‘We’re getting ready to a fascist dictatorship,’ Knesset member Ofer Cassif tells Marc Lamont Hill.
Over the previous 5 months, Israel’s warfare on Gaza has precipitated mass devastation and led to greater than 30,000 deaths.
In January, the Worldwide Courtroom of Justice (ICJ) in The Hague discovered that there was a believable danger that Israel could also be committing genocide.
Whereas the ICJ case has been met with opposition from Israel’s political class, there have been those that have voiced help. Israeli parliament member Ofer Cassif has been an outspoken supporter of the ICJ procedures – a place that resulted in a failed try and expel him from Israel’s legislature, the Knesset, final week.
