We can Hold Israel ACCOUNTABLE?: Invoke the GENOCIDE CONVENTION NOW (w/ Sam Husseini)

You know him from his viral questions posed to the heart of empire (eg, state department press briefings), but independent journalist Sam Husseini has much more to say than what’s allowed in adversarial press briefings. On todays show, he argues that activists should focus on pressuring governments that are already willing to acknowledge Israel’s genocide in Gaza to invoke the genocide convention so the International Court of Justice can hold Israel accountable for its crimes. Why haven’t any countries sympathetic to Palestine who are party to the genocide convention done this— even Palestine itself? Sam also unpacks a theory about RFK Jr’s commitment to Zionism and it’s possible relationship to his uncle and fathers’ assassination.
