"The first genocide in history where its victims are broadcasting their own destruction in real time in the desperate, so far vain hope that the world might do something." Blinne Ni Ghralaigh at the ICJ in the Hague

This clip of South Africa’s foreign minister Naledi Pandor is well worth watching to understand how the SA govt sees the ICJ case.

No words

New piece on Zone of Interest: the speech, the lies, most of all, Glazer's harrowing warning about how genocide can become "ambient." This is what feels most contemporary, most of this terrible moment, about Glazer’s staggering film. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
