U.S. IGNORING OWN LAWS TO SUPPORT ISRAELI CRIMES

The United States has long violated its own laws that forbid US financial, military or humanitarian aid to countries that violate international law.

Josh Paul famously resigned in October after 11 years overseeing arms transfers, security assistance and ‘defence diplomacy’ at the US State Department. His move protested US policy on Israel’s bombardment and siege of the Gaza Strip. The former official with a history in security consulting recently told @democracynow’s @juangon68 that, until the 7 October escalation, he had never seen a US administration avoid seeking a legal opinion and intelligence assessments for arms transfers.

Take a look and let us know what you think.
