It is disappointing, if not surprising, that the west’s response to the ICC accusations was to defend Israel despite its war crimes

    Short answer: it isn’t

    The power structures that make ‘the west’ a bloc in the international system are 100% defending Israel’s genocide.

    We’re giving them weapons, vetoing on their behalf in the UN, denying that the text book genocide going on is a genocide. Netanyahu’s war crimes are as obvious and publicly committed as trump’s money laundering and election subversion, yet biden is pretending that the ICC warrant is unjustified.

    Despite a growing number of brutally beaten protestors, it’s still true to say that the west is supporting israeli war crimes.
