9 months agoHer dissenting opinion is here. It’s quite thorough, and while reasonable people could disagree on each point (myself included), I didn’t find anything overtly biased in her analysis. Paragraphs 22 - 30 are the bulk of her analysis. Chiefly she cited 3 concerns:
- without Hamas as a party, she didn’t see how any order could be complied with without Israel unilaterally withdrawing and being forced to accept subsequent attacks
- most requested orders amounted to “follow IHL”, which Israel is already bound to order or no order
- she believes SA is conflating Hamas and Palestinian civilians in several key arguments
Yes, if a dog attacks you can shoot it. That’s true pretty much everywhere.
Why in the fuck is this considered world news?
