Maybe people should stop interfering in matters that don't concern them....hamas deserves to be eliminated from the face of the earth....if all these do gooders feel so strong about it the go over there...I can guarantee they'll welcome 🙏 with open bullets...it's not genocide if it's justified

This is great news! Now let's act to stop genocide. I'm hoping...

Maggoty ,

Mr Biden tear down this alliance!

TheUncannyObserver ,

Israel will ignore it, and their paid-for members of the US Congress will ensure that anyone who tries to hold Israel accountable is threatened into submission by the US military, a subsidiary of the IDF. Israel rules America, and America is the strongest nation on earth, whom nobody will seriously cross. Ergo, Israel rules the world.

FlowVoid ,

You don't need to "rule the world" to ignore the ICJ.

Among others, Japan ignored an ICJ order to stop hunting protected whales and Russia ignored ICJ orders related to its invasion of Ukraine. Neither one needed help from the US.

Maggoty ,

That's because nobody is going to fight a war over whales and Russia is Russia. Israel does not have that power level.

FlowVoid ,

Nobody is going to start another war in Israel. The ICJ is a court of law, it does not authorize or even approve of violence.

Maggoty ,

We don't need to. We just need to stop giving them military aid and sanction them until they send Netanyahu to the Hague willingly. There's more than just military action.

Israeli rule will soon come to an end. They have become so brazen with their actions they have lost the support of the international community.

FlowVoid ,

Plenty of people persevere without much support from the international community. Starting with Gazans, pre-invasion.

Beetlejuice001 ,

lol jfc that’s so weak.

FlowVoid ,

Venezuela, Syria, Iran, North Korea, Russia, Belarus, Myanmar, and Afghanistan all "lost the support of the international community." Need more examples?

None of them "came to an end". That's just wishful thinking.

The court is the highest UN body for hearing disputes between states. Its rulings are final and binding but have been ignored in the past, reports Reuters. The court has no enforcement powers.

Viking_Hippie ,

And that's by design by the Big 5.

Just like their veto power at the Security Council making sure that they don't even get to condemn atrocities officially.

catloaf ,

Or else what?

Tryptaminev ,

Genocide Joe will be continued to be voted for and praised by Americans who call themselves "progressive", "liberal" or believe they have any "values" while politically approving of genocide.

The sad truth is that the court has no means to enforce its rulings. It relies on governments to be lawful and responsible and on people to demand that of their governments. However the majority of people in countries that still support the genocide are either themselves pro genocide or believe that genocide is in any way acceptable.

Future generations will look at our generation and consider us in the same category as the German Nazis, their supporters and those ignorant of their crimes.

TokenBoomer ,

Maybe it’s time to stop “just following orders.”

Maggoty ,

Oh careful. I've been having comments removed for suggesting we stop voting for Democrats.

TokenBoomer ,

Judging from Biden’s poll numbers and approval rating, it’s Joever. He’s lost too many voters that will not return. So, vote for him if you want, I intend to. But I don’t think it matters.

mierdabird ,

Progressives clearly are not happy with Biden about his Israel stance so claiming progressives support genocide is clearly rage bait nonsense.
He is absolutely not doing a good job reining Israel in, but what exactly do you expect progressives to do? Vote for Trump? Not vote at all? Either way the result would be much worse genocide.

juicy ,

Who cares what's in their heart? It's their actions that matter.

I hate Biden and hate that I have to vote for him. Future generations are definitely going to hate us.

xmunk ,

That's our burden for failing to put pressure on primarying him - we should do better next time.

At this point voting for Biden is, however, the only responsible action.

blunderworld ,

If you're American, can I ask who you plan to vote for instead? The way I see it, there isn't really a preferable option.

xmunk ,

Well there's the guy with brain rot... or the guy with literal brain rot from a worm. They're both obviously better for Palestinians. /s

Tryptaminev ,

Did you consider doing more than just voting? Like pushing the democrats to stop supporting genocide?

Bipta ,

Anyone saying "genocide Joe" betrays their inability to think three feet in front of their face.

And I say this fully aware Israel is committing genocide and crimes against humanity.

Or else any last semblance of the rules-based international order is out the window.

arymandias ,

It already was after Iraq, but now they dragged it upstairs to throw it out of the window again, just to make sure it’s really dead.
