Biden is doing what all centrists want.
Yes. Just him...
I mean the list of US presidents who supported Israel to the extent Biden did is pretty short.
Biden is an embarrassment
Embarrassment is the key word... And besides, there is the next old guy...
🤡 administration. Who gives a fuck about a genocide supporting Zionists opinion about this?
Fuck Biden. Fuck genocide.
Fuck 'em. Fuck 'em all. If they want to fight so badly, they can fight each other directly. Don't get the rest of us involved.
"whatever the ICC might imply, there is no equivalence — none — between Israel and Hamas."
Well that's true... Israel has killed way more innocent people than Hamas ever has...
Just so people can understand why the ICC claims jurisdiction, it is because the Palestinian Authority acting as the State of Palestine acceded to the Rome Statute of the ICC and thus became a state party in 2015. They pretty much did this with the express intention to give the ICC jurisdiction over alleged Israeli war crimes in occupied Palestinian territories. In 2019, ICC Prosecutor Fatou Bensouda requested a ruling on the question of ICC jurisdiction in Palestine. In 2021 the ICC Pre-Trial Chamber ruled that Palestine's accession to the Rome Statute gave it jurisdiction over Palestinian territories occupied by Israeli forces (a.k.a. the West Bank and Gaza Strip).
Lebanon is not and has never been a state party or signatory, for those curious. Israel and the US are signatories but refused to ratify the treaty, and thus aren't state parties. Nonetheless, the ICC had decided that crimes committed in countries who have acceded or ratified its statute, or accepted its jurisdiction, are subject to ICC regardless of the citizenship or residency of the alleged perpetrators. This is also why it issued arrest warrants against Vladimir Putin despite neither Russia nor Ukraine being state parties; Ukraine accepted ICC jurisdiction on an ad hoc basis for crimes committed during the Russian invasion.
Maybe the ICC and UN should just buy more weapons than israel. Then the shit hole country would be THEIR bitch instead of Benjamin's... After Putin has zipped up of course...
Money and racism seems to be the only motivation for that place.
Centrists don't know what to call people who don't love genocide as much as they do now that they can't accuse them of being trump supporters.
Trump would gain so much support if instead of having a kangaroo court in the us to try people for bogus crimes he simple had Biden admin officials sent out to The Hague to be tried for real crimes
I'm kinda feelin' ya. Who and for what crimes? Be specific.
