A US-based nonprofit organization has urged the international criminal court to investigate former president Joe Biden and two of his cabinet members for complicity in war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.
The request, submitted by the Democracy for the Arab World Now (Dawn) last month but made public by the group on Monday, urges the ICC to investigate Biden, as well as former secretary of state Antony Blinken and former defense secretary Lloyd Austin, for their “accessorial roles in aiding and abetting, as well as intentionally contributing to, Israeli war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza”.
Dawn’s 172-page submission, which the group says was prepared with the support of ICC-registered lawyers and other war crimes experts, alleges that the former US officials violated articles of the Rome statute, the court’s founding charter, in their support for Israel.
Trump is worse, though. They’re not even upholding the supposed ceasefire and are pushing the Palestinians out with tanks, now.
Not saying Biden didn’t shit the bed, but nobody with any functioning brains cells should have allowed Trump to win if they actually gave a single solitary fuck about Palestine.
Trump can go too
There is an overton window which is normally shifted right by the Republicans. Democrats took such a massive leap to the right under Biden by supporting a genocide that it has become fully normalized.
Trump would have taken such massive flak for it. But Biden used his election season to hush opposition and force them to accept genocide or concede the election.
Trump literally already supported the single state genocide solution in his previous term, and Biden never once supported single state.
Ya’ll are just bad actors trying to dissuade people from voting for progress.
Illegally giving arms to genociders doesn’t feel like progress.
But I should know that the US will always support a genocide if they can make a buck.
Fuck this country.
Talking about dishonesty while making the most dishonest arguments.
Do you think Trump could get this many Americans on board for paying for a genocide when we don’t even have healthcare?
Republican voters were for it, but not the “moderates”. Nothing trump could have done would have gotten more than Republican support.
Biden normalized it and when high ranking Dems do shit like that because 5% of Dem voters and 100% of Republican voters want it…
No one stops them.
All Biden did was make Trump’s current handling more acceptable to the general public because for four years they’ve been saying what Biden has been doing isn’t that bad.
Despite violating multiple US and International laws.
You yourself, right now, are defending it and downplaying how bad genocide is, even if you’re not trying to.
You’re choosing to spend your free time downplaying the genocide of millions of fucking people.
Because at least it wasn’t a Republican doing it.
Congrats, you now understand exactly how MAGA can support trump despite trump hurting them. You might not realize that tho.
There are little to none Moderate Republicans. 50 of them confirmed Hegseth, who literally unapologetically thinks killing off every Palestinian is the solution, and all of them consistently vote against socialized healthcare.
Biden earned that golden pager. trump just received it for some reason. Trump is continuing where he left off and it fucking gross. Both are evil when it comes to Gaza
