Reporter: How does this not violate the red line the president laid out

Kirby: We don’t want to see a major operation we haven’t seen one

Reporter: How many more charred corpses does he have to see before he considers a change in policy

Kirby: I take offense at the question.

All they do is lie:

"The Israeli government spokesperson denies that there were any tents in the area Israel bombed on Sunday."

Bidens White House Rejects Calls to Sanction ICC

The Biden administration has rejected calls for sanctions against the International Criminal Court (ICC) after it requested arrest warrants for Israeli officials, citing alleged war crimes in Gaza. This move has sparked significant controversy.

🗣 John Kirby: "We don't believe that sanctions against the ICC is the right approach here." Kirby emphasized that the Biden administration does not recognize the ICC's jurisdiction over Israel and does not support the arrest warrants against Prime Minister Netanyahu and Defense Minister Gallant.

🔴 Lawmakers Push for Sanctions: Despite the White House stance, a bipartisan group of Senators, including Joe Manchin and Mike Rounds, proposed visa bans and sanctions on ICC officials. Representatives Chip Roy and Brian Mast introduced measures in the House to force the President to implement sanctions if the ICC targets U.S. allies like Israel.

📝 Political Maneuvering: House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries highlighted ongoing bipartisan discussions on how to address the ICC's actions. The proposed Senate provision aims to formally reject the ICC's actions against Israeli officials.

🚨 Implications: With the White House ruling out sanctions, the future of U.S. policy towards the ICC remains uncertain. This decision could impact international views on the U.S.'s stance on accountability and justice in conflict zones.
