DESCRIPTION:As millions across the world protest Israel’s collective punishment of 
 Gaza, CODEPINK joins efforts to hold Israel accountable under international 
 law for genocide.\n\nJoin us as we host international law attorneys to 
 discuss next steps at the International Criminal Court (ICC), which has 
 jurisdiction to prosecute criminal cases. We will also discuss possible 
 overtures to the International Court of Justice, which hears civil cases 
 between parties, and efforts to hold President Biden, Secretary of State 
 Blinken and Secretary of Defense Austin accountable for aiding and abetting 
 genocide..\n\nUnder the UN Convention for the Prevention and Punishment of 
 Genocide and Article 6 of the Rome Statute, the crime of genocide occurs 
 when a nation deliberately inflicts on the group “conditions of life 
 calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part.” 
 \n\nUnder these terms, Israel commits US-funded genocide in Gaza when it 
 bombs civilian targets-hospitals, schools, UN refugee centers, journalists, 
 UN workers, mosques, apartments and escape routes– while denying an 
 imprisoned population water, food, medicine and fuel. Since October 7th, 
 Israel’s assault with US weapons has resulted in tens of thousands of 
 Gazans killed or wounded and 1.7 million people displaced, including almost 
 a million in 154 UNRWA shelters, some of which Israel has bombed. In the 
 words of UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres, “Gaza has become a 
 graveyard for children.”\n\nDemand Israel be put on trial for genocide! 
 \n\nSupport legal efforts to STOP Biden from aiding & abetting genocide!\n
