    One has to question themselves when supporting the death of civilians. Even if a war has to occur, it should be between government and government, not against civilians that did nothing against them. "Oh but the hostages11!1!!!" So you are saying few hostages have higher priority than the tens of thousans of dead women children and literal babies? Prove me wrong with an ACTUAL reasonable counter argument

    Jews did nothing wrong in palestine. All those "warcrimes" is a result of palestinians hating jews more then loving their own children, and making their children hostages. Also don't forget all those videos from Paliwood 😂

    it's not that hard :
    – people with power rule the world.
    – said people with power made a court to judge and punish those lower than them without losing money in war.
    – said people in power control said. court with said power
    – said people with power would not arrest themselves for the crimes that they did in their own court

    Calling bullshit on this video. International law is way too broad and expansive to make blanket statements like it’s made to favor the US and its allies.

    A few points. Despite the UNSC certainly favoring super powers, the rest of the UN is definitively not favorable to the US or allies like Israel. ST says they don’t scrutinize the US or Israel but that’s just blatantly false.

    As for the ICC, it has many flaws, but it is unfortunately constrained by the great powers. That is the fault of international law. It’s not the US, it’s great powers. They’re generally able to stymie a lot, which is why the ICC was mostly only able to operate in Africa where the great powers simply did not care.

    The UN itself is at the forefront of justice in most cases. It is a progressive anticolonial force that is limited by the great powers. International law itself is justice, it is the great powers that hold it back.

    The funny part is that the hegemony of USA and the dollar would have been much better served had they respected international law to at least a decent extent.

    US politics make me sick to my stomach. Regardless of whether it's Republicans or Democrats. Both are vomit-inducing, uneducated, cowboys.
    What the US need are another 1-2 political options. But as it stands right now, the US have a 1-party system because in all essential issues, Dems and Repos are identical.

    I really wish you would stop talking about Israel and went back to socialist points. I’ve convinced so many people of socialism with your content. But the Israel stuff is just excessive
