In case you missed, here is the full video of Prof. Malcolm Shaw's masterful display in international law and meticulous take-down of #SouthAfrica's case at #ICJ, during his submission on behalf of #Israel.

Israeli journalist @yanircozin asked the head of the Southern African Department of International Law whether his country defines Hamas as a terrorist organization. His answer? “We do not define it as a terrorist organization since it does not operate in our territory, so no." Despicable.

“The end of the Second World War prevented Hitler from fully implementing his genocidal plan to eliminate Jews. And the world signed the Genocide Convention 75 years ago to make sure it never happened to anyone else. Now, we find ourselves in the perverse situation where a genocidal organization such as Hamas is able to escape legal scrutiny or sanction for committing genocidal acts, while the country that is the intended target of its genocidal intentions is being called upon by the International Court of Justice to defend itself from allegations of genocide.” An important piece by Rosalie Silberman Abella, the Samuel and Judith Pisar Visiting Professor of Law at Harvard Law School and a former justice of the Supreme Court of Canada. 🔗 theglobeandmail.com/opinion/…

Want to see how historical truth doesn't matter in todays world - take a look... A few basic facts. 1. Hebron is one of the Judaism's holiest cities. 2. Jews have lived in Hebron since forever. 3. In 1929 the Jewish community was massacred. 4. In the 1930s the remaining community was expelled 5. From 1948 Arab forces destroyed Jewish sites 6. Between 1949 and 1967 the city was closed to Jews and they could not even pray there. 6. In 1967 with Israel's victory in the war Jews began to return to live in the city. Today: Jews living in Hebron are presented as invaders & foreigners. Jews living there are potrayed as the troublemakers - and international media will almost always suggest that Jews live their illegally. Why not just reward those that massacred and ethnically cleansed the Jews by completely ignoring the crimes of the Arabs and also whitewashing Jews out of Hebron's history?

🧵IDF soldiers broke protocols tragically killing hostages with white flags. Key question is why soldiers may have thought they were a threat? Because of at least TEN Hamas war crimes which greatly impact IDF actions, especially in Shejaiya where this occurred. Here they are: 1/

The depth of anti-Jewish and anti-Israel indoctrination is hard to overstate. Among young adults: 31% reject Israel’s right to exist. 50% support Hamas over Israel. 53% feel students should be free to call for a genocide of Jews. 60% think October 7th can be justified by Palestinian grievances. 67% think Jews are oppressors. harvardharrispoll.com/wp-con…

Itay and Maya Regev, who were kidnapped by Hamas and are now recovering in Israel, endured horrific levels of torture and abuse. Itay who was shot in the hip said Hamas operated him while he was in full conscious as form of abuse. His sister Mia who was shot in her leg, had her feet operated on and re-connected upside down by the terror group. In the Israeli hospitals the medical team has revered the damaged Hamas sadistic terrorists caused them.

BREAKING: Yesterday, at 3:59 PM, Hamas terrorists fired 12 rockets into Israel, specifically into the city of Beer Sheva. The launch site of those rockets? Right in the heart of where Israel and others have sent humanitarian aid. Israel helped Gazans temporarily evacuate northern Gaza and set up tents for them in the south, something no army has ever done in the history of war. Hamas, as Hamas does used that specific area to fire rockets right next to those tents. 12 rockets. I guess I don’t need to tell you why they did that. Can you imagine the headlines? “Israel evacuates Gazans and sends humanitarian aid, then proceeds to bomb the area to which they evacuated them.” That was Hamas’ strategy. This is Hamas and it’s time the world understood that and stopped reporting their propaganda like a puppet. This is yet another sick immoral tactic Hamas used to kill innocent civilians, this time, their own.

A must watch: A Gazan woman surprises Al Jazeera reporter and tells him that Hamas is taking all the humanitarian aid to its terrorists in the tunnels. The reporter tries to convince her otherwise but she continues to attack Hamas. @MOhadIsrael

"On October 7th, Israel was attacked. Since October 7th, American Jews have been under attack." Do yourselves a favor and watch this jaw-dropping speech. With students like this, the future of our people is bright.

75% of Palestinians support Hamas' October 7th massacre. Only 13% oppose it. It's not about “a few bad apples”, unfortunately.

When it comes to condemning the terrorism of Hamas, we in public office must speak with clarity rather than with caveats. This is not about politics. It is about decency. It is indecent to deny, downplay, or “both sides” the rape and sexual violence perpetrated against Israeli women on October 7th.

During the October 7 massacre, Hamas raped and sexually abused Israeli women and girls. These were not decisions the terrorists made at the scene of the massacre. The sex crimes were planned in advance by Hamas to instill terror and fear among families in Israel. This is the enemy that Israel is fighting against. An enemy who sees rape as a legitimate tool in its war to destroy Israel. And the @UN is still silent and chooses not to condemn the atrocities. Disgraceful! Watch and retweet >>

South of the Gaza Strip: Gaza residents ambush the aid trucks entering from the Rafah crossing to get food and water before they reach the Red Crescent warehouses (where they claim they are distributed only to close associates). Armed Hamas operatives shoot at Gaza residents to keep them away and they throw stones at them..

Hamas went on a PR offensive today. It seems that leading international media outlets finally revealing details of its heinous crimes against humanity, especially the rape of Israeli women, has the terror organization worried for its image. What Hamas did on Oct 7 is undeniable (though many of its supporters have tried). No amount of PR can make up for the fact that Hamas is a genocidal terrorist organization and the face of true evil. #Hamas_is_ISIS
