Do we know on whose side is Belgium intervening?
Seems Belgium is intervening on the notion of "intent" of the Genocide Convention.
From my own reading of the document (which might be faulty, I am not an expert in international law), it seems to be in support of South Africa's motion.

Thank you.
I saw the document, but do not speak French, hence the question
This:
Their argument is that you (i.e. Israel) can't argue that it isn't genocide when it happens during military action.
Thank you for the explanation 
Thank you

-# note that this is very much an ed-op type piece
Understatement... it's a rant in an old Likud-aligned magazine that regularly denies Palestinians even exist.
Exclusive -- We obtained leaked high-level Israeli government documents.
They reveal how the Israeli government waged a ten-year lobbying campaign in Britain to protect its officials from war crimes arrestsđ

I think this is the same mayor's office that tried to order theaters shut down for showing a Palestinian film.

The same things have happened since 2023, same modus operandi, blue stars of david painted on buildings, red hands painted on a Shoah memorial and multiple cases of pig heads being deposited in front of mosques, done by bulgarian, moldovan or serbian citizens for money and attributed by the DGSI (think french FBI, internal securtiy service) to the 5th service of the FSB :

Around 250 blue Stars of David - similar to the one on the Israeli flag - appeared on Paris buildings.
The group conspired to tag the Paris Holocaust memorial, one of nine cases of suspected Russian-orchestrated stunts.
Foreign nationals are blamed for the incident, which has striking similarities with other recent provocations.

oops, yeah, sorry
Hello! Is it really necessary to start up a discussion from 2023?
Also, please remember that in this server we want to concentrate on verifiable facts. Which is exactly why it may not be wise to start up a discussion that ended in november 2023?
Omg, totally not! Iâm really sorry. I was looking at the latest posts and mustâve scrolled up without noticing. I thought this was current
