“I Have Lost Everything”: In Federal Court, Palestinians Accuse Biden of Complicity in Genocidelocked
Bolstered by a momentous ICJ ruling, Palestinians, including Americans, gave three hours of testimony against the Biden administration.
Lawyers involved with the lawsuit playing out in federal court said that the ICJ ruling bolsters their case. Their lawsuit argues that Biden, Blinken, and Austin are liable under U.S. law for failing to uphold their obligation to prevent genocide in Gaza.
Barry Trachtenberg, a professor of Jewish history and author of two books about the Holocaust, testified as an expert witness in the case – over repeated objections from Justice Department attorneys. When he filed his declaration in the case in November, he said, some 11,000 Palestinians had been killed. Today, that number is far greater.
“Everything that we feared and more is unfolding,” he said, noting that often, legal actions about genocide happen long after the fact. “What makes this situation so unique is that we’re watching the genocide unfold as we speak. And we’re in this incredibly unique position where we can actually intervene to stop it using the mechanisms of international law that are available to us.”
When will you? Stop electing procorporate trash in the primaries. You think we're bluffing?
When their is a viable alternative option. As I am not a member of any political party, I am not able to Vote in the Primary.
And No, I think you are poorly informed fools.
The Boomers and the DNC will make sure there never is one. You want change? They're your biggest obstacle.
Buddy that's irrelevant. If you need our votes so you've gotta listen to our demands. You, the DNC, the Boomers are free to ignore us but then you will lose the general election. Make a choice.
