Smotrich slams South Africa’s genocide case as ‘hypocritical debate’
Israel’s far-right Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich says the case brought forward by South Africa in The Hague, alleging genocide carried out by Israel, is hypocritical.
“The Hague Court, like other international tribunals, are political bodies plagued with anti-semitism and are exposed time and time again in stunning shows of hypocrisy,” he said.
“The countries that sent the judges to the Hague are being exposed today in all their hypocrisy. Somalia, Uganda, Lebanon and other countries that ‘care’ for the people of Gaza – all you need to do to assist them is to open the gates of your countries, allow those who want to get out of Hamas prison in Gaza and take them in your countries.”
