As a Brit.. I am ashamed of our government.. Genocidal liars.. Shame on you!
One state solution = democracy for all : jews and Palestinians. Two state = Apartheid (“separateness”). One state for all who live in it: Jews and Palestinians. (from the river to the sea, one state there shall be).
No Murcy
This is heinous duplicitous verbal diarrhoea from my own government. They say they want a ceasefire, yet abstain from demanding one. They say they support a two state solution and established agreements, yet they support Israel militarily while this state has run rough shod over all International law and agreements since it was founded and especially since 1967. The UK is party to the genocide because our government wants it. They should be up in court, alongside Blair, Bush, and all the Western War Criminals.
Let me translate her statement in plain English.
‘To allow this case to go forward and if it results in an end to this OCCUPATION, this would mean that our big investment in destroying Gaza to make new modern and beach front housing will be completed and it would be disastrous for us. Furthermore, the many settlers who currently are living on Palestinian lands and homes will have to come back to the UK and we just can’t have that. We have invested so much in creating an environment for these Zionist to leave the UK and to have to take them back is just not possible for us. We urge the court to send this back to the UN Security Council where we can control the outcome of it and try delays, rejections, bribing and other methods such as war and imprisonment, the Palestinian issue will reach the _final_ _solution_ that we have planned for it.
Here’s an even shorter translation: “We don’t want em, you keep em”
Hypocrites!!
UK representative: I reject reality and substitute my own because basic logic would lead to my actions supporting genocide.
2 state solution? Nope. That ship has sailed.
Back in the 1940’s France was attacked & occupied by the Nazis, But the French resistance fighters were treated like heroes & supported for attacking & killing there occupiers,,,,,,, Tell me what’s the difference between them & Hamas who are doing exactly the same as they did? But are called terrorists & savages ???,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
😢
Stop genocide and starvation Palestinians. Freedom and justice ⚖ for Palestinians. Free Palestinian
A lot of mumbo jumbo, trying to hide the fact that UK is trying to block the court from finding Israel guilty of law violations. Yea, service to the Zionist s
UK only facilities all this disaster. They themselves are colonialists and shouldn’t speak to what needs to be done since they’re in bed with the guilty party.
Obsessed with Israel 🇮🇱 mind your own business
UK = Israel’s lackey
I’m British and she does not represent my understanding – GENOCIDE is what we’re witnessing and; in light of Israel, UK & US flagrant ignorance of Human Rights & International Law on which, the UN Security Council is founded, all 3 nations need to be expelled from the UN until such time that military, political & economic corruption in those nations has been democratically & lawfully addressed.
i agree in full
I’m British and I agree. I have no idea what goes on in the leaders of this country’s heads 😢
1 – mosab yousef says israel isn’t committing genocide. how can we armchair generals disagree w/ mosab?
2 – what’s your opinion of what bobby fischer said about the UK in ARNSi0cPu60 on 2005Mar25 ?
3 – which is worse: 30k gaza vs 1m muslim uyghur’s?
Looks like she was politely hinting the Court not to make decisions that will impede US and UK interests to assist Israel in its genocide objectives..
Netanyahu’s made it clear, there will be no negotiations, no Palestinian state. UK are just acting as a smoke screen, trying to obscure the issues. The occupation needs to end and will only happen when Israel is obliged to comply. The first step towards that, IS the court making an advisory decision.
………”Zionism is a genocidal ideology”, “It should be dismantled and destroyed “, Professor David Miller, formerly at Bristol University, in comments made in 2024, based on his academic research. Larry Johnson, former CIA analyst described Israel’s genocide on Gaza like the “Nazis when they entered Eastern Europe “. Recently, a young Palestinian mother and her little boy went out to buy Clementines, only to be butchered in cold blood by an Israeli sniper. One of multitudes of blatant atrocities.
She talks like Israel is not actively carrying out GENOCIDE today
You’re destroying whatever little credibility you have left before the whole world. Your voice will no longer carry weight in matters of human rights and dignity.
Uk and America are complicity in genocide don’t let them fool you.
Colonial mindset
The uk government are a disgrace
It’s all united condoms fault
So they are okay with israels actions😅
Israel never has and never will, willingly “negotiate” for a Palestinian state. It shouldn’t be up to Israel feeling generous to offer statehood for these people. It should be demanded by the international community, and then Israel has to deal with it. No other situation do we sit on our hands as much as we do and watch this horror show unfold. What a joke. Israel is actively sabotaging any chance of a Palestinian state.
