The Mexican government controls the Mexican oil industry through Pemex, a state-owned enterprise, and subsidizes energy to reduce the cost to average Mexicans. But that doesn’t help International fossil fuel conglomerates like Exxon and Chevron, so the Biden administration is preparing to slap tariffs on Mexico in order for force President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador (AMLO) to bring gas prices up and in line with what the American companies charge.
Democracy Now! The International Criminal Court has issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for crimes against humanity and war crimes committed during Israel's assault on Gaza. The court also issued a warrant for Hamas's military chief Mohammed Deif, whom Israel said they killed in August. This is a major development on the international stage, says HuffPost correspondent Akbar Shahid Ahmed, particularly in its implications for U.S. culpability in Israeli war crimes. The Biden administration, as Netanyahu's "ultimate enabler," is visibly "totally alone" in its refusal to recognize Israel's crossing of "red lines," as even its ally nations who are party to the ICC are now legally required to cooperate with the court's decision.
