But the students have run up against the…

If you can get past the State Department's 'end-of-term school report' euphemisms, it now admits – after seven months of genocide – that Israel is probably using US weapons to commit war crimes in Gaza. That means the US is therefore breaking its own laws in continuing to supply…