Free palestine, how hard is it to understand the fact that Israel has m*erderd thousands of innocent civilians including innocent babies, some not even 1 day old, how hard is it to call it a genocide? If something like this happened in america it would be condemned hard imeadeatly. Why is this not the case for gaza? They are more human than most of the world and have hearts of gold. Free palestine.
Shame on the UK. UK only recognised 7th Oct and failed to mention the 30,000 Killed Palestinians.
I am ashamed the UK Government. I never voted for this. This government does not represent me
A lot of people in numerous nations aren’t truly represented by their government. Most people in the United States are in total opposition to the agendas in DC. Democracy in the west has become a total sham .
Suddenly what has happened to UK !? Telling completely opposite of their previous activities !! Wanting to recover image destroyed in huge amount ! 🤔-bmd
Disgrace
❤
Yes, ICJ can rule on the Gaza genocide and Israel’s occupation if there is respect for international laws and the United Nations, the depositary of global affairs. It’s possible that if all nations are equal under a multipolar political order, the UN organ should never be under the control or supervision of any nation. The UN mandate though obsolete colonial relics is a collective duty. It is a fact that we live in a free, multipolar world, and unipolar, deluded nations are the global problem. The United States and a few allies have no moral high ground, honor, or the right to prefect any country in the world or pull the strings of the UN and any of its organs. This is especially true after the US litany of shameful vitriols of international order and law. The US conduct and spread out complicity in the Palestinian genocide, for instance, are the final straws that evoked international revulsion and fortified the belief and need for multipolarism. The US respects no one, including its citizens. It has no regard for anyone or anything, not even the age-old falsifying international order and the human rights it feigned to defend. What makes one nation so unique to colonize, control, enslave, or deter others from accomplishing exactly what it practices in public and private? Americans’ contorted self-reflection has unfailingly shown a mistaken image of a nation under the political system of democracy when it’s an accursed plutocracy in reality It’s delusional for the United States to assume it’s a law unto itself. It’s not. The prize of hypocrisy and double standard is outright international renunciation and permanent isolation
these are the lip service of UK I hope none will believe in her hypocrisy oath.
Recent statements say that
0:46 utter lie of Uk , they didn’t reduced support for apartheid israel – or Another state is engulfing day in and out another by their Active support – ONLY EMPTY word here ..
Only hearing what u want ICJ
Reminds of what Shashi Tharoor said ” The sun never set in British Empire because even God couldn’t trust the British in the dark”
West , the champion of humanity and human rights, oh what a sham.
U.K. CREAT ISRAEL ON PALESTINIAN HOME LAND STOLEN THEIR LAND
There is NOTHING civilized about a so called civilized country (uk usa germany and Israel) who would allow to do this , allow others to do this encourage through no accountability for said government who is GENO SIDING AN ENTIRE PEOPLES AS AN OCCUPIER NO OWNER OF THE LAND AND PROCEED TO SAY THAT MUSLIM COUNTRIES WILL PAY THE REBUILD OF PALESTINE ?!?!? THE CAUSACITY AUDACITY OF IT ALL ?!?!?
*End the illegal occupation of Palestine.*
War Criminal UK lead by an unelected illegal immigrant Prime Minister. The country he hails from he’ll be jailed for all that he is doing in UK. Fact.
Why isn’t Palestine before the court for starting this?????????????
It’s a CLEAR STALL by BIDEN and others too allow this Killing…. What else is the Reason? Biden doesn’t see other people… if he did and eas Decent..He’d stop this.
Her comment about Israel facing a terrorist attack on Oct 7 just tells you she’s on Israel’s side. Her eyes aren’t blind , it’s her heart that is blind.
