So, Israel is included in our sovereignty. Got it.

Look at this guy trying to make sense of a GOP policy statement. You go!

They are all sophists first and foremost.

All the complaints about supposed violations of international law that the US has made in the past really ring hollow now that Johnson has said the quiet part out loud: international bodies are designed to control the "impoverished, barbaric" Global East and South, not the "enlightened" Global West.

Pretty sure only USA thinks it's above international bodies.

Well they did set a precedent when they walked into Iraq against the international bodies wishes.

All the big players learned that if the US won't play ball, they won't either.

And Israel, and any other country whose rulers decide that they disagree with the rest.

Everyone thinks they're above international bodies, but most don't pretend that they don't think so.

I mean, other than Exxon, Shell or BP.

And the Knesset.

And Putin.

But other than that!

That's why international relations and treaties are hard, since anyone can just decide they don't want to honor them any more. You need to make it enticing for all parties to stay committed somehow.

Maybe with T.G.I Fridays coupons?

Somebody get the UN on the phone, they’re going to want to hear this.

When did Israel become "our sovereignty"? 🤔

[-] [email protected] 14 points 3 months ago

Really? You did bury other countries sovereignty many times.

Pissing off the International Community is how we Strengthen Our Defenses AGAINST Terror Attacks!

Johnson, the guy who puts a specific rightwing Christianity over America’s sovereignty?
