.
He also said that South Africa "seeks to allow Hamas to return to commit the war crimes, crimes against humanity and sexual crimes they committed repeatedly on October 7," in a statement posted to X, additionally calling South Africa's lawyers "the representatives of Hamas at the court."
For the first day of its International Court of Justice case (ICJ, or also commonly called the World Court), South Africa urged an "end to the targeting of healthcare workers, facilities, ambulances and civilians, including women and children" and "a permanent ceasefire and a diplomatic solution for lasting peace."
