The International Court of Justice, or the ICJ, which is the UN's highest court, has delivered an interim ruling last week on South Africa's case against Israel's offensive in Gaza. With an overwhelming majority, the court's 17-judge panel voted in favor of six emergency measures, ordering Israel to do everything in its power to prevent genocide in Gaza, among others. U.S. Secretary of State Anthony Blinken reaffirmed U.S. support for Israel and pointed out that the court did not support South Africa's request for an immediate ceasefire. In the global battle for hearts and minds on this issue, is the US-led West framing the ruling to suit their interests and narrative?
