The Trump administration is slapping sanctions on four judges at the International Criminal Court over the tribunal’s investigation into alleged war crimes by Israel in its war against Hamas in Gaza and in the West Bank.

why are the US and Germany so hellbent on defending everything the Netanyahu regime does? As a german I understand and respect our past guilt, but that does not mean we should turn a blind eye to what is happening in Gaza. Just this week a german leftist politian was kicked out of the parliament, because she wore a shirt simply saying “Palestine”. Yet Israel badges are allowed. This is so fucking hypocritical, it makes me sick to my stomach.
AIPAC (Israel) runs the US political system. Whenever a bill about israel comes up it gets 97% of the vote and it always has for decades, even when less than half the US supports israel. Its essentially bribes. I dont know about germany-- are your politicians also for sale?
By some strange coincidence John F Kennedy was assassinated right after he pushed to have AIPAC registered as a foriegn lobbyist. After he was killed that effort to rightly reregister AIPAC was cancelled. And after Israel shot up a United states Naval vessel (The USS liberty) in international waters during the 6 day war, we did nothing at all. They own us and we do what we’re told. Its impressive really. They are a infitesimal part of our population but they pull it off.
I’m pretty sure Evil with a capital E, has won in this timeline…
Germany it’s because of the holocaust (funny that it never translates into wanting to make a safe homeland for Roma people at all costs).
US it’s because of Christian death cults wanting a new temple in Jerusalem because they think it will bring Jesus back.
The USA is abut geopolitics. Israel is their proxy against iran. It could have been any other israeli government and another prime minister and still do the same
Israel doesnt let US military planes do overflights, or land. It was a huge deal in 2016 when they let a navy destroyer resupply in one of its ports. Does that sound like a puppet to you? We have no real permanenet military bases in Israel either. They wont allow them.
What do you think israel can do if the usa decide not to take any order from israel and the usa decide to stop all billions dollars and arms to israel?
They can stop their bribes. cough I mean campaign donations. Because AIPAC is totally not a foreign lobbying entity, right?
The US doesnt have any military interests that relate to the middle east that we couldnt get without Israel. Israel’s brutal colonialism in that region and willingness to use terrorism to achieve their ends has always been a massive millstone around our neck and a massive stain on our national character. Do you think supporting them has no costs to us? And what do we get in return?
Most of the “enemies” of the US in that region are our enemies because we support Israel. Osama Bin Laden said specifically that the 9/11 attacks were to wake the US people up to the repression of the Palestinian and Iraqi innocents.
