State Department spokesman Matt Miller clashed with a reporter while criticizing the ICC's investigation into alleged war crimes in Israel and Palestine. Miller suggested that Palestinians should rely on Israeli investigations for any war crimes committed by Israel, implying that the ICC's involvement is unnecessary. Lee: "Who does have... jurisdiction here" Miller: "Israel" Lee: "So if Palestinians have complaints they have to go to Israeli courts" Miller: "We have jurisdiction" Lee: "I’m sorry how do you have jurisdiction...the U.S. has no jurisdiction here" Source: HalalFlowshow more

Human rights lawyer and former UN official Craig Mokhiber: “Miller is openly lying here. #Palestine has been a member of the ICC since 2015, and ICC jurisdiction over acts committed on Palestinian territory has long been confirmed. Yet another case of the US trying to undercut international law on behalf of its oppressive foreign ally.”

no wonder, he reminds me of Gargamelle , vicious like him

We can send you some videos to see war crimes for yourself. Israel is guilty.

Someone should have asked him, what about the VETO against Palestinian having their own state …

I cant bare to listen that shameless

Payaso💯🤡

I can't. Too much hypocrisy! The Biden administration can't say they want Palestine to be a state when they are the ones blocking recognition of Palestine in the United Nations. And to defer to Israel is absurd. It's basically a terror state now. The Palestinians deserve to have justice!

“Long-term we agree with you that the Palestinians have the right to a State”. “We have our processes”. Well, long-term, while your processes, and investigations led by the perpetrator, are following their course, there won’t be any Palestinian left to have a State, and there won’t be homes for the Palestinian population to inhabit within the country where that State should be established. Shame on the United States for its complicity in the #Genocide_of_Palestinians and their #EthnicCleansing by the criminal State of Israel. The global community is watching.

When he say "we have jurisdiction" he mean as israelis or as American ? i am lost ?

Did anyone notice him saying that the the prosecutor didn’t “come to Isreal” “as planned”.??? Is Israel in the United States or the is the United States in Israel??! I’m 😕 🤔🧐🤨

So US has jurisdiction but the ICC doesn’t? Umm yeah ok

These guys are such clowns. 🤡

CRIMINAL

investigate themselves, sounds legit🙄

Sounds dodgy

Israel have jurisdiction. Hilarious 🤣!!

That's some awkward tap-dancing

Shameless hypocrisy

ICC should arrest these American war criminals too!

Matt Lee is the best! His persistence and occasionally needed comic relief make these briefing slightly more bearable. And his slightly bumbling personna is just that - a personna. He actually has tons of experience and knows what's what.

I can't imagine who doesn't hate the US by now. WE have jurisdiction over war crimes in Gaza? God, please humble the USA; we are insufferable. Lord have mercy. 🙏

My god he’s tied himself in knots there and inadvertently admitted that what’s happening to Palestinians is being done with American support, how utterly shameful are they. Well done to that journalist for calling him out.

The ICC has had jurisdiction in Palestine since 2015.

Miller is openly lying here. #Palestine has been a member of the ICC since 2015, and ICC jurisdiction over acts committed on Palestinian territory has long been confirmed. Yet another case of the US trying to undercut international law on behalf of its oppressive foreign ally.

ICJ should investigate the USA role in the GAZA Genocide

I can’t stand this criminal taking !!! Unbelievable

The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.

What an absolute clusterfuck

They are completely narked because Karim Khan blindsided them by making his statement on mainstream media. They wanted Khan to go to Isreal so they could prep him on what to say. The tide is turning.

So this is what happens when zionists are challenged. They mumble and speak redundantly, then becime hostile, and their wrathy true face appears. Well done

The Keystone cops would be proud of this administration. So the US agreed with the ICC when they put out a warrant last year on Putin and wanted to enforce it themselves, but when the ICC does the same thing to Bibi they have “no jurisdiction” and are evil. Hypocrisy much.
