Israel “Likely” Used U.S.-Supplied Weapons in Violation of International Law. That’s OK, Though, State Department Says. – The Intercept

This week, Biden admitted for the first time that Israeli forces have used U.S. bombs to kill civilians. In December he stated that Israel was losing support over its “indiscriminate bombing” in Gaza.

“For over 216 days, the world has watched Israel use weapons provided by the United States to commit mass atrocities and gross violations against Palestinians in Gaza. Civil society organizations, watchdogs, and former administration officials have documented and verified countless examples that have shown Israel’s assurances were never credible nor reliable,” said Mohammed Khader, action policy manager at the US Campaign for Palestinian Rights Action. “The report is grossly incomplete and is far from holding Israel accountable for violating U.S. and international law.”
