Israel’s clumsy counter-propaganda campaign at the Hague continues. A lot of the stuff they’re doing (showing off blown up busses) is macabre and amateurish, but this struck me:
The ICJ has rejected the request of terror attack victims to participate in the hearings, Israel Radio reported Saturday. The Court said the victims do not represent a state.
Maybe I missed a memo, but that Palestinians don’t have a state yet either, do they? Have we really gone so far that now the world-as-the-Left-wants-it-to-be has replaced the world-as-it-actually-is for the purposes of international law?
See what you think:
The World-As-the-Left-Wants-It-To-Be: International law is a neutral juridical norm that dispassionately decides issues of fact and law exclusively between states and not, say, whatever cause celebre has captured the Left’s attention that week)
The World-As-It-Actually-Is:
Palestinian delegates in The Hague on Saturday took part in lectures arranged by European non-government organizations
