Open the door to this kind of behavior because I'm sure what's on the minds of some of those people is wait a second, like how come us, because we're a small country, Serbia, we get singled out, our leaders end up dying in The Hague, but not Netanyahu, not Putin, right?

And so again, it speaks to the need to strengthen international justice and international law across the board.
voice-verified
Um, this should be a project for hopefully knock on wood a next democratic president.
voice-verified
Yeah, this is a big story.
voice-verified
I mean, ca 'cause again it it it shows you and we we talked to Larry Wright about twenty five years since nine eleven, like the I don't know, thirty whatever years since the nineties, uh in Bosnia.
voice-verified
It shows you how far we've kind of fallen in a way, right?
voice-verified
Because this in the way that that that the system worked.
voice-verified
This was the case of the system working.

voice-verified
Um, but what it does, the the United Kingdom, let's be very clear, as the usually the closest ally of the United States has been like a pretty stalwart supporter of Israel.
voice-verified
To break and Miliban used language that there's ethnic cleansing, that there's terrorism happening in the West Bank.
voice-verified
It shows that there's really nobody left backing Israel and its government, then the United States, and then kind of like a weird eclectic group of kind of Trumpy people, right?
voice-verified
Um and uh so so that matters.
