Israel-Hamas war: “There is no genocide” in Gaza, Israel argues to world court | LiveNOW from FOX

Published 2024-05-17
Israel responded Friday in front of the International Court of Justice as South Africa urges the world court to stop a full-scale operation in Rafah. During the arguments, Israel responded and said there is a "tragic war" in Gaza, but "there is no genocide."

Israeli attorney, Gilad Noam told the justices in part that Israel had not conducted its wide-scale operation in Rafah because the IDF is taking extra precautions to keep civilians safe.

Alex Traiman, the CEO and Jerusalem Bureau Chief at Jewish News Syndicate joined LiveNOW from FOX's Josh Breslow to discuss the latest developments amid the Israel-Hamas war.

  • Sadly more people die in South Africa daily than die in Gaza. Surely if Hamas is found to be playing with the death toll ratios the matter should simply be dismissed. South Africa is a state in chaos.
  • @nadianelson5731
    South Africa is clueless, I can say it as I live there (here) Please note this is the ANC's opinion and not the majority of South African's
  • If that is genocide, Israel the world's worst at it, flyers, text messages, phone calls, etc, etc....
  • @Wiseman-ok9ch

  • @califhvac1
    Israel has all rights to go after Hamas who killed their civilians.
  • @JdjKk-oo3wg
    He nazis said the same thing: "We didnt do anything"
  • @testedtrue7693
    If you want to talk genocide talk about USA first invasion of iraq called protecting Kuwait when they bombed shelter with over 400 women and children. All killed. Not even an apology. That is only one bomb
  • @sjenkins91812
    If there is no genocide then why did aid workers get shot in the flour massacre? Why are their own hostages waving white flags getting gunned down? Every hospital in gaza has been bombed or raided and the death toll is over 30,000, compared to Israel's 1,600. The IDF itself claiming in December that it was unaliving two civilians for every hamas fighter and treating that as a positive.
  • @rightman711
    Let's also not forget that apart from hiding behind civilians, Hamas combatants also disguise as civilians, do not wear uniforms or any kind of external identification, making it even more difficult to tell from civilian and combatant casualties.
  • @starter47990
    The notion of "genocide" is actually ridiculous
  • @nostro1001
    Why are the main leaders of Hamas all billionaires? I'm still unable to determine what successful business these people run!

  • @user-cb8ns2bg4n
    Just like all of you saying there was not genocide in Israel??? When are they going to hold those accountable for the torture, rape and murder of the Israeli people? When are they going to do something about the 250 something Israeli's kidnapped and taken captive? We know that the Hostages have been raped & tortured - not fed or given needed medicine. When are they going to command the Hostages to be released??
