Germany is getting sued for genocide complicity by Nicaragua

THE HAGUE, March 1 (Reuters) - Nicaragua has filed a case at the International Court of Justice against Germany for giving financial and military aid to Israel and for defunding the U.N. Palestinian refugee agency (UNRWA), the U.N.'s top court said on Friday.

Nicaragua asked the ICJ, also known as the World Court, to issue emergency measures requiring Berlin to stop its military aid to Israel and reverse its decision to stop funding UNRWA.

The German Foreign Ministry did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The court usually sets a date for a hearing on any requested emergency measures within weeks of a case being filed.

According to Nicaragua's claim, Germany is violating the 1948 Genocide Convention and the 1949 Geneva Conventions on the laws of war in the occupied Palestinian territories.

"By sending military equipment and now defunding UNRWA which provides essential support to the civilian population, Germany is facilitating the commission of genocide," Nicaragua said in its legal filings.

Major donors to UNRWA, including the United States and Germany, suspended funding after allegations that around 12 of its tens of thousands of Palestinian employees were suspected of involvement in the Oct. 7 attacks in Israel by Hamas.

Nicaragua's filing adds that emergency measures were needed because of Berlin's "participation in the ongoing plausible genocide and serious breaches of international humanitarian law" in the Gaza Strip.

This claim builds on the case South Africa brought against Israel for allegedly committing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza.

Last month the ICJ said South Africa's claims that Israel violated the genocide convention were not implausible and ordered emergency measures, including a call for Israel to halt any potential acts of genocide in Gaza.

Israel has denied allegations of genocide and said it has the right to defend itself.

Under the genocide treaty countries not only agree not to commit genocide but also to the prevent and punish any possible genocide. It also makes complicity in genocide and attempting a genocide a violation of the treaty.

Germany is one of the largest arms exporters to Israel together with the United States, according to U.N. experts.

Way back in 2013 our friends at @GnarTapes asked if we wanted to co-release their reissue of DJ Kid Slizzard’s “For The Weed Smokers” cassette mix featuring a buncha songs about smoking weed from a buncha 90s underground rappers. The whole compilation is one of those “on-repeat” tapes and we listened to it a million times. It turned us on to SO many new artists that I wanted to explore more of, so I took each song from the comp and looked it up on @Spotify. The end result was a 50 hour playlist of all the songs I could find and all of the Related Artists from the 90s and 2000s. I hit random and a couple hours later came across this song called “Frosty” featuring @IITone, @MacMontese and #LordInfamous of #ThreeSixMafia. Immediately got goosebumps from it (cause it was so fucking evil sounding) and every other song on the “Welcome To The Darkside Vol. 1” album put out by @BlackRainEnt outta Memphis. I looked them up, sent an email and asked if they’d want to put out a tape on #BurgerRecords. They were down and we ended up becoming friends. Out of that friendship came a buncha Black Rain/Burger collab cassettes and pretty soon II Tone was coming out to vacation in So Cal every once in awhile. When he did we’d hang out and one of those times I brought up the Kid Slizzard compilation. He recognized a lot of the groups on it but the one that stood out to him was HIS OWN! Back in 1995, II Tone was a teenager in Memphis and was in Magnolia Street’s Da Crime Click. They had a song called “Smoke A Blunt Or Somethin’” that had become a staple within the halls of Burger and my mind was blown that II Tone was in a group I’d been singing along to for years. Come 2020 and we teamed up with Black Rain Entertainment to release @DaCrimeClick’s debut album “Million Wayz 2 Murda” on vinyl for the FIRST TIME ever! It was a HOT HIT and sold out before the release date so we put in for a repress on BLOOD RED VINYL and TODAY is the day we make it available to YOU!!! Only 300 LPs repressed of this super killer record so get one now or forever hold your peace!!! ✌️ (at BURGER RECORDS FULLERTON) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-dtrH7HtDd/?igshid=ktd29mkaaw3l
