Genocide Case

On the 10th of December 2024, International Human Rights Day, Uncle Robbie Thorpe and lawyer Daniel Taylor will be prosecuting Mark Regev (Benjamin Netanyahu’s former Senior Advisor for Foreign Affairs and Communication) in the Magistrates Court in Melbourne. Regev is being charged under section 80.2D of the Australian Criminal Code, Advocacy for Genocide, for public comments made in the Australian Media.

The prosecution against Mark Regev for advocating genocide while advisor to Prime Minister Netanyahu is significantly more advanced than the ICC prosecutions of Benjamin Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant by the ICC. While the ICC case cannot proceed until the defendants are arrested, Mr Regev has already been served and the Victorian courts are the appropriate place for Mr Regev to be tried before a jury of his peers. It is Australia’s international obligation to prosecute.

To support Uncle Robbie and Dan Taylor’s case, you can send an email to the Deputy Director of Public Prosecutions, Mr David Bahlen, requesting that he file an indictment against Mr Regev for the charge of advocating Genocide.

To avoid spam filters, we strongly recommended you choose your own subject line and that you write a letter in your own words including these points, however we have included a full draft letter below as well, which you can change the wording of.

Q12125161 Taylor v Regev

  • On 10th October 2023 on ABC Radio National Mr Regev advocated genocide not only to the general public, but also to Mr Netanyahu and to Mr Gallant on public radio, by the imposition of the siege on Gaza ordered by Defence Minister Yoav Gallant and the cutting off of all electricity, food, and water. This siege was put into effect and civilians were murdered as a result including by famine. https://www.abc.net.au/listen/programs/radionational-drive/netanyahu-israel-s-offensive-has-only-started-/102957588
  • Mr Regev advocated for the imposition of conditions of life calculated to destroy the Palestinian Population of Gaza.
  • Mr Regev was the Senior Advisor to Mr Netanyahu, the architect of the genocide. By his words on public radio, he advocated to Netanyahu and Gallant to carry out the imposition of starvation on Gaza and thereby advocated genocide. He was not only reckless, but he had intent for the policy to be carried out. He materially contributed to the famine in Gaza knowing it would result in the murder of civilians.
  • The prosecution against Mark Regev for advocating genocide while advisor to Prime Minister Netanyahu is significantly more advanced than the ICC prosecutions of Benjamin Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant by the ICC. While the ICC case cannot proceed until the defendants are arrested, Mr Regev has already been served and the Victorian courts are the appropriate place for Mr Regev to be tried before a jury of his peers. It is Australia’s international obligation to prosecute.
  • I request you to file an indictment against Mr Regev for the charge of advocating Genocide.
  • There are other elements of the crime including mass killing of Palestinians that Mr Regev has condoned, obfuscated and justified.
  • Mr Regev must be held to account for advocating genocide.
