America needs to get independent from Israel first.

Congress needs to be charged with complicity in war crimes.

I expect the ICC to issue arrest warrants to American government officials for their support in this.

[jparadise]

Stop saying oct 7 was the start of this war. They did not just attack for no reason it was warranted.

[tethergobrrr]

He’s wrong when he says Israel has the right to defend itself. An occupier is the belligerent. It does not have the right to self defence, only the responsibility to end the occupation.

[SamA-dcgj]

True, united state worry about Israel more than American people who pay taxes, we can send billions of dollars in 24 hours to Israel but American people will wait years for help

[basstrap]

The AIPAC grip on US politics is unbreakable. $$$ What did Jimmy Carter have to say about the Palestinian issue? What was happening before Oct 7?

[randyscrafts]

I hereby sanction my government for sanctioning the ICC. My government must take responsibility for their actions and words.

[roseismil]

Much respect for those who stand up against these corrupt politicians

[AlexanderSomm]

Still talk about the 60 Israelis held captive, not a word about the 12'000 Palestinians held illegally for years.
Disgusting.

[HumanityandIntegrity]

One of the few with an ounce of humanity

[markusleitner]

America is in no position to pretent to be the guardian of democracy, international law, human rights and peace.

[sarjacamara]

At least someone has the courage in Congress to speak up

[PatriciaClaireEdelstein]

I can't understand why the American people would vote to undermine a world court that represents the rights for the vulnerable.

[AhmedHassan-fwb]

US Israel
Guilty for crimes against humanity,

[murb]

"when telling the truth is a crime you are being governed by liars"

[tiniestavenger]

This is the same as silencing ANY critics

[djmikesea]

We would be less human if we did not fight for the freedom of Palestine - Nelson Mandela

[falishassan]

What a wonderful man, put American people's that struggling first, not foreign country

[ShaneGlasson]

If I was American I'd be asking serious questions after watching congress and your politicians devotion to Israel. It was sickening.
