Rania Khalek is joined by former UN human rights official Craig Mokhiber, whose recent Mondoweiss article, "Ushering in the age of impunity: Venezuela, Palestine, and the end of international law," unpacks how recent U.S. aggression from Venezuela to Gaza signals a dangerous unraveling of the post-World War II legal order.
We’ll discuss:
• What the U.S. attack on Venezuela reveals about the limits of global legal restraints.
• How the violence in Palestine fits into a broader pattern of unchecked power.
• The crisis facing international law and global institutions like the UN, ICC, and ICJ.
• What meaningful resistance and accountability might look like.
