attended a UN session in Geneva called by Palestine. More than 120 countries
were represented. Murray spoke to several delegates about why no country has
submitted the matter of Israel's genocide to the ICJ.
"The answer is now clear to me," Murray wrote. "It is not that people are
worried that a claim of genocide will not be successful at the International
Court of Justice. It is that everybody is quite sure it will succeed."
A World Court Finding of Genocide Would Bind the ICC
"The problem is that once the ICJ has determined that this is a genocide, it
follows that not only are [Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu and
hundreds of senior Israeli officials and military personally liable," according
to Murray. "[B.]ut it is absolutely plain that 'Genocide Joe' Biden, [U.K. Prime
Minister Rishi] Sunak and members of their administrations are also criminally
liable for complicity, having provided military support for the genocide."
Murray added, "The International Criminal Court cannot ignore a judgment of
genocide from the International Court of Justice and will have no choice but to
issue arrest warrants."
