The administration claimed that blocking arms transfers would embolden Hamas — ignoring Israel’s genocidal slaughter.

    Thank you for that. I am aware of these and I don’t see anywhere that dictates war crimes as the OP suggested. I understand the criminality but that doesn’t mean war crime.

    I was just trying to point out that screaming war crime at everything is not necessary.

      I sell some one a gun that I know they’re going to commit murder with. I know all the details; who, what, where, why, and when.

      Am I guilty of murder?

      Yes. The answer is yes.

      Do you not know how to read or are you then literally choosing to not reply in good faith to what you are reading. Either way that is toxic af and you know it.

      It is literally and by definition, a war crime.

      US weapons are being used for war crimes tho? The US is providing military aid unconditionally, knowing full well they are being used to violate humanitarian international law. The State providing the unconditional means for another state to commit war crimes is just as culpable as the state committing the war crimes.
