Asked whether the US has evidence to support or refute the ICC’s allegation that Israel is using starvation as a tactic of war in Gaza, US President Joe Biden instead answered that there is “no equivalence” between Israel and Hamas.

WHAT THEY HAVE IS ONLY DENIAL & HYPOCRACY!
BIDEN IS 👎 👎 👎 👎 👎 👎 👎 👎 👎 LEADER IF AMERICA.
Brain dead
I dont know who to vote for. Not Joe nor Trump.
Dr Jill Stein
Third Party, or not corporate candidate.
Hypocrites
I’m sorry he’s my president.
Biden has gone mad at the behest of the Nut&Yahoo. Out in November useless man
SO what happened in NUREMBERG??
He is not out of his mind .Satan dwells in his mind. Cunning treacherous
WTF .. and America wonders why the world hates them.
Like most people i dont hate america, , i cant stand the US government foreign policy.
American people are just people.
Btw im french
@@nab16most governments are the same in this way
Pure evil 😈 ,hypocrisy on its peak
ICC only has jurisdiction when bully boy US says it does
A conjunction of senility, stupidity, hegemony, and genocidal tendencies….
It is not about equivalence. Israel is much worse. It’s about that both violated international law.
Biden hilang telor yang dia bawa..😂
The hypocrisy is chilling.
Guess what? There are many countries that don’t recognise israel as a country because IS REAL is not Real country.
🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
Funny how in a democracy, they dont even get to hold the mic while asking their question, incanse they need to be silenced straight away…. thats if they get a truthful or even an answer at all.
Next level hypocrisy or just being plain evil genocide Joe got it all
The highest level of hypocrisy can be seen here. Biden is a personification of evil, next to Netanyahu.
Biden is a coward to stand up to Israel. Oh wait. They are paying him to help with the genocide.
For anyone who doubts that Zionists are SATANIC !
Biden is a coward!
Satan: ✡️ 👈 choosen ones
It doesn’t matter what you think, Joe. That warrant stands, and it will affect those Netanyahu and his way of life as he knows it, whether you like it or not.
Gonna lose, old man!
Wow what a COWARD
asking on evidence and biden answering on equivalence 😂………………..Such a coward Joe Biden…………..
What a weak and immoral man.
En quoi est-ce les décisions de la CPI concernant se crabataire mental, vue que le pays qu il dirige n est pas affilié à cette juridictions
JB is the definition of how to say a bunch if words and convey nothing
He perfectly coveyed that they built and used ICC and UN as a tool to indirectly colonise other countries and use their authority over them.
But that same authority can’t be practiced on United Stated of !$n0tr3@|.
duuh boyo
Senile Joe is the father of Setan
Instructor: write an essay about genocide
Sleepy genocide Joe: global economy is declining
Izrahell’s Most Coward Criminals are proud of their paid lapdogs propagandists spewing blatant lies about their genocide in Palestine as much as they breathe 🤢🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
He don’t recognise because it is their own ICC for other countries. US is exempted.
They got money n power…so they got nothing to fear or worry about!!
That question is so precise!!
And Biden COMPLETELY evades it! ANYONE can see through it
We all know they are using that tactic you really have to ask them shame on you
There’s nothing about equivalence in the arrest warrant. Biden argues with himself.
Well what you believe is not necessary to be truth. You don’t believe Quran, but it’s the truth. What you think is very clear, that you have double standard in believing what idf did last 75 years is not even close to what hamas did in Oct 7. But you can’t change the truth of 75 years of genocides. 75 years of stealing their homes. Destroying their homes to make home for Jews.
Exactly
But you recognize it when Putin was involved, such a shame and a disgrace. This is the lowest anyone can go.
U can tell He was lying by the way he was talking and looking down at the podium while answering the question smh?? Plus why they saying they don’t recognize their jurisdiction at this moment but they gladly recognized it when it came to Putin smh Biden is a such a LIAR😮🤦
Exactly.
Biden and blinken are also a part of these genocide..
ICC should take action against both of these men
But they are exempted because it is their own ICC use for their enemy like Putin.
Sounds that he makes to cover up his shame
Does that mean the ICC does not have jurisdiction over Myanmar for the atrocities done to the Rohingya since the Rohingya does not have its own state?
They will hide it.
