Joe Biden’s trip to the Middle East has come and gone. Biden dropped in on Israeli and Palestinian leaders, then flew to Saudi Arabia for the top of his agenda—getting the Saudis to pump more oil, countering Russia and China’s challenge to US hegemony in the region, and uniting Arabs and Israelis against archenemy Iran. Israel’s permanent subjugation of 5 million Palestinians did not come up. Accountability for the murder of Palestinian-American journalist Shireen Abu Akleh was soft-pedaled. Against the backdrop of US indifference on these and other human rights matters, a handful of international bodies are taking a much closer look, and building a legal case. One of them, the Independent International Commission of Inquiry, has just issued its first report on the root causes of violence in Palestine in May 2021, triggered by the imminent eviction of Palestinian families from their homes, and the police attack on worshippers at the Al-Aqsa Mosque which killed nearly three hundred Palestinians, including 66 children, and thirteen Israelis. Independent journalist David Kattenburg interviews Miloon Kothari, a former UN Human Rights Commissioner and one of the three members of the International Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory.

David Kattenburg is a university science instructor and radio/web journalist based in Breda, North Brabant, the Netherlands.

  1. Hey Dave. What's happening? I'm back off to the Gulf in a couple of weeks, first time in near 4 years. >> but to an island just across the sea border where Foxy Lady did not quite reach. Take care, brother, paul

  2. UN, UNHRC nothing but lies 🤡 you cannot "occupy" your own land the only people guilty of apartheid is Fakestine. You should call this channel the real antisemitic channel

  3. israel has been the most ruthless illegal colonial apartheid which must not exist!! it must be ENDED immed. And for ever!!

  4. UN MUST END israel ILLEGAL COLONIAL APARTHEID AS IT HAS ESTABLISHED THE MOST RUTHLESS ILLEGAL COLONIAL APARTHEID!!

  5. “A legal case?” Jajajajajaja, really? Jajajajajajajajaja!! The point is that there is no “law” for the Palestinians, just tyranny! Let’s “sue” Isr*@l, might help. 🤷🏿‍♂️

  6. Actions speak louder then words. The reports should be published by all mainstream media. Let justice be done.

  7. I'm so sick and tired of such pussyfooting.
    Apartheid in isrealhell is systematic. But unlike apartheid S. Africa, it does not need the exploitation, and therefore presence of those victims to exist.
    It rather needs continuing ethnic, "cleansing", and therefore on slow motion genocide, to maintain its artificial zio-racist, imitation of democracy, which it needs to exist.
    Therefore, much more than an apartheid state, it's a genocidal state.
    And therefore it has no legitimacy, never has, and never can, for as long as it remains a genocidal state, owing a debt, to its victims

  8. The word is genocide and all those muslim and christian states that do business with the Israeli fascists while their own people are massacred deserve to burn in Hell, and they will.

  9. Israel has no right to exist. Period. It kills Palestinian chilldren as a policy. Israel sees the birth of Palestinian chilldren as demographic threat. Israel has a permanent policy of genocide called " mow the lawn". Israel has acknowledged that it used to do illegal organ harvesting from Palestinian bodies after denying it for years

  10. US Congress & Senate must be made personally responsible for their humanitarian crimes against Palestinians They have consistently voted to give Israel $ & support while personally benefitting from Israeli govt & lobby support for themselves

  11. I volunteer to be in the posse that rounds up our domestic terrorist like Cheney Bush Clinton's Biden Zuckerberg ect. World court prosecutions might help raise the US reputation which is in the tank.

  12. Wester countries point to Xinjiang but failure in Palestine where evidence are so blatantly clear, begs the lie the Western hypocrisy on human rights. The UN needs to examine their own membership while bleeding monetarily the world wealth. I'm skeptical the UN is really what it claims. It's an institution where some "experts" get a career.

  13. Are people in the UN paid for their "jobs"? Doesn't dragging their feet for decades tend to amount to abrogation of their duties. People are getting paid for work that doesn't result in tangible results that bring relief to those suffering from injustice, as defined by the UN. The UN is really impotent as an instrument of justice like the League of Nations. Ended in WWII. Now will end in WWIII. Bye2 human species. Maybe we deserve it.
