Socialist Abdul El-Sayed, the Democratic Socialist nominee for Michigan's Senate seat, is another proponent of "international law," and he proves exactly what it's really about: giving the global Left its way on issues. El-Sayed was asked about supporting military aid to Ukraine but not Israel, and said the difference was "international law." AES: International law. I believe we ought to be the first among equals to enforce international law. I don't think El-Sayed understands that any country following international law would find itself completely unable to win any modern war.