Аллах! Дай каждому по их поступкам Аминь
What is she talking about…this hearing is not about 7th October nor two state solution. It’s about occupation, illegal. She must sit down or go outside, she is in the wrong court😂
The people of Palestine and their land were part of the Ottoman Empire. This empire crashed at the end of the “Great War.” The League of Nations said people have the right of self-determination. Then came the British. The Brits ignored that principle and ruled over Palestine like it did over its colonies. Brutally. The Brits did not encourage or aid the Palestinian people in their quest for self-determination. Instead, the Brits allowed Zionists to flood the land and magnanimously decreed that Palestine was to be shared by the native Arab population and the Zionist interlopers. Without bothering to get the consent of the native population! They gave away land that was not theirs to give away. The Balfour Declaration was typical colonial hubris. Then the UN put its stamp on partition, again without asking the Palestinians how they feel about it. The US almost immediately recognized Israel after Ben-Gurion proclaimed the state of Israel. Israel should never have become a state in Palestinian territory. It has the trappings of legality, but it was founded on the basis of British colonial hubris that the Brits could simply go into a place and tell everyone this is how it’s going to go down. The Brits left Palestine in 1948 because they could not clean up the giant mess they made and left it up to the UN (“Not our problem any more. Good luck!).
The Urban Dictionary has added the term “israeled”. An example: You are sitting alone in a crowded restaurant. All tables are occupied. A man comes over and asks if he can sit with you at the table. Of course, you say, because you are friendly and polite. A short time later the man says to you, you must leave because his friends are coming to join him. You have been “israeled.”
Listen to the complicity being sidestepped… she is how you sidestep responsibility for complicity in genocide…
Stop supoorting this COLONIAL ELITEISM GENOCIDE
It’s not a T attack, it’s “self defense” granted by International Laws to gain freedom from a concentration camp. China specifically mentioned that law and twisting it around by the UK is completely inconsistent with International Laws and therefore it’s illegal..
You Are supporters of Genocide for 75+ Yrs in disguise of Democracy / Humanity.
Trust on, Just deceiver?
No phalistianian territory you United Kingdom government territory.
Why don’t they ever speak the truth. They don’t want to have the ‘problem’ back in the west
Multiple countries are involved in taking over global trade routes, they want to build a shipping canal through Gaza, they want the billions that belong to Palestinians that lies off the Gazan coast. It needs to be urgently brought up by the court!
It’s like they are just purposefully on ‘lag’, at this point. Like, what are they waiting for? For everyone to be dead in Gaza first, and the make a decision?!
“Grab ya pop corn and lets watch this act together. The outcome will always be in their favour, since they serve the same Masters. This act is just to show the naive public that ICJ still has a purpose. And the world leaders know this” said a wiseman
The British gave away Palestinian territory which was Not theirs to give. They are the creators of the problem as it was a long game ayed to create constant instability in the Middle East. Nothing will move them now to go back on their investment over 75 years. These unethical spokesmonsters for genocide are a stain on humanity.
What’s up with debates people are dropping like flies while you are busy yap yaping about who has to stop killing who and who has the right to live. Can’t the world just take action and stop debating about peoples lives? Like really is this what we came here for. For people to determine whether we are worthy of living or not? Where is God? Humans have lost it completely.
freedom justice for palestine
UK will soon be majority Muslim and then there will be shariah law in UK
International comic joke
Why do you continue calling Israeli Jewish citizens going back to their native land of Israel as illegal settlers yet you could not call the white communities in south African states and arab settlers in North Africa as settlers yet their origin is very clea my
The moment you start off talking about Hamas atrocities, and don’t mention Israel’s for the last 75yrs, you give away whose side you are on. And only mentioning certain UN resolutions but failing to mention the right of return resolution further underlines that bias. Two state solution is a non starter, one state solution is what’s effectively left, but the West won’t countenance that because it leaves Israeli Zionists outnumbered ( bare in mind there are a few non Zionist Jews and peace activists who support Palestinians, further exaggerating this outnumbering). The UK is trying to look reasonable by effectively espousing the status quo. Status quo=slow genocide and ethnic cleansing. Fails to mention that their friend doesn’t support two state solution. Typically sly from a now Israel dominated UK Foreign Office
UK government is a genocide supporter. We know you very well!
We the British people stands with the Palestinians.
We don’t trest British politics. You are lies and bubble stand. Shame on you
The devils advocate
UK lawyer seems to be only expert in technicalities or blame someone for shiffling their transcript.
If she doesn’t like the words used to describe what is happening in Gaza and the UK’s part in it. Perhaps they should put a stop to the ongoing genocide rather than be complicit in it.
