Joe Lauria gives us a good summary of the Israel genocide case in Gaza: Lowe also dismissed the mantra repeated by Israel and its allies, that it has “a right to self-defense” in Gaza. He referred to a 2004 World Court decision against the legality of Israel’s wall, which is built on occupied Palestinian territory. 喬·勞裡亞（Joe Lauria）為我們很好地總結了以色列在加薩的種族滅絕案件：洛也駁斥了以色列及其盟友反覆強調的以色列在加薩擁有「自衛權」的說法。 他提到了 2004 年世界法院對以色列在巴勒斯坦被佔領土上建造隔離牆合法性的裁決.

“In its advisory opinion on the wall case, the court noted that the threat that Israel had argued justified the construction of the wall was not imputed to a foreign state, but emanated from the occupied Palestinian territory over which Israel itself exercises control,” Lowe said. 「在隔離牆案的諮詢意見中，法院指出，以色列辯稱建造隔離牆的威脅並非歸咎於外國，而是來自以色列自己控制的巴勒斯坦被佔領土，」洛威說。

“For those reasons, the court decided, as a matter of international law, the right of self-defense under Article 51 of the charter, the U.N. Charter, had no relevance in such circumstances,” he said. 「基於這些原因，法院裁定，作為國際法問題，《聯合國憲章》第 51 條規定的自衛權在這種情況下沒有任何意義，」他說.

Just three weeks ago the U.N. Security Council reaffirmed that Gaza is occupied territory, he said. “The tightness of its grip may have varied, but no one can doubt the continuous reality of Israel’s grip on Gaza,” Lowe said. 他說，就在三週前，聯合國安理會重申加薩是被佔領土。 洛說：“以色列對加薩的控制力度可能有所不同，但沒有人可以懷疑以色列對加薩的持續控制。”

“The court’s legal holding from 2004 holds good, and a similar point is to be made here what Israel is doing in Gaza, it is doing in territory under its own control. Its actions are enforcing its occupation. The law on self-defense under Article 51 of the U.N. Charter has no application,” he said. 「法院自 2004 年以來的法律判決仍然成立，類似的觀點也適用於以色列在加薩所做的事情，即以色列在自己控制下的領土上所做的事情。 它的行動正在強化其佔領。 《聯合國憲章》第五十一條規定的自衛法不適用，」他說。
