I find it meaningful that they're mentioned in the same document/release. Newspeople will obviously shorten that gap even further and put them in the same sentence, separated only by comma (like the CNN article currently linked).
If that doesn't say "your're no better than the other side", I don't know what would. It might be especially disrespectful to the Israeli, who usually play moral high ground, but it's probably also true the other way around.
Titling the official release "... in the situation in the State of Palestine" is a cherry on the top.

- ars 2y agoYou find it meaningful, I find it disgusting, and furthermore it calls the entire "court" into question. It's pretty obvious this is not a real court, and it should be ignored by all. Why did they wait 7 months? If the Netherlands had any morals they would have ejected these clowns long ago.

Yeah, it's not a real court, it's just a bunch of "transnational" bureaucrats imitating the forms of a court, without the foundational basis [1], and at great remove from whatever situations they're pretending to judge. At best, it's a political prop. [1] Which would include things like de-facto power over its claimed jurisdiction, and having law known and respected by the people there.
