Biden "Aiding and Abetting War Crimes" by Israel
"Biden has also knowingly let U.S. weapons to be used by Israel to commit war crimes in violation of the Fourth Geneva Convention, the U.S. Arms Control Export Act and the Arms Supply Agreement between the U.S. and Israel."
Regarding the use of the term "genocide" -- see commentary by the late noted legal expert Michael Ratner from 2014, during the last major Israeli bombing of Gaza: "UN's Investigation of Israel Should Go Beyond War Crimes to Genocide." Also see research paper from the Center for Constitutional Rights (where Ratner was president) from 2016: "The Genocide of the Palestinian People: An International Law and Human Rights Perspective."
TeleSUR reports: "Iran's Foreign Affairs Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif on Sunday called on the Organization of Islamic Cooperation to declare Israel's aggressions against Palestinians as genocide and crimes against humanity." See video. While the U.S. of course excercises a veto at the UN Security Council, Boyle notes that almost any member state of the UN can invoke the Genocide Convention at the General Assembly, but none have done so; see "A Global Legal Intifada: If It's a Genocide in Gaza, then Invoke the Convention to Stop it" from 2014 by Sam Husseini.
