We have a very full program today. South Africa has begun its prosecution of Israel for Genocide in the International Court of Justice in The Hague, Netherlands. Today we focus on the opening arguments outlining its case We begin with Blinne Ní Ghrálaigh, an Irish lawyer on South Africa's legal team. She presents the case for why Israel's actions in Gaza meet the standards for genocide. Next, we present a summary and analysis of those opening arguments by former Federal Judge Andrew Napolitano, speaking with Columbia University professor Jeffrey Sachs.