For certain there’s no equivalence…. israel starved 2.5 million civilians for 8 months and counting. They butchered 10’s of thousands of Palestinian children and women….. Justifying their killing of Palestinian children. Shameful.
From River to DC, Deport Washington Dual-Citizenry to ICC ➡️
Mr Biden,r u sure,HEAVEN WILL WELCOME U with your these inhumane deeds?
Yes there is no equivalence between an illegal occupier colonialist and the people they oppressed and steal from
Mr Biden,r u Sure,HEAVEN WILL WELCOME U with ur these inhumane deeds?
Acceptance. Accountability. Action. Pre schoolers are taught to exist in peace and these ‘adults’ do not know how to do that.
Shame on you evil double standards
He’s sleepy Joe, he doesn’t understand anything 😂
Joe’s part looks like it has been AI edited listen very carefully It sounds very robotic. I know for a fact he has speech difficulties and you are on point
Reporter: Why you against ICC?
Biden. Just because
Just because we use the laws only for our enemies
That’s too many words for biden
Double standard.
Yeah no one asked about the equivalence? They asked if you had proof there are no war crimes and you gave a word salad.
oh biden… blood on your hands……
Justice for all
He’s right, there is no equivalence. The IDF is worse than Hamas in many ways.
Mdfking uSA messing with the international laws and favoring the main criminal Israel
Please prosecute Biden before he’s completely petrified.
Honestly what a absolute embarrassment for Americans to have such a Muppet lead their country.
Yes u have made ur position clear…ur an evil enabler. You will be known for the crimes you have committed.
So according to him. He dont recognise that icc issued warrant for putin
Biden and his administration is protecting the Criminals responsible for Genocide of Palestinians
There is no equivalence. They are separate charges
Icc has made a mockery of this by adding charges of grape by hamas that are unfounded yet ignore the documented cases of sexual abuse by the iof.
He understands everything cus he’s a war criminal as well. I Don’t know why he’s not included as well as Rishi Sunak.They were providing the arms for carrying out the genocide. 😮
We don’t recognise the usa authority
shame on USA,UK supporting ISRAEL for doing genocide in Gaza
1: Comparison:
In the Srebrenica-Bosnian genocide, less than 10,000 were killed, whereas about 35,000 have been killed in Gaza so far.
In the Srebrenica-Bosnian genocide, most of those killed were men, unlike in Gaza, where 70% of those killed are children, women, and the elderly.
[Source: Israel Gaza: What Gaza‘s death toll says about the war, BBC News.]
In the Srebrenica-Bosnian genocide, just a third as many people died as did in Gaza in terms of the percentage of the total population so far.
In the Srebrenica-Bosnian genocide, Serbs claimed to have perpetrated it to disarm Bosnian military men. Sound familiar?
In the international definition of genocide, it doesn’t matter if those who committed the genocide were provoked first.
More Palestinian children were killed in one week than Ukrainian children in one year.
2: Death Toll:
The Gaza Health Ministry is not controlled in any way by Hamas when it comes to estimates of the death toll.
Their figures from previous conflicts have lined up with figures from foreign, even western and American, counts.
The Gaza Health Ministry doesn’t have simple estimates, but it actually calculates the total death toll by counting each body delivered to hospitals and morgues.
It is an extremely high standard for death figures, one that certainly results in a figure that is much lower than the real figure.
The cause of lower figures is that during violent attacks like this:
There are always many dead who never make it to a hospital or a morgue and who aren’t found until much later.
There are some who don’t even have any family members left to report them missing.
The US Assistant Secretary of State for Middle East Affairs says that the death toll is “very possibly” much higher than being cited.
[Source: US official says Gaza death toll is believed to possibly be higher than claimed, Times of Israel.]
Only one of the five genocidal acts listed in the UN genocidal acts list of the UN Genocide Convention in Article II is related directly to killing (stipulation (a)), and meeting any of the 5 stipulations constitutes genocide.
A genocide doesn’t need high death counts.
3: Genocidal Acts:
3.1: Act 1, Bombing Civilian Buildings.
Israel grip over Gaza was always so complete, that it actually controls the Gaza Population Registry.
Meaning, when it strikes a residential building, it has a list of everyone who lives there.
It knows how many people, how many children, and how many elderly people could be killed or injured.
Then it bombs them anyway.
