ICJ ruling a major legal and moral blow to Israel: Bishara

Marwan Bishara, Al Jazeera’s senior political analyst, discussed the International Court of Justice, clarifying its role as a global court rather than a governing body. He emphasized the ICJ's lack of enforcement capabilities, highlighting the reliance on United Nations Security Council members for implementation.

Bishara acknowledged the historical limitations of ICJ rulings, citing the ongoing presence of the West Bank apartheid wall despite a 2004 judgment. While recognizing the recent ICJ ruling as a victory for South Africa, he pointed out its limited immediate impact on Gaza.

Anticipating consequences for the US in the UN Security Council, Bishara predicted that the ICJ's moral judgment on Israel for genocide could sway international support dynamics. He underscored the importance of plausible evidence of genocide, urging global pressure for a ceasefire and increased scrutiny on Israel.

Bishara provided concise insights into the ICJ's role, enforcement challenges, and the potential repercussions of its recent ruling in the broader international context.
