Strategic Issues
The United States' Betrayal
It was pretty obvious that the United States would stand with Israel in the case brought against it by South Africa in the International Court of Justice. The United States has been supporting Israel in their war against the Gaza Strip for over 100 days. Should the US choose not to support Israel in this case, it would be holding itself accountable for all the transgressions it has committed across time.
Support from Colonial Countries
Not only is the United States supporting Israel, but other colonial countries like Britain, France, Germany, and Italy are also supporting Israel's crimes. These countries have been backing Israel's actions for a long time, and the effects of these crimes can still be seen today.
A Continuation of Lies
The United States' support for Israel in the International Court of Justice is just another example of the lies practiced by American administrations. The United States continues to commit injustices and crimes against many countries without any consequences.
A Message to the International Court of Justice
The United States' position sends a message to the court judges that it refuses to charge Israel with the crime of genocide in Gaza. This message could affect the integrity of the court and the judges' positions in this important case.
The Consequences of Lying
The United States needs to stop lying if it wants to maintain its leadership in the world. Lying leads to injustice, harms partnerships, and can result in changing alliances and new world systems.
The Role of the International Court of Justice
Although the United States recognizes the importance of the International Court of Justice in resolving disputes peacefully, it is well aware that the court is part of the United Nations, which is led by the United States. The court's decision will be referred to the Security Council, where the United States can continue to cover up the truth and support Israel's lies.
The Need for Honesty
The United States must realize that the world knows the truth behind its lies. If it wants to maintain its leadership, it needs to be honest with itself, its people, and the world. Lying only leads to more problems and can result in the emergence of new leaders and alliances.
