Hints at supporting sanctions? He’s threatened to defund the UN, the World Food Programme and ‘starve the world’ if the UN recognizes a Palestinian state.
Fucking hell. What monsters would propose ending food programs across the world just so one man can sit in power during a genocide?
He’s a man, he can be replaced, he will be replaced eventually. Why are we going to piss off every country with a conscience for this goblin of a man with the military and political brainpower of a bowling pin?
Only thing this will do is fuel animosity towards the US.
This action was so fucked up and beyond my list of shitty things that the US might do that it honestly didn’t occur to me and so when reading the headline I found it confusingly phrased but thought maybe it somehow meant there was some hint of support for the ICC’s decision and warrants which would have been amazing. Imagine the rollercoaster for me when they actually managed to surprise me with a decision and stance worse than I could have imagined.
The US once again acting like they are the only sheriff in town pisses me off. Making Netanyahu accountable for his crimes has absolutely zero shit to do with protecting Israel. Biden should understand that. His young electors understand that.
If anything, prosecuting him might even make Israel safer because this whole thing is serving as a recruitment campaign for Hamas or whatever replaces them if Israel manages to eliminate their current command structure.
And this is creating a very dangerous precedent, where the US government shows complete disrespect of international law and provides Israel with this so-called feeling of utter impunity.
I understand that Biden should please his donors, but isn’t there a single candidate that thinks more about the humans than for the money.
And that’s why ladies and gentlemen, we the plebes outside the US don’t like the US state, because they always think they are above the law and act as such. Law should apply to everyone equally, no matter what their nationality or how fat their bank account is. Deliberately undermining the law should be punishable, and these people should seriously be ashamed of themselves by thinking they are the only one who can define what’s right and wrong!
This isn’t simply a matter of Biden pleasing his donors, nor is it really about Biden in particular. This is the liberal international order working as designed, namely that the US makes the rules and orders everyone else around. Israel is a settler-colonial project of the Western imperial core, and it has been the US’ unsinkable aircraft carrier in West Asia for generations. As Biden has said throughout his career, “were there not an Israel, the United States of America would have to invent an Israel to protect her interest in the region.” The Hague Invasion Act has been on the books for over 20 years, so this is nothing new and has always been bipartisan.

Yes, plenty.
Any of them that will be allowed anywhere near power?
No, none.
International law isn’t real, never has been, and never will be until nation-state economic interests, or better yet, leaders of those states are arrested for violation.
Fuck me the USA has turned into Russia, just shit posting/voting in the UN all the time. This is getting more and more to what Russia wants, no more UN, and they wanna trash it over genocide that they seem very ok with. Why are we not learning from the past. I was told we were to learn from it.
Fuck me the USA has turned into Russia,
Always has been. There’s a reason all meaningful Israel-related UN resolutions are 50+ years old.
Russia? Pure hyperbole
How is that, Russia has stated many times they want the UN to go away. By doing all this its just segmenting the people and weakening the power it holds. Please use more then 3 words to make your point.
Not only does blue MAGA want me to vote for genocide, they want me to vote for genocide denial and the destruction of international law.
Okay putler
🤡
Israel has killed hundreds of times more children than Russia has in Ukraine. It’s the deadliest conflict for children in the modern world.
Yeah, better make sure red MAGA wins instead so you can get genocide denial, destruction of international law, destruction of local law, a brand new genocide in Europe and less woman and minority rights.
That will sure teach that 81 years old a lesson to see even more people suffer for the rest of their lives until he croaks in a few years!
Blue MAGA isn’t the mummy. It’s the Party.
What do you think happens if Democrats, as a Party, know they can always just use the boogeyman to scare us into voting for them?
If you vote for blue MAGA the Party will realize they can kill anyone they want and you’ll still vote for them. Who’s next on the menu?
First they came…
Same difference, cutting your nose to spite your face.
There has to be a limit or Democrats can just do whatever they want, because you’ll always vote for them. Hence, blue MAGA. That’s a cult.
As someone else said, getting the Republicans elected will not improve anything if people don’t change things from the bottom up (it will actually make everything you’re angry about worse). The Democrats won’t change their stances if they lose that election unless new people take the place of the politicians in place at the moment, they will just rely on people being angrier at the Republicans than they are at them after Trump’s next term, the result will be four years of things getting even worse and the Democrats having to fix even more shit when they get back in power in 2028.
Why would Democrats fix anything? They can just use the threat of Republicans to get reelected. Fixing things is not in their interests, because you will vote for them even if they don’t fix anything at all.
The US will do the right thing one day, after they’ve tried everything else.
