A U.S. State Department spokesperson told reporters on Thursday that the United States disagrees with Amnesty International’s new report accusing Israel of carrying out genocide in the Gaza Strip.
“We disagree with the conclusions of such a report,” spokesperson Vedant Patel said a day after the human rights group released the document. “We have said previously and continue to find that the allegations of genocide are unfounded.”
In the 296-page report released Wednesday—titled, “You Feel Like You Are Subhuman”: Israel’s Genocide Against Palestinians in Gaza—Amnesty International found through its research and legal analysis “sufficient basis to conclude that Israel committed, during the nine-month period under review, prohibited acts under Articles II (a), (b), and © of the Genocide Convention, namely killing, causing serious bodily or mental harm, and deliberately inflicting on Palestinians in Gaza conditions of life calculated to bring about their physical destruction in whole or in part.”
This 296 page report is unfounded. No, we will not elaborate. Thank you
Unfounded is strong. More like it doesn’t sync with our vibes today.
This is the kind of banana-republic reality-denial kangaroo-court state department people expected under Trump.
I expected nothing from Democrats and I’m still let down.

About as meaningful a statement, the US has zero credibility to throw around here.

But keep disagreeing you dumb fucks
They’re not dumb. They know what they’re doing. Their goal is genocide
Of course we do, the US has been literally designed to be Israel’s body guard. On the global stage, we are the equivalent to the big, dumb henchman who doesn’t think or care about his own interests as long as his boss is protected
…cause it’s inconvenient.
I mean, Joe has a month. Couldn’t just be like, yeah, it’s a genocide.
Sheesh. Final deflating feeling I guess.
This clown was funnier when he was on SNL.
Well how else do you go about conducting a war?
