    the phrase “international law” only exists to delegitimize the regimes of the united states’ enemies because only the united states and it’s allies gets to decide who is breaking “international law” by controlling international organizations that were ostensibly setup to enforce “international law” like the un or the icc.

    we’re witnessing it happen with the sanctions the united states has placed on icc & icj who tried to apply “international law” to netanyahu & gallant and again with gvir & smotrich.

    in the next decade or so, you’re going to learn of another president claiming that another regime has broken “international law” so we must invade/bomb them for doing so and a huge majority of americans will agree because it’s “international law”.
