A lawsuit led by Palestinians and Palestinian Americans that accused President Joe Biden and other top U.S. officials of enabling genocide in Gaza was rejected Monday by a federal appeals court, which upheld a lower court’s dismissal of the lawsuit.

The three-judge panel of the Ninth Circuit Court ruled that courts cannot review the executive branch’s decisions on foreign policy, even when there is a risk of breaking domestic and international law.

    Again take a civics lesson on how the US government works. Congress has the power to keep the president in line (impeachment), Congress approves spending (aid to Israel), and Congress writes the laws.

    So before you scream morals, figure out who you should be screaming at.

        I’m aware, but you seem to have an agenda. Because, once again you are manufacturing hate in the wrong direction…

          So you are aware and still make arguments which you know are false?

          I wonder which of us has an agenda here.

            I didn’t make any false arguments, I tried to educate you with facts.

            Which you don’t want to hear, because you have an agenda.

            Good day! And blocked.
