“World … to fight back against a real genocide” | Alex Lo, SCMP



Alex Lo in full-on rant mode. All wrong. Eg, from history and today:

Israel is not committing genocide.

Israel is not an apartheid state.

Israel is not a colonialist power.

"Mass cognitive dissonance" is believing Hamas are fine and Israel is evil. As do so many in the west, including Lo himself. It is this that's an "upside-down world"

Meantime: South Africa is not the best placed to take a case to the International Court of Justice. It's deeply corrupt; presidential candidate Julian Malema openly calls for "Kill the Boers", aka "Kill white pigs". Meantime the president of the ICJ, Nawaf Salam, is from Lebanon which is committing what the U.N. has called "war crimes": missiles attacking Israeli civilians. And this ICJ is the court that should judge Israel?
