Version 6.15.2
This represents a shameful assault on human rights defenders who document war crimes under horrific conditions in Gaza. The Trump administration is dismantling international justice to shield Israel from accountability while the world's leading genocide scholars confirm Israel meets legal criteria for committing genocide. These draconian sanctions target respected organizations working tirelessly for victims of mass atrocity crimes during an ongoing genocide.
These sanctions protect American sovereignty and allies from a politicized international court that has no jurisdiction over the United States or Israel. The ICC's overreach threatens the sovereignty of democratic nations by attempting to prosecute officials from countries that never agreed to its authority under the Rome Statute. Organizations that fuel this illegitimate targeting of Israel deserve consequences for undermining the rule of law.
