Blinken on ICC Warrants for:
•Putin: "Anyone who's a party to the ICC and has obligations should fulfill their obligations & turn over Putin."

•Netanyahu: "US rejects the ICC prosecutor’s application for arrest warrants for Israeli officials & Hamas."

Biden on ICC Warrants for:
•Putin: "The ICC warrants against Putin make a very strong point. He's clearly committed war crimes."

•Netanyahu: "The ICC prosecutor’s application for arrest warrants against Israeli leaders is outrageous."

Smh

If the US saw lack of ICC jurisdiction as a valid defense that exempts Israel from ICC prosecution, then US would not have welcomed ICC arrest warrants for Putin—who also rejects ICC jurisdiction. But instead the US happily welcomed ICC warrants against Putin, and stands by those warrants to this day.

International rules based order mandates consistency in law and the application of law—for opponents & allies alike. That's how justice is supposed to work.

BREAKING: ICC Prosecutor Karim Khan announces he is seeking arrest warrants for Hamas leadership Yahya Sinwar, Mohammed Deif, & Ismail Haniyeh, and Israeli leadership PM Benjamin Netanyahu & Defense Minister Yoav Gallant.

Both parties are charged with multiple specific war crimes. Both parties must stand trial. No one is above the law as this is how we protect international rules based order. Posting a detailed analysis soon.

I’m so glad public libraries already exist. Could you I magine trying to sell the idea of libraries to politicians in 2024?

“You want to build a large public complex on prime real estate that gives away free books & education & community events—paid for by our tax dollars? Are you crazy??”

In 2022 SCOTUS ruled 6-3 that public school teachers & other staff can lead students in prayer.

Now Louisiana will require all schools that receive public funding to display the Ten Commandments, including colleges and universities.

If it’s prayer these guys want, if you’re a public school teacher who wants to learn the Islamic call to prayer, i.e. the Adhaan, to teach your students, let me know.🙃

My latest:

SCOTUS has repeatedly ruled that police have no legal duty to protect us—so why do we keep throwing money at an org with no duty to keep us safe? And perhaps most importantly, how do we actually ensure public safety?

Cops have arrested 3000+ students & professors peacefully protesting. A reminder that police have no legal duty to protect us. This isn't clickbait—it's SCOTUS precedent.

BREAKING: Gov Abbot pardons Daniel Perry despite Perry's plan to kill Muslims & Black people—then succeeding in killing a BLM protestor (who was a Veteran). "All lives matter" crowd proudly celebrates killing Muslims & Black people.

A reminder once more that a system cannot fail those it was never meant to protect.

I’m incredibly proud of my wife Ayesha, owner of Equal Entrance, for having donated nearly $5000 of her small biz income to Gaza relief over the past 7 months.✊🏽

This powerful leader is Dr. Tiffany Willoughby-Herard, tenured Professor of Political Science at UC Irvine, arrested for protesting the atrocities the US Government is enabling upon Gaza.

When asked if she was concerned about jeopardizing her job, she replied, “What job do I have if the students don’t have a future?!”

Monday I published this article asking if Israel recognizes Palestine’s right to exist?
https://open.substack.com/pub/qasimrashid/p/honest-question-does-israel-recognize?r=fyvxf&utm_medium=ios

Hateful emails called me “antisemitic” for doubting Israel’s support of a 2 state solution

Netanyahu today: “A two state solution would be a reward for terrorists.”😐

I don’t need any apologies. I just need my tax dollars to stop funding this atrocity.
