00:00 In condemnation of the ongoing genocidal war of the Zionist occupation regime against Gaza,
00:05 worldwide support for the just Palestinian cause is growing.
00:09 The ongoing review by the International Court of Justice of the legality of the Israeli occupation
00:14 of the Palestinian territories, as well as the global, many global acts of solidarity
00:20 with the Palestinian people are evidence of this reality. Let's see.
00:26 Under the slogan "Stop the Aggression and Genocide of the Zionist Occupier"
00:30 and as part of a growing world solidarity with the Palestinian people,
00:33 Damascus hosted an act of support to the neighbors of Gaza against the Israeli war
00:40 of extermination they had been suffering for almost five months.
00:44 The ceremony was organized by the Palestinian forces residing in Syria
00:51 and was attended by representatives of the Syrian government
00:54 and the heads of numerous diplomatic missions
00:59 accredited in the Arab country, including the representation of Cuba, Venezuela and Iran.
01:04 The Palestinian people are a resilient people. They are great people who manage
01:12 with their firmness and audacity to humiliate the Israeli occupier and we, the Arab peoples,
01:17 including the Syrian people, express our full solidarity with them and praise their
01:21 firmness and ratify our readiness to support the struggle with money and with our lives,
01:26 the lives of our children and with everything we have.
01:28 In parallel, and as a result of this popular and governmental support for the just Palestinian
01:38 cause, the International Court of Justice is conducting a historical review of the legality
01:43 of the Israeli occupation of the Palestinian territories.
01:50 In a process requested by the United Nations General Assembly,
01:53 whose hearings end next Monday, February 26, and during which the court will examine the legal
01:59 consequences of the continued violation by the Israeli occupying entity of the Palestinian
02:07 people's right to self-determination and analyze the evidence presented by some 50 countries and
02:13 various organizations amid increasing pressure to halt Israel's genocidal war against Gaza.
02:18 The fact of expanding Israeli aggressions beyond the borders of Gaza and attempts to escalate
02:27 the tension in Syria and in other countries of the region should constitute an incentive to
02:31 activate the International Court of Justice and also the world community to condemn the Israeli
02:36 crimes and prosecute Israel not only for its crimes in Gaza but also in the whole of Palestine,
02:42 in Syria and in the whole region.
02:46 I believe that as long as the US continues to support Israel, the Israeli occupation will
02:50 continue to be able to evade all kinds of pressure, be it legal, popular or other pressures,
02:55 but at the same time, the fact of continuing with this pressure in the legal and popular aspects
03:00 will contribute to isolate Israel and also isolate the US administration for its misguided policy of
03:06 unconditionally supporting the Israeli occupation entity.
03:13 Meanwhile, popular marches of rejection and condemnation of the Zionist war of extermination
03:17 against Gaza continue in various capitals of the world,
03:20 including those countries which governments support the Israeli occupation regime.
03:26 A growing popular movement in favor of the Palestinian cause,
03:32 coupled with governmental action by many nations around the world,
03:35 is expected to help the Palestinians put an end to their suffering under occupation and recover
03:42 their usurped rights.
