A US federal judge in Oakland, California, rejected a lawsuit to stop US support for Israel based on a judicial precedent, but stressed that “the conclusive evidence before this court is consistent with the conclusions of the International Court of Justice.”
He added that evidence indicates that the Israeli army's treatment of Palestinians in Gaza may constitute genocide.
The judge believed that "it is the duty of every individual to confront the siege of Gaza, but the court must remain within the scope of its jurisdiction."
He added that the court calls on the defendants to "study the consequences of their steadfast support for the siege of the Palestinians in Gaza."
