The actual experts on genocide, who taught us analytical clarity, have spoken up for months against the genocide (@martinshawx, Raz Segal, William Schabas, John Quigley, and recently Omer Bartov). But the @NewLeftReview are unable to educate themselves and take a stand.
Countries that experienced genocide say this is a genocide, but the @NewLeftReview are unable to educate themselves and take a stand, they are waiting for "analytical clarity" to descend upon them:
Do not be that kind of "new left", and instead educate yourself and read @martinshawx's two books: "What is Genocide", and "War and Genocide".
Read John Quigley: "No intent alternative to that of destruction was apparent. South Africa’s claims against Israel present a “conditions of life” situation like none the International Court of Justice has seen."

Read Jinan Bastaki: on forced displacement and genocide: ejiltalk.org/gaza-forced-di…
And, finally, read South Africa's UN Security Council submission on genocidal intent:
I guess this is still relevant opiniojuris.org/2024/05/07/on-…
This article from December 2023, shows that while some experts like Omer Bartov waited for 10 months to "see Genocide" in Gaza, many others saw clearly from the beginning:

1. Former Sunday Times journalist Michael Prescott produced a memo on the BBC that rehashes debunked pro-Israeli claims. It is surprising therefore that the BBC is taking it seriously.

Four comments on Prescott's memo: 🧵
2. FIRST, Prescott rehashes the debunked pro-Israeli claim that in mid 2024 the UN lowered or halved the number of women and children killed in Gaza. Image
3. Yet as the UN confirmed and media outlets like Newsweek and Al-Jazeera double-checked. This was simply incorrect and a misrepresentation. Here is Aljazeera report of UN comments: aljazeera.com/news/2024/5/14…Image

"We're interested in emptying Gaza first"

"In the 1960s/1970s, left-wing governments of Israel proposed plans to 'thin' the population of the Gaza Strip. A perusal of the minutes of meetings reveals that their ideas don't differ much from those of today's far-right government" Image

Israeli universities seem surprised by the increasing global boycott of Israeli academia. Here is a brief list that shows how embedded Israeli academia in the military industrial complex: 🧵

A new report by the UN Special Committee:

1. "Given the developments during the reporting period, the Special Committee is ever more convinced that the world is witnessing genocide in Gaza" ohchr.org/en/documents/t…
2. "Committee is shocked by the extent of land confiscation, targeting of communities, separation of families, demolitions, forced evictions, killings, physical abuse and other tactics employed... to push Palestinian communities from their lands and homes" in the West Bank Image
3. "Special Committee has received disturbing briefings on the systematic and widespread perpetration of sexual and gender-based violence, torture and other forms of cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment inflicted on Palestinian detainees by Israeli military and security forces" Image

1. The Trump - Netanyahu plan should be opposed and rejected. It offers the Palestinians a choice between colonial apartheid and occupation, at best, and gives a cover for the continuation of the genocide, at worst. 1/24 🧵
2. This is a unilateral, one-sided plan, that is delivered as an ultimatum. Therefore it would effectively justify the continuation and completion of the genocide. Either because Hamas will be cornered to reject it or because Israel will violate it.
3. Israel has a track record of violating agreements (no withdrawal from Lebanon after Nov 2024 agreement; violating cease fire agreement in March 2025; no lifting of blockade despite release of a hostage in May 2025).

The Commission recommends that all Member States: Employ all means reasonably available to them to prevent the commission of genocide in the Gaza Strip; Image
