DESCRIPTION:Join CODEPINK Congress for our Tuesday, January 16th Capitol Calling Party! 
 Hear productive and peaceful conversations, share resources and take 
 action!\n\nAs the International Court of Justice considers South Africa’s 
 case against Israeli genocide, CODEPINK explores the legal and political 
 implications of putting Israel on trial for genocide. Our guests will 
 debrief recent World Court hearings on South Africa’s case, discuss 
 statements from other countries–Bolivia, Venezuela, Cuba, Jordan, 
 Malaysia–in support of South Africa’s case and explore the impact on 
 the Biden administration should the court rule that Israel is guilty of 
 genocide.\n\nJoin us as international law expert Marjorie Cohn returns to 
 CODEPINK Congress, this time with scholar Adrienne Pine who is organizing 
 global support for countries to submit a Declaration of Intervention 
 (similar to a friend of the court brief) in support of South Africa at the 
 World Court. To date, over 1,000 organizations from far corners of the 
 globe have signed an open letter in support of South Africa’s case 
 charging Israel with 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 them water, food, medicine and fuel. 
 Since October 7th, Israel’s assault with US weapons has resulted in over 
 23,000 Gazans killed, over 53,000 wounded and nearly two million people 
 displaced as Israel, with US subsidies, turns Gaza into a graveyard for 
 children.\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2024/01/12/18861880.php
