Reporters yesterday mocked the hypocrisy of US State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller during a press briefing, where he stated that the US supports the ICC case against ex-Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad but opposes cases against Israeli officials, including Israeli President Benjamin Netanyahu who has led his country to carry out a genocide in the besieged Gaza Strip.

    i wonder if people like him truly believe the bs that they're spouting or if they're aware that they're doing evil.

    how do you respond when they cash in on their evil loyalty points to get a tv show or book deal?

      The Biden adminstration is incredibly aware of their nefarious lies. Their usage of language and requirements for evidence changes by the day.

      Occasionally their new lies clash with their old lies and all they respond is they will investigate it.

      For good examples I suggest the Hind Rajab case where the US has had to change their lies quite a few times.

      Obvious examples are lying that Israel said they contacted the Red Crescent with questions and the Red Crescent said Israel never contacted them

    Matt Lee of AP is truly great. He's one of the few that actually makes Matt Miller slightly squirm
