THE TIME FOR CONCERTED ACTION TO PREVENT GENOCIDE IS NOW!
January 4, 2024This address to the United Nations panel on the Holocaust, Genocide, and Mass Violence, by Mr. Raz Segal, in early December outlined the joint statement presented by 56 scholars, all experts on genocide, who confirmed that Israel IS COMMITTING GENOCIDE against the Palestinians. He also emphasizes the urgency of the UN acting to prevent further killings of the Palestinians.
“The time for concerted action to prevent genocide is now,” Mr Raz Segal, Associate Professor of Holocaust and Genocide Studies.
No doubt this will be powerful testimony that should be presented to the International Court of Justice on January 11, when Israel will be forced to defend its illegal, immoral and inhumane against the civilians of Gaza since October 8 leading to the deaths of more than 22,000 babies, children, women and men and injuring more than 57,000 others.

English Script:
Reporter: Democratic presidential candidate Joseph Biden today faces a controversy, three weeks ago at a debate at the Iowa State Fair, he used phrases identical to those delivered by British Labor Party leader Neil Kennick.
VO: Biden seemed to be claiming Kennick’s vision and life as his own.
Biden: Why is it that my wife is sitting out there in the audience, is the first in her family to ever go to college?
Neil Kennick: Why is Janice the first woman in her family in a thousand generations to be able to get to university?
Biden: My ancestors who worked in the coal mines in northeast Pennsylvania didn’t come up after 12 hours and play football.
Neil Kennick: 8 hours underground and then come up and play football.
Biden: It’s because they didn’t have a platform upon which to stand.
Neil Kennick: There was no platform upon which they could stand.
Biden: The notion that every thought or notion or idea you’d have to go back and find in a tribute to someone, I think is quite frankly, ludicrous.
Reporter: The problem here is that Senator Biden told his audience he’d just been thinking about these things and he failed to give any credit at all to his famous British speechwriter.
Reporter 2: You know, I was thinking on the way over here, now that’s a little too much, because as you point out, what’s behind the words, what’s there? And a lot of people, rap on Biden has always been that that’s just a surface.
Biden: I should have said, to paraphrase Neil Kinnock, the only time I didn’t, in all the times I’ve ever used it.
Reporter: But CBS News found a tape of a second instance.
VO: It reappeared in the New York Times with a new charge that Biden had appropriated a famous litany from the late Robert Kennedy about what the gross national product cannot measure.
Biden: It cannot measure the health of our children.
Robert Kennedy: The health of our children.
Biden: The quality of our education.
Robert Kennedy: The quality of their education.
Biden: The joy of their play.
Robert Kennedy: Or the joy of their play.
VO: Biden gave Kennedy no credit. He’s also quoted or paraphrased John Kennedy, Hubert Humphrey and British Labor Party leader Neil Kennick all without credit.
Reporter: Joseph Biden admitted today that he committed plagiarism when he was in law school. He said it was a mistake, but that it was unintentional. He quoted five pages of someone else’s work without proper citation.
Biden: I’ve done some dumb things now. I’ll do dumb things again.
VO: He was given an F.
Biden: Ladies and gentlemen, I’ve been dumb.
VO: To the political community in Washington, it all seems of a piece. Plagiarism at law school, plagiarism on the stump.
Reporter: The great communicator, strike that, the great imitator. You don’t steal verbatim or when you do as he did, 99% of the time you give credit.
VO: Biden’s critics say he sells himself as a man whose words and visions can inspire a new generation in politics. But if the thoughts, phrases and visions really belong to others, it’s a form of false advertising.
Reporter: Is it a wise idea, though, to take something that personal anyway from another politician and try and appropriate it to your own campaign?
Man: I think it was a stupid thing to appropriate material that was really very personal that was someone else’s.
Woman: Most people didn’t know who he was. You know, Joe Biden. And now they’re going to say, oh, yeah, he’s the guy who plagiarized a lot of papers. Politically, that’s devastating. These clips are devastating. He looks like a Joe Biden wind up doll with somebody else’s words coming out.
Man: If they’re going to do things that are stupid as well as immoral, then they’re probably too dumb to have the job of president.
Man: Voters are going to have to decide whether he was dishonest or dumb. Senator Joseph Biden may have more explaining to do. The new question stemmed from a taped remarks of Biden during an April campaign appearance in New Hampshire.
Biden: I went to law school on a full academic scholarship. The only one in my in my class to have a full academic scholarship. Went back to law school and in fact, ended up in the top half of my class. I was the outstanding student in the political science department at the end of my year. I graduated with three degrees from undergraduate school with 165 credits, only 123 credits.
Reporter: Biden now concedes he did not graduate in the top half of his law school class, that he does not have three degrees from college and that he was not named outstanding political science student in college. Newsweek says Biden actually went to school on a half scholarship, ended up near the bottom of his class and won only one degree, not three. Joe Biden ranked 76th in the class of 85 at the University of Syracuse Law School. I mean, this guy comes off this whole thing as a flyweight.
Reporter: Now, Biden says Newsweek is right. His memory had failed him.
Biden: And I’d be delighted to sit down and compare my IQ to yours if you’d like.
Man: Joe Biden was victimized by the truth.
Eleanor: Bye bye, Biden. He may not know it yet, but I think this is going to be very difficult for him to recover.
Interviewer: Is Joe Biden dead meat, yes or no?
Interviewee: I think so
Interviewer: Bob?
Bob: Terminal condition, terminal.
Interviewer: Eleanor?
Eleanor: Yes. Unless he comes in third in Iowa.
Interviewer: Morson?
Morson: More time dying.
Interviewer: I say dead. Will be right back.
