The PA is just controlled opposition for Israel.

That was then. This is **now**. I'm not saying things changed, but that they **can** change. It requires courage, strength, hope and fortitude.

Then you misunderstand why the US helped set it up in the first place.

Its not to keep the peace. Should it be? Oh yes, it should.

Its not about justice. Should it be? Again, yes.

It was set up to keep the USA, Britain, Russia, and others on the security council in power. In this way, the US flexing its might at the UN is par for the course.

Before the resolution passed, the chairs of the US House Foreign Affairs Committee and Senate Foreign Relations Committee suggested in a 31 March letter to UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres that any member state or UN entity supporting such a mechanism could face US sanctions.

"Make no mistake, any HRC member state or UN entity that supports an Israel-specific [international investigative mechanism] in any form will face the same consequences as the ICC faced for its blatant overreach and disregard for sovereign prerogatives," the letter said.

The USA does not belong in the UN.

Other than the obvious fuck America stuff, the PA is a bunch of sellouts for agreeing to this.

>assisted in investigation and prosecution of lower-level criminal perpetrators in the occupied Palestinian territories who the ICC is unlikely to focus on

Why does this sound like another way to attack palestinians rather than to stop genocide? I think I know...
