    'The continued denial of [the designation of genocide] by states, international organizations and legal and scholarly experts will cause unmitigated damage not just to the people of Gaza and Israel but also to the system of international law established in the wake of the horrors of the Holocaust, designed to prevent such atrocities from happening ever again. It is a threat to the very foundations of the moral order on which we all depend.'

    Pish, there never was a 'moral order' and the states that won WW2 have continued to perpetrate genocidal actions left right & centre with not a peep from the international lawyers or courts. Which is why in the majority world the ICC is referred to as the 'International Caucasian Court' - eg: https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2016/10/26/gambia-withdraws-from-international-criminal-court/ Everyone knows it's mafia justice and the biggest criminals never get brought to book, because they own these institutions, and use them as tools to further their own geopolitical aims.

    Anyway, I'll stop there before I put myself into a worse mood...

    cheers,
    I
