Not being American have I got this right, there is a bipartisan bill aimed at punishing South Africa for raising what the the International Court of Justice then subsequently found it plausible Israel has committed acts of genocide against Gaza?
If the US wants to advocate for adherence to a rules based order then it has to be willing to abide by it, otherwise why would others?
PFFFT HAHAHAHA
The us? adhere to a rules-based order? That's fuckin rich. No, the US will have to be dragged kicking and screaming into the light like germany in the 40s one of these days.
USian here, it's a common misconception. It's actually the "Our rules-based international order". Perhaps unsurprisingly, our rules say that the 1st world can practice unlimited plunder on the 3rd world as long as we're mostly not too open about doing it (This part is becoming obsolete). The rules also state that any country defending itself from us is an aggressive rogue terrorist state that has opened itself up to unlimited saturation self defense, followed by plunder, by virtue of breaking the rules.
If someone notices the obvious mafia-like structure of these rules and say, tries to take it up with the ICC, the rules also say we will invade the Hague.
Those damn anti-genocide people with their political motivations
Biden is destroying the USs credibility. At this rate the "rules based international order" will be just the US and some allies 🙄
US Republican congressman John James and Democratic Party congressman Jared Moskowitz
how very bipartisan
I'm always skeptical of any story about a bill being submitted. There's a lot of steps between that and it even getting a vote. Is this really newsworthy? Let me know if it gets through committee, then I'll care.
Look deep enough, there's gonna be a bill to install irradiated cream cheese into trident nuclear missiles...
As an American, notify us when it gets by either the house or Senate
Usually the "insane" bills like these are written by crank Republicans, MTG types. This one's got a Democrat too, even if it doesn't pass it goes to show how unhinged Dems are.
