    Attorneys Warn Biden’s Support for Israeli Assault on Gaza Could Make Him Complicit in Genocide

    Lots of coulds and cans. They ARE complicit, but until someone gets persecuted under someone’s laws, this isn’t a CRIME.

    This seems like a reading comprehension issue on your part, for some reason you are conflating morally wrong and criminal.

      The article is from 2023. Would you like some updated articles about his legal complicity? I can provide.

      You don’t understand the difference between a ‘charge’ and a ‘crime.’ Whether or not you’ve been charged with committing it yet, you can still commit a crime. It’s just a violation of the law.

      Biden has committed a crime in violation of both international & domestic laws. He just hasn’t been charged yet.

      Still, that you think it’s a meaningful distinction to separate moral & legal crimes says a lot about you and your agenda. Do you allow those in the political party you oppose to make the same distinction?
