Israel brushed off the accusation and said it was acting to defend itself against Hamas and not the Palestinian population. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p dir=\"ltr\">They have also accused South Africa of acting as an agent for the terrorist group Hamas, which South Africa has&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/middle-east\/israel-counter-genocide-accusations-world-court-2024-01-12\/\" target=\"_blank\">rejected<\/a>.The US has continued \u201cironclad\u201d support for Israel, according to the US State Department&#8217;s own words.

But it means most of the wars that happen in the world are genocidal. Vietnam, then, was a genocidal war.

So it&#8217;s only proper that the US also be charged,\u201d said Kimberley. \u201cI hope this is the beginning of a new way for people to think about these crimes and to acknowledge these military actions as crimes, crimes against humanity, war crimes, genocide, all of these definitions.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201cSouth Africa&#8217;s case, frankly, is based on the public pronouncements of Israeli officials, they&#8217;ve been bragging about it that they&#8217;re committing&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/sputnikglobe.com\/20231108\/israel-admits-possessing-nukes-in-threats-to-use-them-against-gaza---irans-atomic-chief-1114813075.html\" target=\"_blank\">ethnic cleansing<\/a>. So it is a disgrace. The case would be described as meritless, but what can we expect from the country without whom these crimes would not be taking place?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p dir=\"ltr\">According to a&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.middleeastmonitor.com\/20240106-israel-minister-calls-for-ways-more-painful-than-death-for-palestinians\/\" target=\"_blank\">report<\/a>&nbsp;from earlier this month, the Israeli Heritage Minister Amichai Eliyahu urged that Israel should find \u201cways for Gazans that are more painful than death\u201d in order to win the conflict in Gaza. The minister went on to say that Israel should break the morale of Palestinians by destroying their homes, breaking their national dream, and should be driven out of their land via \u201cvoluntary immigration\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><em>In&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.eu\/article\/israel-minister-amichai-eliyahu-suspend-benjamin-netanyahu-nuclear-bomb-gaza-hamas-war\/\" target=\"_blank\">November<\/a>, the minister even called for a nuclear bomb to be dropped on Gaza. He was suspended as a result and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said his statements were \u201cnot based in reality\u201d.<\/em>Sputnik\u2019s Wilmer Leon then addressed a recent American news article that claimed the US secretary of state is \u201coverrated\u201d. Blinken, Leon suggests, actually possesses an \u201cundisguised design for the actual practice of diplomacy\u201d.\u201c\u2018He&#8217;s overrated\u2019. That&#8217;s being very kind,\u201d answered Kimberley. \u201cBlinken, like his boss and his coworkers, are thoroughly incompetent. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"259\" height=\"194\" src=\"https:\/\/www.arabtelegraph.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/download-8-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-202313\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p dir=\"ltr\">They are people whose minds are best in the Cold War-era.

He&#8217;ll be back. As bad as they are, they can fail by their own standards, and they just go around and around in a circle,\u201d explained Kimberley. \u201cThey have the right connections. They went to the right schools, they have the right friends, but they know absolutely nothing about diplomacy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p dir=\"ltr\"> And so it&#8217;s clear that this system is not about diplomacy.

And so we get these horrible people over and over again.\u201d\u201cBlinken has been an absolute disaster.

Well, they&#8217;re forcing the Germans to buy US-fracked gas. So I suppose they&#8217;ve won there, but they haven&#8217;t won anywhere else. Now they&#8217;re stuck in Ukraine.
