Ongoing Genocide against the Palestinians by Apartheid Israel, and Drs. Nimer Sultany & Noura Erakat on "Law and the Genocide"
 
In this episode of Arab Voices (# 1,112), we will continue to talk about the ongoing horrific genocide, war crimes, and ethnic cleansing committed by Apartheid Israel against the Palestinians, armed, supported, and funded by the United States government using US tax payers’ money. A genocide that since October 7, 2023, has killed over 35,000 Palestinians (mostly women and children), injured more than 78,000, and left most of the Gaza Strip destroyed! Over 11,000 Palestinians are missing and presumed killed under the rubble.
