I wonder if they understand what they’re encouraging by making the punishment for protests harsher than the punishments for direct action…not that that’s any of my business…

I don’t disagree, it’s just nice to see my country pushing for any tiny amount of adherence to international laws in this specific case and I hope we see more of it.

The US stands with Israel, but we aren’t going to stand by while they commit war crimes. Good on the Biden administration for forcing this course correction. I hope to keep seeing more and stronger evidence of our commitment to human rights and the international order during this war.
