A former United Nations (UN) official, who resigned last year in protest at the Israeli regime’s ongoing genocidal war on the Gaza Strip and the US and its allies’ support for the onslaught, keeps denouncing Washington’s complicity.
“US policy in Gaza is not a ‘failure.’ It is a terrible success,” Craig Mokhiber, who used to run the New York chapter of the Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, wrote in a post on X, former Twitter, on Sunday, Press TV reports.
“The US is a successful co-perpetrator in Genocide,” added the prominent human rights lawyer and justice campaigner.
Mokhiber dismissed the US’ pretenses of opposition to the brutal aggression that has claimed the lives of nearly 40,800 Palestinians, mostly women and children, since its onset on October 7.
Citing an instance of such ostensible American policy, he pointed to the US’s so-called intermediary role in the ongoing negotiations that are aimed at bringing about a truce in the war.
Mokhiber described Washington’s participation in the talks as a “charade,” referring to its refusal to exert effective pressure on Tel Aviv towards agreeing to a truce deal, despite its being Tel Aviv’s biggest benefactor and ally.
