ICC arrest warrants: Netanyahu is certainly a criminal, but …
There’s a reasonable basis to believe, when it comes to Israel-Palestine, that justice is not ultimately an option. Yesterday, the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his former defence minister, Yoav Gallant, “for crimes against humanity and war crimes committed from at least 8 October 2023 until at least 20 May 2024”, as per the ICC press release. Among the war crimes charges against Netanyahu and Gallant are that “both individuals intentionally and knowingly deprived the civilian population in Gaza of objects indispensable to their survival, including food, water, and medicine and medical supplies, as well as fuel and electricity, from at least 8 October 2023 to 20 May 2024”. And while a United Nations committee recently found Israel’s methods of warfare in the Gaza Strip to be “consistent with genocide”, the ICC has stopped short of calling Israel out on this front, instead specifying that the court “could not determine that all elements of the crime against humanity of extermination were met”. Speaking of sexy, Al Jazeera has noted that, as a result of Bensouda’s ongoing perceived insolence, Israeli spy chief Yossi Cohen “intensified the covert war on the court that Israel has been waging since Palestine joined the ICC in 2015”.
