WESTERN DOUBLE-STANDARDS AT UN
The International Court of Justice recently ruled in favour of South Africa in mandating Israel to ensure it takes measures to prevent genocide in Palestine, much to the West's chagrin. We look back to South Africa's Foreign Minister Naledi Pandor's comments regarding the West picking and choosing when to pay attention to African voices. Pandor argued that the war in Ukraine made people realise it's high time to re-think the veto at the UN Security Council - and give greater weight to the General Assembly.
In the months leading up to the ICJ decision, the West has granted Israel political, military and economic cover as it continues a slaughter campaign against Palestinians in Gaza. The US has vetoed multiple calls for a ceasefire at the UN, conducted hundreds of weapon delivery flights to the occupation, and approved $14.5 billion in additional funding on top of the $3.5 billion given to Israel monthly. Germany has also recently pledged 10,000 tank shells to be used against Palestinians fighting for their land.
Compare the active complicity in Israel's massacre and the willingness to abuse the West's position at the UN to support it to the wide range of measures imposed against Russia at the onset of Russo-Ukrainian hostilities. As always, your thoughts, please.