75 years of occupation you not mentioning that
As a Christian South African indian I stand with my oppressed Arab Palestinian brothers and sisters❤
PALESTINA LIBRE YA 🇵🇸⚖️🇵🇸🕊🇵🇸🏳🌹💔
This Israel right wing government is taking us to a world 🌎 war 3
The Arabia world 🌎 needs to be honest to them self so that because the Jewish people can live with security guarantees for them
And for the Palestinian people as well because we are all one nation in this world 🌎
I pray for peace ✌️ 🙏.This is very sad
The fig leaf of morality ,the hypocrisy of the west whilst supplying arms to israel and basically giving them a free hand to commit more and more atrocities let the farce go on
Send in the international troops to separate Israelis & Palestinians, & to force a 2 state solution
It’s funny something that they now for sure it genocide in occupied land of Palestinian and they wasting time some of them taking nap During the talk shame 🤮
The British Governments over the years are to blame for the Armenian and the Palestinian misery. MAY GOD FEED THEM BACK THEIR MEDICINE
I wonder how they can speak with so much conviction about something so unjust…, and untrue!
evil
If the USA and Israel didn’t have money mines, they wouldn’t be fighting small countries today. Today, the USA and Israel are at war with smaller countries because of the abundance of dollars. The USA and ICJ are controlled and influenced by Israel. The USA and ICJ lost and bowed to Zionist Jew Rothschild’s money. The Rothschild family built Israel and the USA’s central Bank.
Pakistan member seems to be right, that’s these Judges are benefiting somehow by the long Isreal illiegal occupation
Free food for asians in 22 tramish! ❤
Sisi protecting his brother Bibi…. What a joke
Thats a lot of anecdotal nonsense
Blatant hypocrisy and lies disregarding the international law. Frankly, she lacks honesty and integrity of a lawyer. The UK is guilty of creating this Palestinian tragedy in the first place and now it is defending the indefensible. They are flying war planes from Cyprus to assist Israel in its genocide. It is common knowledge, even the Cypriot have denounced it. There are ongoing demonstrations in Cyprus because of this. If The International Court is the guardian of justice then they must find Israel the US and the UK to be guilty of genocide and in contempt of International law.
The U.K. naturally favours the ‘two – state solution.’
The U.K. is the partner in the Spanish /Gibraltar two state solution.
The U.K. is the other partner in the Northern Ireland/Eire two state solution.
The U.K. is the other partner in the Argentina/Malvinas two state solution.
I have been blocked many times by you tube for one little thing.
I commented that what Hitler did to the jews reminds me of what the jews are doing to Palestinians in gaza.
Is this hate speech? I am a American who says anything derogatory against Israel gets banned and erased. I call out the atrocities Israel has committed in the name of land grabing or settlement expansion and i get silenced. But hey its okay for Israel and all its allies to call for no Palestinian state.
My support for Palestine 🙏🏼❤️ from the USA. I believe in God Jesus Christ. This is not his work. Don’t listen to others this is the devils doing. God Bless you that are hurting physically mentally spiritually may God cover you with his loving arms, protect you and help you recover and bring peace inside and out. ❤️ In Jesus name amen.
Hamas bukan teroris…
No body wants to hear what these UK representative have to say …we already see on which side of the genocide they stand ..there is nothing more to say
Free Palestinian
ISRAHELL OCCUPATION DIDN’T START 7 OCTOBER IS STARTED 1967 THEN WORSENING TILL NOW UK AND USA HELPING ISRAEL TO CONTINUE ILLEGAL OCCUPATION AND APARTHEID SYSTEM..
Negotiations won’t work because the Jews don’t want any compromise
Having the rights of freedom and self determination should not be negotiable but a basic human right. Shame on the British government wanting to take this away from the international court and to a political platform so that they control the narrative.
How dare the UK ask the ICJ to decline to answer the request. The participating states are already on one side making the argument for Israel to be held accountable to the international law and what is wrong with that! The uK so called champion of human rights only for themselves not for the global south! It’s time UK had paid for the 75 years of Misery and loss of land and life in Reparations to the Palestinians! Just like the agreement between Israel and the Federal Republic of Germany to compensate the Jews for the Holocaust! It’s time the Arab world demands UK for an apology for breaking the treaty they signed with the Ottomans that they will not alter demographics of Palestine!
Israel/Jew grabbed the land of Palstenions and created Zoinest illegal state
Shameless behaviour from UK
Shame on this sold out woman
Shameless stance and double standards and this does represent the british people, at a personal level these individuals speaking should be ashamed and embarrassed and apologize for embarrassing the british nation, after seeing other nations dismiss UKs logic so easily , uk stating to allow israel to continue its illegal occupation as it might affect ongoing negotiations , such nonsense
