#Moskowitz is incorrect. #Hegseth is incorrect. The #USA is bound by international law. It's not really debatable. As to the 1977 protocols I & II, that is for the #Hague court of international law to decide whether it applies or not in the case of Trump / #Netanyahu wars of choice and aggression.

„Destruction of Final Litani Bridge Leaves Tens of Thousands at Risk.

(…) As the deliberate attack destroyed the last main operational crossing for civilians and aid, with the prospect of immense civilian harm, the attack should be investigated as a potential disproportionate attack on civilians, which would be a war crime.“

Video - Why US Policy Toward Cuba Violates International Law
https://peertube.world/w/fa5TjLFy31bJYYftPWiKFg
Duration - 19:24

[a #video about #Cuba from the #BellyOfTheBeast]

For more than six decades, #US policy toward #Cuba has relied on #EconomicWarfare instead of diplomacy. The US claims to target the #Cuban government but ends up hurting the lives of millions of civilians.

Int'l law expert Alfred de Zayas speaks to BotB on #Trump’s latest executive order, which allows him to slap tariffs on any country that ships #oil to Cuba, and how the policy violates #InternationalLaw. He explains the difference between #sanctions and unilateral coercive measures, and how the devastating measures are really a form of collective punishment.

“We are witnessing an assault on the #UN Charter, on international law, and on civilization itself,” warns Professor Alfred de Zayas.

“We are locked & loaded on your critical dual-use infrastructure, on your remaining power generation & on your #energy industry.…We’d rather not have to do it,” #Hegseth added, “but we’re ready to go at the command of our president & at the push of a button.”

Under #InternationalLaw, intentionally targeting a country’s energy infrastructure would constitute a #WarCrime.
