The United States just gave the United Nations the middle finger in defence of Israel's crimes

 

U.S. President Donald Trump has a message for the international rules-based order: “nah, I’m good.”

His administration just slapped Francesca Albanese with sanctions for doing her job as the United Nations Special Rapporteur on the occupied Palestinian territories.

The move comes just one week after Albanese named companies for their complicity in Israel’s ongoing violence and occupation in Gaza, including U.S. tech companies Alphabet, Palantir, Amazon and more.

Now several human rights experts are warning that the United States is behaving like a “rogue state” and is violating international agreements in its effort to shield Israeli officials from potential prosecution at the International Criminal Court.
