Another excellent piece by Jonathan #Cook in the Middle East Eye @middleeasteye
“To continue the Gaza genocide, Israel and the US must destroy the laws of war: The world's two highest courts have made an implacable enemy of Israel in trying to uphold international law and end Israeli atrocities“
“Both the ICJ and the ICC are fully aware of the dangers of taking on Israel – which is why, despite the dissembling complaints from the US and Israel, each court is treading so slowly and cautiously in dealing with Israeli atrocities.
Pick at the Israeli thread of war crimes in Gaza, and the entire cloth of atrocities around the world committed and promoted by the US and its closest allies starts to unravel.”

“It is Washington that tore up the rulebook of international law and elevated above it a self-serving ‘rules-based order’ in which the only meaningful rule is might makes right.”
