Al Jazeera journalist questions US official on Gaza ‘genocide’
Here is the moment Al Jazeera’s Kimberly Halkett challenged US National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan on why he does not believe Israel is committing genocide in Gaza:
He refuses to answer. And the US 'defense' for Israel on genocide at the ICJ was about whether the ICJ should have jurisdiction, that South Africa misunderstood the intent part of Israel uttered by the right wing government, that the IDF is doing everything they can to limit civilian casualties and that Hamas started it on Oct 7, Israel has the right to self-defense.
It's all on record:

Ben-Gvir: Israel must return to the Gaza Strip
Israel’s far-right national security minister’s comments came during a speech at a rally for the resettlement of the Gaza Strip in Sderot, Israel.
“So that the problem [of Gaza] does not return, two things must be done: return to the Gaza Strip and encourage the voluntary departure of the residents of Gaza. This is moral, rational and humanitarian,” he said.
Ben-Gvir then took aim at the allowance of aid into the Strip, which Israel’s closest allies have demanded Israel expand.
“I am ashamed that I am the only one in the cabinet who voted against the transfer of shipments to Gaza through Kerem Shalom (Karen Abu Salem aid crossing). Do you want humanitarianism? Return the abductees.”
Qatari PM warns of regional radicalisation with no post-war plan
Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani has warned that even should the continuing war in Gaza stop, with no clear rescue plan for the besieged coastal enclave there is a risk of growing radicalisation in the medium term.
“We are very much worried after all these images to see another wave of radicalisation. So security is the key for us in the region. We need to preserve it as much as possible,” he said at the Qatar Economic Forum in Doha.
