UN Commissioner: ‘Apartheid’ not enough to describe Israeli settler colonialism

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
