Naledi Pandor on the fight to isolate Israel Submitted by Ashfaaq Carim on Thu, 11/14/2024 - 12:35 Earlier this year, South Africa took the unprecedented step of asking the International Court of Justice (ICJ) to rule whether Israel's brutal military assault and starvation campaign in Gaza amounted to genocide. In this episode of UNAPOLOGETIC, Pandor, who served as South Africa's former minister of international relations until June 2024, discusses why her country took Israel to court. We discuss why the international community has watched on as widespread abuses have been committed against the Palestinians, what can be done to stop Israel, and whether international institutions will break down under a new Trump presidency.
