@Miro_Collas @palestine there’s another barrier, Israeli TV is not broadcasting what is going on in Gaza. Many Israeli’s really have no idea what has happened to the degree it has.

Instead of putting up "angry" performances wrt student protests and ICC's issuance of an arrest warrant for Netanyahu, Biden had better listen to what the Irish Prime Minister had to say when Ireland announced the recognition of the State of Palestine (along with and ).

That's how politicians, who actually respect the intelligence of the people whom they serve, deal with political issues, and how they honor their homeland's love for freedom.

Question for law scholars:

The can issue for signatories countries an arrest warrant on because it has jurisdiction over international crimes committed in since 2012

BUT

If doesn't recognise the , its territory isn't included in the jurisdiction, and the crimes of Hamas where carried out there, then how can the issue a legally binding arrest warrant on Hamas leaders?

@amnogues @academicchatter @politicalscience @geopolitics @sociology @anthropology Palestine became a signatory of the Rome Statue in 2015. Judiciary agreed that for the intent of the Rome Statute Palestine be recognised as a State. Crimes committed by or to a member of the ICC gives the ICC full jurisdiction to investigate and Khan has done that. This is no different to Putin’s warrant where Ukraine is a member, but Russia is not.

Though both Israel and US are not signatories of the Rome Statute that concedes ICC jurisdiction, the Genocide Convention that went into force in 1951 covers all General Assembly members and the #ICC is authorized to charge crimes against humanity without limitation.

It also imposes obligations on all #UN members to arrest persons charged. Putin was charged in March 2023 under the genocide convention. Arrest Putin now!

Joe Biden continues to fully support the Gaza genocide because he does not believe it will hurt him politically, and because he has no empathy for the Palestinians. This is the same arrogance that brought down LBJ over the Vietnam war.

I'm going to stick my neck out and suggest that the extremist settler movement in Israel is rooted in the USA and culturally has a lot in common with US white supremacist/settler ideology—there's a reason Netanyahu is so comfortable with Republicans who dine at the Christian Nationalist table.

@WizardBear @cstross Biden is very much complicit by providing the funding and arms. He is the enabler. He has broken both Federal and Intl Law. Should key Israeli Gov and IDF officials ever be charged with genocidal acts, Biden and Blinken will be next on the list. The law is clear on that. You cannot point the finger at Trump for today’s actions while Biden is shovelling money and arms into Israel as fast as he can. That is risible.

Sunak has made it more dangerous to be "British" due to his unqualified support for the extremist genocidal state of Israel.

At the same time, he explicitly associates supporters of #ScottishIndependence with extremism and authoritarian regimes like North Korea.

We simply can't win in this "union". We're not citizens; we're targets.

@MadeyeTheCarnaptious anyone surprised? Apart from the vitriol and racism and bigotry at play, many of these clowns are thick as two short planks and have no idea how anything is governed. I saw a local councillors get verbally abused because they were ‘doing nothing’ about immigration and the thick eejit wouldn’t accept only U.K. Gov controls this.

Really disappointed in Biden today. Believe given climate crisis we should be doing everything we can, including buying inexpensive EVs from China, to hasten the transition from carbon based fuels.

That said, certainly international relations are complex and we don't have all the information or know all the constraints he is wrestling with.

In any case, would never threaten to withhold electoral support. These issues pale measured against a Trump win and the incumbent end of democracy.

@mastodonmigration he is an isolationist like Trump. He is also a war monger and very selective in civil rights. The two candidates may have different personalities etc, but policy wise there are a lot of similarities between Dems and GOP

@fkamiah17 it is a country where the youth are pro eu and have little appetite for welcoming Russians into their country, but the older and elderly age groups still hark back to Soviet times. Like Serbia the Gov is very pro Russian. I nearly choked last week when the US said it was "deeply troubled" by the treatment of protesters and called for an independent investigation into reports of "harassment and physical assault". Does the US Gov not have any self awareness?

@fkamiah17 @BashStKid they start at pre school age. I’ve seen and heard it with my own eyes and ears from extended family and their friends. What’s worrying is the largest group of Israeli Jews are secular, so this is not religion driven but sheer ethnic racism. It is one of the reasons that I will never set foot in Israel again. I may be Jewish, but it is not and never will be my ‘home’ and I have nothing but contempt for its Gov and apartheid laws
