The United Nations on Friday accused the United States of breaching international human rights law with a series of lethal strikes on suspected drug-trafficking vessels in the Caribbean and Eastern Pacific — the first time the U.N. has formally condemned the operations.
People follow it by agreement and the idea is they face sanctions if they don’t. It’s unlikely America will face direct sanctions. However they are unlikely to find many friendly partners moving forward. The more heinous acts, the less other countries can overlook it.
It’s not just USA. The more countries that skirt international law, the more others also do the same and the less others listen to America. Putin doesn’t care about international law when invading Ukraine. Then china stops caring about consequences for invading Taiwan etc.
It’s stuff like this that makes the international community more afraid of Trump. The grifting and grafting is an internal problem. The fascism is a humanity problem. The breakdown in rule of law is a global problem.
Not to mention that israel been breaching all international laws since it’s creation in 48
And how much of that has been enabled by US backing?
Before the USA, it was enabled by the British. Also all those western countries quickly recognized israel after terrorists attacks by zionists like King David hotel bombing and the nekba ethenic cleansing while today they have ton of conditions to effectively on the ground to back up a two state solution without even palestinians right to an army
Palestine is recognised by over 80% of UN States including all permanent security members except the USA. The biggest two Western countries that don’t recognise are Germany and Italy along with of course Israel.
It’s not really such an important thing. The impact would be for the USA to stop their support and for the EU to end their trade deal with Israel.
