US Arms Transfers to Israel During ICJ Genocide Proceedings

Continued US arms transfers to Israel during ICJ genocide proceedings, including emergency bypasses of Congressional review and the rescission of the NSM-20 safeguard. This raises complicity in war crimes and crimes against humanity for which the ICC has issued arrest warrants (Rome Statute Art. 25(3)(d) and customary aiding and abetting). Complicity in genocide is alleged on the basis of the UN Commission of Inquiry's findings but is unadjudicated.
