100%FedUP "The International Criminal Court (ICC) issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant.
"The ICC also issued an arrest warrant for Hamas leader Ibrahim Al-Masri, accusing each individual of war crimes and crimes against humanity in the 13-month Gaza conflict.
"According to Reuters, the ICC judges said there were reasonable grounds to believe Netanyahu and Gallant used “starvation as a method of warfare” as part of a “widespread and systematic attack against the civilian population of Gaza.” . . .

US senator vows legislation to punish nations who work with ICC after Israel arrest warrants
"Republican US Sen. Lindsey Graham vowed to introduce legislation Thursday that would punish any nation that cooperates with the International Criminal Court (ICC) after it issued arrest warrants for Israeli officials.
"Graham said in a lengthy X post that it would be "a huge mistake" for the US to not react strongly against the action, saying that without doing so the US would be "conceding that they have jurisdiction over the United States."
" 'We cannot let the world believe for a moment that this is a legitimate exercise of jurisdiction by the Court against Israel because to do so means we could be next," he said.
" 'I will be introducing legislation that puts other countries on notice – If you aid and abet the ICC after their action against the State of Israel, you can expect consequences from the United States. Any nation that joins with the ICC after this outrage is a partner in a reckless act that tramples the rule of law," he added.
"The Hague-based court announced the arrest warrants for Netanyahu and Gallant earlier in the day "for crimes against humanity and war crimes committed from at least 8 October 2023 until at least 20 May 2024," when ICC prosecutor Karim Khan sought the warrants.
"In doing so, it also unanimously rejected Israel's challenges to jurisdiction under articles 18 and 19 of the Rome Statute." . . .
All praise to Biden's handlers. TD