[source: The Population Registry, Gisha – Legal Center for Freedom of Movement]
As the trial for Srebrenica said:
“The offender is culpable because he knew or should have known that the act committed would destroy, in whole or in part, a group.” This wholly applies to Israel‘s bombing.
After Israel destroyed and damaged 60% of Gaza’s buildings, it claimed that they killed 5,000 fighters.
That would have required that every military-aged man killed was a fighter, so it is clearly inflated.
Even if we assume 5,000 fighters was correct:
60% means 100,000 destroyed, 250,000 damaged, including 25,000 ‘military’ targets.
All of those buildings for 5,000 fighters.
This is also all using the highest precision weapons worldwide.
With these numbers, it’s a more plausible assumption to say that Israel targets civilians and accidentally kills a fighter in the process, not vice versa.
The bombing against Germany during World War II destroyed just 45% of buildings over multiple years.
Gaza’s 60% was in 2 months, and the numbers now sre certainly far higher than before.
Many claim that Israel warning people to leave buildings before a bomb drops is a humane act. But…
This means any figters inside can leave too.
That leaves the only reason for the bombing:
Leaving nothing for Palestinians to return to after being exiled to Sinai.
More on population transfer later.
This shows that not only is the claim of bombing to kill Hamas fighters just irrelevant in whether a genocide is being perpetrated or not, but it is also blatantly false.
Israel bombed practically every square inch of North Gaza. It is absurd to say each building had a fighter.
Even killing a fighter in the bombing of a building is a war crime, as he would be off-duty.
An exception to this is commanders.
Israel posted a video of a strike on a church, claiming it was a Hamas militant center.
Later, they deleted all evidence from social media., and refused to comment on it in any way.
Hundreds of civilians and dozens of children were sheltering in the church at the time.
They knowingly lied about it being a Hamas center and tried to use it as media propaganda.
3.2: Act 2, Population Transfer:
An Israeli leaked document, confirmed as authentic by Israel, proposed to evacuate all 2.4 million Gazan Palestiniand via evacuation orders into tent cities that would be set up in the Sinai peninsula of Egypt.
It also explicitly states that the population will never be allowed to return.
[source: Israel Intelligence Ministry Policy Paper on Gaza’s Civilian Population, October 2023]
Israel’s acts show that these plans are being implemented.
Forcible transfer is a war crime, and would be considered within the context of a wider genicidal scheme.
Israel told 1.1 million North Gazans to evacuate south.
These are the types of threats used in the Srebrenica-Bosnian genocide:
Mrs. Camila Omanovic, a witness in the trial of General Krstié, recalled Mladic’s words clearly:
“He said, ‘You can go anywhere you want, or you can stay here or just vanish.’”
They are not humanitarian; they are threats designed to force native residents to leave.
This is a clear case of forced population transfer.
They bombed all the houses in the north en masse, ensuring that all those who evacuated had nothing to return to when they are eventually expelled to Sinai.
By November 23rd, around 1.7 million Palestinians, or 70% of the population of Gaza, were displaced.
The numbers are now certainly far higher.
These people are getting expelled, then getting expelled from where they were expelled multiple times.
Many who were being expelled were bombed on the way south.
This happened because Israel bombed the southern routes and ‘safe zones’ after telling the 1.1 million Palestinians to move south.
[Source: Israel told Palestinians to evacuate to southern Gaza and stepped up attacks there, NPR.]
The zone will keep shrinking until they get expelled into Sinai.
This transfer of populations is also what happened in Srebrenica:
“The Trial Chamber provided sufficient reasoning for its conclusion that the suffering of the women, children, and elderly forcibly removed from Srebrenica amounted to serious mental harm under Article 4 of the Statute.”
Gaza‘s situation is on a far larger scale than that of Srebrenica.
All the actions we went over correspond to sections (b) and (c) of the UN Genocide Convention list of genocidal acts in Article II:
“(b) Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group”
“(c) Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part.”
In the UN Genocide Convention, meeting just any one of the 5 listed genocidal acts is enough to constitute genocide.
There is so much more to say. Prayers from Bangladesh 🇧🇩❤️🇵🇸 Palestine will be free InshaAllah, free Palestine from the 75+ years apartheid, war-criminal racist, mytholgical fascist, supremacist zionists
