At the ICJ today, the US argued, almost alone in the world, in defense of the Israeli regime in its attacks on humanitarians and the blocking of aid. In doing so, it tried to distort humanitarian law & the UN Charter out of any meaningful content, to shift blame away from the perpetrator & onto the humanitarians themselves, to suggest Israel’s atrocious attacks were necessary to maintain law & order, and that a (US) veto in the Security Council means the GA isn’t allowed to do anything either. No one fell for any of it. The U.S. only embarrassed itself, as it has done on the Israeli regime’s behalf countless times before. The U.S. is more isolated today than ever.

Ambassador Huckabee: It is my duty to bring to Your Excellency's attention Article 8(2)(b)(xxv) of the Rome Statute, which states that withholding humanitarian aid is a war crime. This action would further aggravate conditions of life calculated to destroy the Palestinian population of Gaza. No one benefits from this—not the Palestinians, not the Israelis, not the North Americans—none of us. Together, we can stop this monstrosity.
